Het is tijd voor deel 1 van het eclectische Smoeba's Essential Electro Elftal (driewerf hoera voor alliteraties!) waarin alleen de beste 11 dansvloervullers van dit moment een plek in onze Mannschaft krijgen. De nummers die de basis elf vormen, variëren van figdet/dirty house tot indie dance waarbij je spontaan je hele longinhoud wilt gebruiken om hardop woorden als BOOYAKA! en MASSIVE! te schreeuwen in de hoop op een tintelende sensatie langs je huig.
