This latest version brings together Jocelyn Brown and Incognito with a fresh disco-leaning mix from Bert Bevans, a figure whose roots run deep through the foundations of dance music culture.

Bevans’ history matters here. Coming up in New York during the formative years of disco, surrounded by names like David Mancuso, Nicky Siano and Larry Levan, his approach has always been about movement, flow and connection rather than quick impact.

That influence carries through this mix.

The groove is warm and steady, built around classic disco sensibilities. Nothing feels rushed. Instead, it unfolds gradually, giving space for the vocals to sit naturally while the rhythm section keeps things locked in.

Jocelyn Brown’s vocal still does the heavy lifting. It is instantly recognisable and sits comfortably over the arrangement, while Incognito’s musicality adds depth without overcomplicating the structure.

Bevans does not try to modernise the track for the sake of it. Instead, he leans into what already works. The result feels less like a rework and more like a respectful extension of a record that already carries weight.

This is not about reinventing a classic. It is about understanding why it works and letting that speak for itself.

A warm, disco-leaning mix that stays true to the original spirit while keeping things firmly playable.
