"Bigger than Prince" by Green Velvet

Green Velvet's latest release is namedropping Prince ("Walk around like you're bigger than Prince") and the Hot Since 82 remix is now at No.2 at the Beatport.com charts (Beatport is the world's leading EDM download store).

Anyone has heard that track yet?

Like it. Nice and sparse. The offbeat snare is a nod to Prince.

I have, I like all three versions. Remixes by Hot Since 82 (this one holds the no.2 position currently) and The Martinez Brothers.

Lots of Linndrum sounds used in the GV version... cool

Love the track and remixes.

I think it's great.

BTW, you know the t-shirt that goes with the song, right?

Here Green Velvet is wearing it! Brilliant guy.

99% of my posts are ironic. Maybe this post sides with the other 1%.

Yes. Dressed up as a "kakker". He's not a natural orange head wink

Joost is a big fan of Green Velvet and got him to spin at Valtifest 2013.
