First of all, hello long time no see

Secondly, what a great track!

Thirdly, dont you think the guy speaking sounds like Neil Tennant from Pet Shop Boys?

and Fourthly, this is only known as X-Booty Volume 1, sounds like it could be just a bootleg vinyl and is a techno bootleg of a Pet Shop Boys Track.

Kind Regards,

hullo

indeed long time no see, hows your shit?

cheers for the info, i will look into the pet shop boys thing, in places it sounds like him and in others it doesn't.. the lyrics are severely fucked up though, alot of the time you can't really tell what its saying, but when you can its like... eh..??

rockin track, 10 out of 10 to whoever made it!

It sounds VERY much like Neil Tennant to me, I am absolutely addicted to this tune now though, thanks for introducing it to me! What a stormer

Btw, send my love & say hi to Miss Brite wont you?

Kind Regards,

The vocals are from a Laurie Anderson song from 1981. Click below for the lyrics.

There is a release called O Superman by Institute of Love on V2 records which was out in 1998. One of the four mixes could be the same as your white label.

Hope this helps

Don't know what remix that is but the original is Richard brown - Superman [music man]

listen here

This is what I found:


remixed by henry cullen (a,k,a dave the drummer). on the xbooty label, two exquisite plates of hard dancefloor techno, due to the overtly nicked samples. however the man responsible is a dj/producer who runs one of the uks most successful techno labels. the a-side takes the vocal from laurie anderson�s "o superman" and lays it over industrial, 4x4-esque drums while the flip lifts the vocals of a well known rapper and whacks them over a pumping mutha of tune.

I have the A1 'Nouvelle Vague' mix and that one sounds more like an "original" mix of the track, so I guess this could very well be the A2 "Straight Bonus Beats" mix (with the beats at the end of the sample and all )
