"Dooms Night" is a single by German DJ/producer Azzido Da Bass, first released in 1999 in Germany. The song did well there, but not so well upon its release in the UK, missing the Top 40 twice in 2000 until a remix of the song by Timo Maas was released; it was this version which gave the song huge mainstream chart success, reaching number eight on the UK Singles Chart.

The Timo Maas remix contains a sample from "How Do You Plead?" by French duo Soofle.[1]

Later, a re-work of the Timo Maas version by English duo Stanton Warriors was also released as a single in 2000, entitled "Dooms Night (Revisited)". Their remix featured updated UK garage-esque beats and vocals by UK ragga MC Slarta John.[2]

Due to the song's popularity, it also made major appearances around the world, including at the MTV Music Awards in 2000, in several American and European commercials, and in the movie soundtrack to Be.Angeled.[3]

In 2008, various releases of "Dooms Night" featured new remixes by artists such as Laidback Luke, Crookers, Switch, Meck and Lexy & K-Paul.

Reception

In the liner notes of the Kiss mix album Kiss House Nation 2001, Mixmag music editor Matthew Kershaw named the Maas remix among 2000's "uncategorisable" club tracks. He called it "the most surprising, eccentric, adaptable clubland tune of the year" and highlighting its "wub wub wub" hook.[4]
