Mungo's Hi Fi, Gardna, Catching Cairo - Back In The Dayz

Known for their unique approach to reggae, Glasgow’s Mungo’s Hi Fi have always been influenced by wider soundsystem and dance music culture. They’ve distilled this passion into new single Back In The Dayz, a homage to 90s rave, jungle and breakbeat, featuring Bristolian emcee Gardna and sultry London singer Catching Cairo.
Over a jungle-esque break and a bassline sounding like a vibrating warehouse roof, Gardna and Catching Cairo share evocative memories of raves and dances they’ve enjoyed. The sounds, friendships, fashions and refreshments that connect the communal party experience flash by in a heady cocktail hit of nostalgia and optimism. The lyrics were co-written by London reggae singer, and Mungo’s collaborator, Kiko Bun.
Like all Mungo’s productions, Back In The Dayz is simultaneously looking back and facing forward. It’s a love letter to the rich traditions of UK rave culture, but also a glimpse towards the time when we can all be free to party again.

[@Gardnauk]

Thanks for the love guys! A few of you asked for the LYRICS. So here they are :)
Chrous:
I wanna I wanna rave like back in the day
Won’t hold back in the night time rolling no mistake
With my crew at the front you know that’s how we play
Take me back to the time, gyal two step to the baseline and rhyme, line and rhyme
I wanna I wanna rave like back in the day
All the way up no problem let the big sound play
I’m allowed in with my bottle of rum and my lemonade
Take me back to the time gyal two step to the baseline and rhyme, line and rine
VERSE 1:
I wanna rave it’s like back in the day.
I wanna rave like I’ve travelled through time.
I used to wear trackies and caps in the rave.
didn’t wear smart shoes wore my nikes.
I just came through to say big up and safe.
I’m looking like the Yellow smiley face
I was the king at just riding the wave.
I can confirm that not much of that’s changed.
I wanna rave like back in the day my DJ was on acetate.
Gal move to the B-line wine up the waist, I want the speaker in my face.

Lets go some next place just for the day, I wanna rewind that decade.
Omni trio with renegade snares on the remix it was Foul Play. Ay.


Flashback to the late nights on the raz,
Main Room inna Fabric Lets go champ
Rewind to the grey mornings in Victoria station gone to H.A.M
BANG, Hitting a new city with the gang of course I’d walk past that doorman
These times I weren’t touring, nor were my friends who got real jobs now..
I wanna rave like Back in the Day
I wanna rave like way back in my times
No guest list I’ll stand in the line.
Vinyl mixing double dropping the Nine
I wanna I wanna dance like I’m 16 again.
I wanna sack my plans tomorrow.
The old me and me meet again.
Standard procedures follow....
CHORUS 2:
I wanna I wanna rave like back in the day
Won’t hold back in the night time rolling no mistake
With my crew at the front you know that’s how we play
Take me back to the time, gyal two step to the baseline and rhyme, line and rhyme
I wanna I wanna rave like back in the day
All the way up no problem let the big sound play
I’m allowed in with my bottle of rum and my lemonade
Take me back to the time gyal two step to the baseline and rhyme, line and rhyme
VERSE 2
Lemme see you shaking your boots come back to your old school back to your roots.
I wanna see ya craziest moves, I was never too cool when I was yout. No way
So come and buss a shape in the room maybe me and my group are the waviest dudes
Give a man saves on a zoot then straight in the room with my face in the scoops.
Do you wanna go out out, like wise
Lemme see who’s about now my guys.
Holler all the girls like, My size
Sounds of the Mungo’s Hi Fi
All the late nights and bright lights
We the guys with the wide eyes
Double rum with a sliced lime
Ain't it funny how time flies
Wanna rave like back in the day
I Wanna rave like I’ve travelled through time
Smoking area chatting away
Think tonight has reached new heights.
I Wanna dance with all my mates again,
Don’t care what’s on tomorrow
I have this sudden urge to be,
Back down the long dark tunnel .....

[@Rob-en1bi]

Someone correct me if I'm wrong or is this song and MASSIVE song underated?
No one else has lyrics about the special times of raving at Fabric and mentions tunes like the nine and renegade snares ect..
So for me this song and back in the day really mean something. For me this is really creative and allows me to remember back in the day which for me was around 2003.
As I said no one else is doing this so big up for flying the flag for us people in the UK that had that experience back then.
