Wongo Returns with Summer Anthem, ‘Take Me To The Rave’
Gold Coast dance music heavyweight Wongo is back with a track that’s set to ignite dancefloors across Australia this summer. His new single, Take Me to The Rave, is a high-energy homage to his childhood heroes, Basement Jaxx. Blending a bass-heavy UK sound with the pulse of house and techno, the track is primed to bring heat to every DJ set on his national tour.
Joining Wongo on this track is Twin Turbo, another Gold Coast local, whose vocals—recorded spontaneously in one take—capture the raw, spontaneous vibe of the song. Wongo describes the track as speed house, with funky basslines laid down by a guitarist friend, adding even more grit to this rave-ready anthem.
“Basement Jaxx were such a huge part of my childhood. They were the ‘band’ I was into before I learned what electronic music meant. The thing that really made me fall in love with them is their use of wacky samples that maybe shouldn’t go together, mixed with great arrangements, funny concepts and mixing of live and electronic sounds.” – Wongo.
Beyond producing bangers, Wongo also co-headlines the popular Need2Freak party series alongside his best mate, Little Fritter. Known for transforming unconventional spaces into high-energy rave zones, Need2Freak will soon go international with events in Bali, New Zealand, and even a cruise ship party in the Caribbean.
For fans of fresh, energetic dance music and unforgettable parties, Wongo’s Take Me to The Rave and his upcoming shows promise an unmissable experience this summer.
