I Want Your Soul

Now in the last post we saw one extreme of this new generation of house/techno..but we also have the " Ol' Heads " to consider. Dudes like Armand Van Helden can get away with doing some retro hip-hop shit because he IS hip-hop. Sure, he's made his money in the house scene but real heads know, he was a dope hip-hop producer first. I guess that's why a lot of his tracks have that edge to them. This dude has been one of the most consistent and prolific producers in the last 20 years. DON"T SLEEP! This first video came out last year I believe and is pretty dope. I gotta admit though, I rarely played the original...the Jesse Rose remix just bangs harder and worked better on the dance floor.



However, I still play this next track out every-so-often and it STILL gets people moving even if they've never heard it (I know that's hard to believe...). Bonified classic in every sense of the word. Any respectable DJ playing disco should know the sample instantly. The raw edit of this track is crazy too.



Here's a bonus.. If you're a "DJ" and don't own the song that was sampled for this on vinyl you should just quit! hahaha..
