Mr. C and Adultnapper’s big gamble?

Mr. C and Adultnapper’s big gamble?

It takes a brave soul to attempt to rap over a minimal house record, but if anyone was going to do it it might as well be The Shamen’s lovable rogue Mr. C [a].

The Londoner’s latest Sycophant Slags single ‘Keep Off’ (co-produced with Adultnapper), valiantly attempts to inject some fun into the minimal sound with rhymes such as “Mr. C’s in the house...everybody go rocking the party right”, lyrics that will probably cause the average chin-stroking minimal fan to snicker.

However, with the track’s Sky’s the limit chorus coming straight off D-Train’s 1982 dance hit ‘Keep On’, it’s clear that Mr. C and Adultnapper had their tongues firmly inside their cheeks when they put the track together.

As this hazy video shows, it was probably an afterparty eureka moment that went a wee bit too far. Good on ‘em for trying to shake up the minimal scene though.

The jury’s out. We wait earnestly to see if Mr. C and Adultnapper’s big gamble pays off - with remixes from Reboot and Wighnomy Brothers, they might just get away with it.
