Oakenfold Radio sets track question...
View this Thread in Original format

I'm in Denver, Colorado and I was listening to chanel 93.3 On Thursday December 30, 2004, late at night. They had the Oakenfold show, from Miami or something like that. I just know it was Oakenfold.

He played this one house song, maybe funky house. It had male vocals in it and a rather prominent snare.

I looked here and couldnt really find it, but maybe it was an un identified track. Maybe its the wrong list:

Anyone have any ideas where to look?

I can't remember at all. I just know they were male and sounded sorta like the one's in "Revolution" by Stephane Malca, but more song-like.

The song was pretty much driven by the bassline and snare. The vocals came on later. I was kind of out of it, so I can't describe it more accurately. Thats why I'm looking for a possible tracklisting, not neccesarly an exact track.

The snare was syncopated every 64 bars or so, in the following way:

B---S---B-S-S---

Where B is the bass drum and S is the snare. It was syncopated in other, more complex ways too, but I can't remember exactly.

Heh this is such a long stretch...:p

The first song that comes to my mind that Oakey would be playing is Peter Martin's 'Perfect Wave'. That song thrives on symbols and snare. Not to mention a male vocal.

Thats a cool song, but not the one I'm looking for. The one I want has a more prominent snare, and more prominent vocals.

I'll just keep looking through the Oakey tracklists, for a while, I'm sure I'll find it one of these days...

In case anybody cares, the track I was looking for is:

Slam - Lifetimes
