A Humble Request
I wish no ill will on Mambo Sauce, or its always-on-the-FM single “Welcome To D.C.” It’s a classic “rep your shit” track: enthusiastically provincial, but not rigidly insiderish. KYS and PGC are wise to spin it all the time, if only because it keeps their playlists from sounding too corporate. But I gotta be honest: That high-pitched keyboard riff gets on my nerves. I know it’s essential to the tone of the song; that is, it efficiently communicates the idea of “take warning, we’re coming.” But if somebody could work up a synth-free remix, I’d be grateful. Some YouTube love:

Mambo Sauce is like the hannah montana of go go.

That raises a good question: Does go-go need a metaphorical Hannah Montana once in awhile?
