Ever since Groove Armada released Superstylin’ in 2001, it has been leant on as an easy track to delight thousands of people — if not tens of thousands. A crowd pleaser in the purest sense, it practically drags people in like magnets. Just look at Glastonbury this year, where the DJ duo’s more intimate set at Stonebridge Bar had to be cancelled due to crowd concerns.
So imagine the joy last night when 250 people in a crowded, sweaty room in Walthamstow heard the very first seconds of that tell-tale lyrical sample, revelling in the intimacy of it all. Now imagine it gets mixed into Bicep’s Glue, before Underworld’s Born Slippy.
