The Vibetree Project feat. RAW unveils "Doodat - FH Mix"

Featuring from the The Vibetree Project feat. RAW new single "Doodat – FH Mix," a 1998 gem that's boldly stepping into 2024 with the kind of swagger only the grooves of time can lend. The larger European labels didn't give it a second thought as it didn't sound European enough (back then, a Nana, Down Low, or Papa Bear were ruling the airwaves), but this track was undoubtedly ahead of its time. Now, 26 years later, turntables have turned, and  "Doodat - FH Mix" feels like it could have been built explicitly for today's global, genre-blending playlists.

"Doodat - FH Mix" envelops you in inviting rhythmic memories but does not fixate on the past. The production is immaculate, the energy is electric, and the vibe is, dare we say, timeless. It's rare to hear the spirit of '90s hip-hop-meets-euro-funk presented with today's language. RAW's influence can be heard on the track, lending it that feeling and force; it moves across the beat as if it never stepped off the dance floor.

What makes "Doodat - FH Mix" exciting, however, is that it isn't retro just for the sake of it; it holds up against today's genre-hopping bangers just fine. It's catchy without being cliched, funky without being showy, and deep groovy without bragging. The "Doodat - FH Mix" polish on it gives Tell Me where it needs just a tad more life, whereas this treatment makes it instantly playlist-able, whether you're a longtime fan of '90s European urban pop or just hearing this wave for the first time. The Vibetree Project feat. RAW couldn't have chosen a more opportune time to bring  "Doodat - FH Mix" back. If this is a sleeper hit from 1998, it's wide awake now and ready to move bodies and climb charts.
