Absolutely Wild: A Dive into Jessica Wild’s 2013 Dancefloor Gem
Alright, let’s talk about Absolutely by Jessica Wild. Released in 2013 under the Lomlplex label, this album is a straight-up love letter to anyone who lives for thumping basslines and glittery synths. It’s electro, it’s house, it’s dance-pop—basically, it’s everything you need to lose yourself on the floor (or in your bedroom with headphones on).
Now, I’ll be honest here—I didn’t expect much when I hit play. But oh man, was I wrong. This isn’t just one song remixed eight times; each version of “Absolutely” feels like its own vibe, its own universe. The producers went HAM on this track, flipping it into so many flavors that you almost forget it’s the same core tune. Almost.
Let me break down two remixes that stuck with me:
First up, “Absolutely (DJ Gremix Pride Revenge Mix)”. Okay, so picture this: you’re at some neon-lit rooftop party, sweat dripping down your back, lights flashing all over the place. That’s exactly where this mix belongs. DJ Gremix takes the original and cranks up the sass factor by 500%. There’s something about the way he layers those sharp beats with these sassy vocal chops—it’s like the song is winking at you while demanding you move. You can’t ignore it. Like, try sitting still during this. I dare you.
Then there’s “Absolutely (Mr. Smiley Dirty Guy Electro House Remix)”, which… wow. Just wow. If the Pride Revenge Mix is the life of the party, this one is the afterparty nobody saw coming. Mr. Smiley brings this gritty edge to the table, all dirty basslines and glitchy effects that feel kinda dangerous but in the best way possible. It’s not polished or perfect—it’s raw energy bottled up into four minutes of pure chaos. And honestly? That’s what makes it unforgettable. When this came on, my cat gave me a look like, “What are you even doing right now?” Fair question.
The rest of the album keeps the momentum going strong. Whether it’s John Rizzo’s big room bangers or DJ Nina Flowers’ cha-cha twist, every remix adds a fresh layer to the original. Even the Original Mix holds its ground, proving that sometimes simplicity hits harder than all the bells and whistles.
Here’s the thing about Absolutely: it’s not trying to reinvent the wheel. Instead, it celebrates the wheel, spins it around, throws glitter on it, and dares you to keep up. By the time you reach the last track, you realize this isn’t just an album—it’s a vibe. A wild, unapologetic, hands-in-the-air kinda vibe.
And hey, maybe that’s why it works. In a world full of playlists and singles, Jessica Wild reminds us that sometimes, sticking to one killer idea and running with it can still feel fresh. Who knew a single word—absolutely—could carry so much weight?
Final thought? Listening to this album feels like finding $20 in your jeans from three years ago. Unexpected, kinda thrilling, and leaves you wondering how you ever forgot about it in the first place.
