Artist: ARKLEY
Release: WIGGLE IT (ACID GROOVES)
Label: SPIRIT OF RAVE
Date: 24 MARCH 2023
Scottish DJ and producer Arkley launches his new maximalist 90s rave-inspired EP ExtRaveRted with a warehouse party vibed version of 2 In A Room's hip house classic 'Wiggle It (Acid Grooves)'. The stripped production captures the visceral energy of early acid house, with raw M1 organ bass, piano stabs and 303 squelches. The rapped vocals boast with charismatic swagger "it'll take control of your mind and make you move your behind".
'Wiggle It (Acid Grooves)' is the first track from the forthcoming ExtRaveRted EP on Spirit Of Rave Records. The jet black and luminous Keith Haring-influenced artwork reflects the urgent attack and release of the music, building towards that 3am euphoria of losing it together on the dancefloor. This follows Arkley's Channel A EP, which was heavily supported by BBC Introducing, Notion, Four/Four and Snack Magazine, and tastemaker DJs including Judge Jules.
