Song of the Week – “Planet of the Bass” by DJ Crazy Times and Ms. Biljana Electronica

DJ Crazy Times and Ms. Biljana Electronica – Planet of the Bass

What else could be the song of the week since “Planet of the Bass” is already the Song of the Summer?!?! The parody of 90s Eurodance is actually performed by comedian Kyle Gordon with singer Chrissi Poland. Audrey Trullinger plays Ms. Biljana in the video although a proliferation of Biljanas have appeared in Gordon’s TikTok clips (much as 90s dance acts replaced hired various models to lipsynch in their videos).  I have to confess that I think the broken English is overdone but the song captures the spirit and enthusiasm of 90s Eurodance tracks and it’s an absolute banger.
