New Release: Lady Waks & Hardy Hard feat Afrika Bambaataa “Shake It”

MENU MUSIC presents...
Lady Waks & Hardy Hard feat Afrika Bambaataa “Shake It”
+ Atomic Hooligan Remix
+ Rico Tubbs Bonus Beats Mix (Digital only)
Menu012 - 12” & Digital release

RELEASE DATE: SEPT 22nd 2008

Menu’s latest offering is nothing short of an international sparing match of epic proportions. On the A side, you have the dynamic, hit making pairing of Lady Waks (Russia) & Hardy Hard (Germany) alongside the man credited with inventing Hip Hop Afrika Bambaataa (USA). Then on the flip you have a remix from Menu Music co-boss men and globetrotting fly boys Atomic Hooligan (UK). Then as a special gift for all you beat hungry heads, there is a bonus beat Baltimore work out from Rico Tubbs (Finland). Would you expect any less from Menu.... at this point in the game, you would be foolish too.

“Shake It” has been doing the business for about 6 months now. Tried and tested by the best to great results across the world. Think Breakbeat, Hip Hop, Miami Bass and Techno Grooves squished together in a shot glass, set on fire then swallowed back by a crowd of 5000 punters in St. Petersburg, and you have something that comes close to the energy of this track.

Then flip it over for a classic Hooligan - half breaks half house punching bag session. Then for you digital heads, we have a Rico Tubbs short but sweet bonus beats for you. In typical Rico style this is straight up bang, boom beats and samples. Do not miss out.

DJ Support
Atomic Hooligan, Jay Cunning, Deekline, Stanton Warriors, Rennie Pilgrim, Rico Tubbs, Lady Waks, Drammatic Twins, Boogie Army, Westbam, Freestylers.
General Midi “All 3 mixes are KILLER!”
Utah Saints “Will hammer this one in the sets”
