Ain't it, ain't it, good, good

Gotta keep moving, gotta keep grooving
Can't stay under, I gotta get over
It's the key to livin'
Gotta keep moving, gotta keep grooving
Can't stay under, I gotta get over
It's the key to livin'

It's the key to movin' on
The key to movin'
The key to bein' strong

Gotta keep groovin'
Yeah, yeah

Song Production Information

beatmania maniac-tracks Booklet

r24bm

Unfortunately I can't tell you about the vocalist in detail due to international circumstances.
There's also gossip here and there that she was an incredibly influential figure.
UK-based producer TOMOKI HIRATA's unique groove and sound is definitely "Western music".

beatmania THE FINAL

TOMOKI HIRATA

I have a very deep emotional attachment to this song.
I produced an album in 1998, the year when the 2-step movement began, but singer Sandra Escoffery passed away before its release.
Her catchy vocals and the magnitude of your requests have allowed this song to traverse through beatmania's history, I feel.
I plan on including a new mix of it on my soon-to-be-released new album, as well.
I'll also add that her younger siblings, Michelle and Shaun, have grown to become prominent singers, putting out songs with Artful Dodger and MJ Cole that became major UK hits.

Video Production Information
