      @@Cosmo-Kramer In the BTS, the bar owner said they had to open by a certain time. Thus the time crunch. A little graphic popped up in the BTS video, saying, "Challenge accepted." It goes without saying that Ren and his team always work well under pressure. A similar thing happened with Hi Ren--but they were only given half an hour to do their final take (by the landlord who owned the property).

    Recorded in Bar Valentino in Brighton. The girls, Sylvia Mwenze and Scarlett Fae are also from Brighton as is the bassist Kai Lacey(I think). It took only 10 days from Ren hearing the song by Jungle, through getting the backing group together to rehearsing and finally shooting the video.

    Back on 74 is an EDM track by Jungle.
    Ren just keeps leveling up! He took an EDM song he loves and changed it so it has more of a jazzy/bluesy sound to it throws in naughty bars real quick and transitions into a beautiful stripped down cover of part of an iconic song from The Police and it just works and sounds amazing!!! I can't think of any other artist that can currently do this type of genre bending and performing live. On top of all of that let's film it as a one shot video!
    If you haven't reacted to Ren's Fred Again Mash up that came out 2 weeks prior to this one, you should definitely react to that one. It's also on another level. (Just for reference it's a song where Ren takes 5 songs from one of his current favorite EDM producers, Fred Again, and creates 1 song from those 5.

      I agree but MrBoyd music is going to want some 💲and your paid request goes into a queue. I haven't heard him for the last year do anything but paid requests. So yea, that's that 😎

      Back as in..... someone ponied up some 💲and went into a queue. Probably got the request when it dropped. I haven't heard him do anything but 💲requests in a year.
