tayo meets ctrl-z - every time

another track i heard first at the time of it's release when i was looking on juno for the newest tracks and soundbite just floored me. at this time i was still banging out tayo & acid rocker's remix of the classic "disco babes from outer space" by babe instinct so i knew of tayo's love of reggae and his employing of samples and the likes. both tracks from the release use these kind of samples but only one fell into my taste due to it's bassline.

the b-side which is called "lovers rock" uses a sample and a groove that is a bit to laidback and it was coupled together with a bassline that was too typical for nuskool breaks. here the sample is a one drop in which they load up with funky drums and this makes for a more interesting tune. also the focus isn't completely on the sample but on the groove and bassline.

the playful drops in and out together with the lazy horn stabs and the hardpacking drums does the business. there is also these killer bongos that even though are part of the groove in general really brings a smile to my face when they worked as fills. this has to do that even though i know all the most famous breaks in the world has been used countless times, i still light up and love it when they are used. it doesn't matter that the amen break is used in such and such song, if it's a track that i like i go nuts for that part when it hits or something.
