Shonky - Chocotox

Very un-Shonkylike stuff here. I'm still playing 'Donkey Kong' a lot. Nice percussion on these, some divaish vocals. I think I'll pick up 'Mama Queen'.

Samples @ beatport

I'm a big fan of Dr. Slump myself... perhaps since I'm a big Akira Toriyama fan.

Yeah, it's an awesome release from Shonky once again. 'Mama Queen' is the ez.

This is actually VERY Shonky-like :p Proper club music for a proper club, I love this release to death :D

Props to anyone that can figure out the sample in Chocotox ;)

OR the sample in Mama Queen, can't put my finger on what that vocal is from.

I remember reading that it samples EBTG :D

When I think of Shonky though I think of repetitve, sci-fi sounding techno like 'Numbers' or songs like that. I just wasn't expecting awesome diva vocals in a track from him.

Yeah those were great tracks. Older style > current imo, although these are still enjoyable.
