Brazilian Powerhouse Alok Releases “The Club is Jumpin'” “Future Funk” Remix Destiny’s Child Classic
While we’ve taken a break from this trend for a bit, it’s about time we had another label boss pop in with a classic single remix. On our latest visit over to CONTROVERSIA we are checking out “The Club is Jumpin'”, the latest single from Alok. Currently experiencing his global breakout moment, Alok is currently one of the most successful and trendsetting producers currently in the business. With a lengthy catalog of remixes and originals for everyone from The Rolling Stones and Zara Larsson to Jason Derulo and Tove-Lo, Alok has quickly made a worldwide community of dedicated listeners that completely line up with Alok’s mantra. To put a few things in perspective, Alok has over 20 million monthly streams on Spotify, as well as being the 2nd most followed electronic producer on Instagram. The accolades never stop, as in 2021 Alok was even named the 4th most popular DJ in the world according to the DJMAG Top 100. Yeah, when Alok is a part of the production, you have to stop and listen.
While we’ve been consistently vibing with R3HAB’s mix of Ginuwine’s “Pony”, we’ve also been eagerly awaiting the next nostalgic single to get a fresh coat of EDM paint. This time Alok delivers “The Club is Jumpin'”, a modern EDM coating of paint for Destiny;s Child’s 2000s hit “Jumpin’ Jumpin'”. While the original single used the late 90s early 2000s electropop meets R&B sound, Alok takes his version in a completely different direction. Embracing his Brazilian background, Alok throws “The Club is Jumpin'” directly into the tech house pool, reintroducing the sounds of Destiny’s Child to an entirely new audience. A superb mix to add to the growing catalog, “The Club is Jumpin'” is the result of tech-house beats mashing with enough funk to transform the sound into a new “Future Funk” form. There is no doubt in our minds that Alok just dropped the next dancefloor killer and we couldn’t be more thrilled to catch it at launch.
