Flynninho F__K UP Remix and 140 Bpm Edit
Can’t say enough about this remix. With blast of future bounce, wobble and electro basslines. This vocoded vocal take elevates the original to another level of epic proportions. Flynninho does not disappoint and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for his rising producer.
NITESHADE Remix
Canadian producer NITESHADE has been taking the scene by storm and we can’t say enough of the showcase in his sound that is put on display with his take on ‘I Wanna Know’. With a dash of garage influence, we approve!

Control Room Remix
We can’t stop dancing to this bouncy, groovy and sultry take on the original stems. With a nice ambient and uplifting emotional break that only connects back into the signature Control Room sound. These guys are going places.

Atwood Remix
1/3 of the SSB. Atwood has years of experience behind him. Being no strange to the likes of the eclectic. Atwood’s rework of this original has us speechless. Foreign sounding but with dashes of trap, melodic guitars, and rhodes. We have this on repeat.

Andy Villa Remix
Another member to the SSB crew. Andy Villa’s dark and progressive take on ‘I Wanna Know’ is something of it’s own caliber. with a driving sub bass throughout the newly adapted arpeggio running through to its climatic drop. We can’t get enough of this one either.

Red Dynasty Remix
A dreamy take on the break and chords. The Red Dynasty boys have their signature on this tune without a doubt. Staying true to house form, we can’t get enough appreciation for this sound arrangement. With the leads connecting back to the grooves. Let us know what you think.
