"Ah Yeah!" is a 2012 song by Australian producer and DJ Will Sparks. It was released on Hussle label in 2012 and was one of the tracks used in October 2013 on the Urban Dance 6 compilation album published by Sony.

In 2015 Katie Cunningham from In the Mix gave credit to "Ah Yeah!" as giving rise the new music genre Melbourne Bounce. The track gained exposure by Calvin Harris and A-Trak and Sparks saying he "went from 'hardly getting gigs in Melbourne' to getting booked every weekend for shows around the world".[1]

In 2014, it was rereleased as "Ah Yeah So What" on Hussle / Ministry of Sound and featuring Wiley & Elen Levon.
