The Dark Punk Hippies have breathed new life into a timeless dance anthem with their remix of Karen Ramirez’s 1998 hit Looking for Love. This track, originally a house-infused remake of the 1993 ballad I Didn’t Know I Was Looking for Love by British duo Everything But The Girl, finds itself reimagined once again for modern ears—and dancefloors.
Karen Ramirez’s version transformed the soulful ballad into an infectious house track that captured the spirit of the late ’90s club scene. It propelled her into the spotlight as a one-hit wonder, securing a top 10 spot on UK charts and earning its place as a nostalgic favorite for electronic music fans. The original song’s heartfelt lyrics paired with upbeat, groovy instrumentation gave it a unique, timeless appeal.
Now, Dark Punk Hippies take this classic on an exhilarating new journey. Their remix keeps the track’s emotional core intact while layering it with hypnotic rhythms, deep basslines, and tech-infused energy. It’s a darker, more atmospheric interpretation that strikes a perfect balance between nostalgia and innovation. With pulsating beats and subtle yet striking vocal chops, the remix invites listeners to rediscover Looking for Love in an entirely new light.
This reinterpretation pays homage to the track’s legacy while making it relevant for today’s audiences. Perfect for both intimate clubs and expansive festival stages, Dark Punk Hippies’ remix proves that great music transcends time.
