Those prophets of the broken beat have once again shown their infinite humility and generosity by offering up their latest bootleg remixes to their loyal followers for free. Down at
The Boom Town Blog videos are often posted with their latest remix and bootleg projects and, more often than not, the tracks are eventually put up for download. The duo had this to say:
“It’s just a little gift to show our appreciation to all who have supported us this year by buying our records or coming to our shows and making this one of the most exciting years for us yet…see you all in the 2010 for even more. Mark & Dom”
Their reworking of Young MC's
Know How is a funky booty shaker with that ultra-recogniseable guitar riff from Isaac Hayes's Theme From Shaft and Young MCs lyrical attitude. Booming kicks and the amen break bring it up to date with some clever editing and very little modern synth work.
Good Vibrations was seemingly knocked up in an Australian hotel room while on their similarly named tour. The build up and breakdowns are big room hands in the air affairs with the Beach Boys classic giving everyone something to sing along to. The cheeky use of a sample from Marky Mark's (aka Mark "Max Payne" Wahlberg") chart hit of the same title is used as a punctuation mark between these euphoric moments and the big buzz-saw bassline that kicks in to knock you back into dancing mode.
Go download here and Merry Christmas!
