Chuckie remix

In early 2009, Chicago DJ/producer 'DJ Inphinity' created a bootleg using the Silvio Ecomo remix of DJ Chuckie's 2008 hit "Let the Bass Kick" and the a cappella of LMFAO, creating "Let the Bass Kick in Miami Bitch" (or "Let the Bass Kick in Miami Girl" as a radio edit). The bootleg was spread across the Internet and was a massive success at the Miami Winter Music Conference 2009. "Let the Bass Kick in Miami Bitch/Girl" was released in Europe in late 2009, peaking within the top ten of the charts in the United Kingdom,[10] and within the top 20 of the charts in Belgium (Flanders) and the Netherlands. In the former country, "Let the Bass Kick in Miami Bitch/Girl" peaked at number nine on the UK Singles Chart and topped the UK Dance Chart, making the United Kingdom the only territory in which "Gettin' Over You" was not LMFAO's first top ten song.
