Just in time for Tiga’s performance at Lollapalooza, Chicago’s Midnight Conspiracy takes you back with their remix of What You Need to the carefree summer days of ’87 when Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up reigned supreme, The Simpsons were born and Reagan convinced everyone that a little government scandal was ok. So kick back on the porch with an iced tea and groove to Midnight Conspiracy’s What You Need Summer of ’87 Remix.
