Bassheads were two lads from my neck of the woods, The Wirral, coming from Birkenhead and Neston (a posh bit), respectively. This, like so many others at the time, was a massive rave monster on Decontruction. Cleverly contstructed from a variety of different samples, one of the most noticeable being the ‘Once In A Lifetime’ underlay), this is a great piece of pop music that crossed all over the place and delivered a great piece of acid into bedrooms and living rooms everywhere. The hip house element can bring the cheese, so nowadays I reckon an instrumental version would work better (on the discerning dance floor of course.) There are some interesting comments on the Discogs release page that shed some more light on the sampling, and how the track came to be released, which are worth reading. Due a revival I think, but as an edit.
