Song of the Day: The Isley Brothers “Live It Up (Cratebug Edit)”

Cratebug

I love edits, dancers love em’ too, but the fact of the matter is most of them suck. Fortunately there are a bunch of solid re-editors out there: Rahaan, Jamie 3:26 and Cratebug, to name a but a few, who take great songs and give them just the right touch to squeeze new excitement out of them without leaving gaudy fingerprints all over the place. “Live It Up” by The Isley Brothers didn’t need fixing but dubbing out the second half of the song, upping the volume and staggering the beats makes the song shine for a new generation.
