Westbam - You Need The Drugs (&ME Remix) [Keinemusik]

Chances are you’ve heard this new &ME offering before. He installed it throughout his last touring months as one of the most sought-after and unsuccessfully Shazamed moments. And again, you know the original material he is tackling – Westbam’s 2013 classic “You Need The Drugs” featuring Psychedelic Furs’ Richard Butler. While the original is the ultimate embodiment of an anthem to that desolate, but still glorious, after-hours exhaustion, that many of us know all too well, &ME’s version feels like a preservation of that intense emotional sentiment of the tune coupled with a more amplified effectiveness for the dancefloor. It shows in the groove, which displays a bit more muscle, in the stripped-down and more present bassline and in the overall dynamic arrangement. &ME takes the track from a 7 am taxi ride car stereo right back to the club, right onto a sweat-drenched, jam-packed dancefloor, so to speak.
