Delinquent ft. K-Cat: 'My Destiny'

The trouble with the bassline house scene is that it's so inherently retrogressive. The likes of 'Heartbroken' and 'What's It Gonna Be', number two hits both, don't want to move dance music forward or put a new spin on the old UK garage sound; they just want to take us back to the halcyon days of DJ Pied Piper and Shanks & Bigfoot.

'My Destiny', a hook-up between knob-twiddlers Delinquent and vocalist K-Cat, is a case in point. Gliding from R&B-tinged verses to a chorus reminiscent of Sweet Female Attitude's 'Flowers', it sounds as though it's been stuck in the recycle bin on Delinquent's laptop since 2001. Its rightful home? Track 15 on an old 2-Step compilation CD, not number 15 on the March 2008 singles chart.
