Fatboy Slim & Daniel Steinberg’s collab single ‘bus stop please’ is a unique 80’s revival of a 70’s dance

Following on from the landmark 500th release on Southern Fried, which saw him drop ‘Role Model’ back in May, label frontman and unmistakable dance music icon Fatboy Slim returns with another larger-than-life dancefloor jam as he joins prolific Berlin-based talent and Arms & Legs imprint boss Daniel Steinberg on 8th November for quirky vocal-led club cut ‘Bus Stop Please’.

Occasionally, a record rolls around that jumps out and grabs you. This is one of those occasions. At its core, ‘Bus Stop Please’ is an impressive fusion of modern-day Fatboy Slim flavours and the distinctive sound that has seen Daniel Steinberg championed by the likes of Defected, Club Sweat, Play It Down and countless others. It’s full-on, in your face and full of beans from the outset with chunky-bottomed grooves, gluey bass tones, modulating synths and an unforgettable vocal centrepiece for an energetic ride that will keep you moving from start to finish.

The Bus Stop is basically an actual dance culture by the Fat Back Band, it’s like soul version of line dancing. The track is like an 80’s revival of a 70’s dance. Norman took the Charlie Green Bus Stop sample and merges it over Daniel Steinberg’s original track ‘Albatross’ that was sent to Norman as a B-side, however this is where this track started to take form.

Accompanying the release of ‘Bus Stop Please’ is an immersive AI-generated music video created in collaboration with Omar Karim, a visionary creative director and AI image maker renowned for his innovative storytelling that has earned him a reputation for pushing creative boundaries with some of the most notable brands on the planet. The ‘Bus Stop Please’ music video aims to hypnotise viewers into doing a random act of kindness every time they hear the track. Making the world a little better, one play at a time. It’s not only a Music video; it’s a social experiment, an artistic statement, and a mesmerising experience that only Fatboy Slim can create.

‘Bus Stop Please’ exemplifies a new-age sonic palette that goes against the grain of massproduced, cookie-cutter dance records, instead electing an approach that continues to burst with creativity, fun and continuous, peak-time moments of hands-in-the-air euphoria.

The release also coincides with a significant month of shows for Fatboy Slim, landing on the same day as his ‘All Back To Minehead’ weekender kicks off, before heading into a massive double-header weekend with Warehouse Project in Manchester on 23rd and Drumsheds London on 24th November.
