steve angello - teasing mr. charlie

this track has been on my mind ever since i had the displeasure of hearing lmfao's "sexy and i know it". i believe that it's actually afrojack's "pacha on acid" which was a bigger source of inspiration for that one but the riff sounds more like steve angello's track.

now all tracks in question aren't original in one bit and people has been doing records like that since the eighties. but for all intents and purposes and considering acts like lmfao seem to sample/borrow from newer records, i'm going to say they clearly did draw ideas from these two (and other tracks).

anyhow "teasing mr. charlie" came at a point where the s.h.m had firmly established themselves in clubland and they seemed to do no wrong. i either heard it out in the club or in a set but it was a simple track that worked extremely well. one infectious acidlike bassline and a catchy rhythm and some filtering. boom.
