Planet of the Bass: when song will be released on streaming, who are the singers - TikTok hit explained

Planet of the Bass might just be the song of the summer we've all been waiting for.

The viral parody track, which lovingly skewers Euro Dance music of 1990s, has exploded since a clip was shared on TikTok. It has since been posted across other platforms including the social media site formerly known as Twitter.

Fans are now eagerly anticipating hearing the whole track when it is released later this month. Despite only a small clip being posted on TikTok it has already proved to be a true earworm - with plenty of quotable lyrics such as 'life, it never die' or 'woman are my favourite guy'.

The track is inspired by 1990s Eurodance tracks like Aqua - best known for 1997's Barbie Girl song - and other acts from that era. Mixing a female singer with a male rapper/ hypeman.

But who is behind the track and when is it due for release? Here's all you need to know:

Who sings Planet of the Bass?

The track is by DJ Crazy Times and Ms. Biljana Electronica. DJ Crazy Times is the alter ego of comedian Kyle Gordon.

The New York based comedian shared the clip of Planet of the Bass on his TikTok. He has been doing the DJ Crazy Times for a few years, but the 90s Eurodance parody has thrust the character into the spotlight.
