Songs with a fast dancey/electroish 4/4 beat with someone talking over it (but not really rapping)

my first thought:

The DJ Koze Pink Moon Remix of Sascha Funke's "Mango" - this is definitely one of my top tracks of the past decade. "Where We At" is a great song too, but this Pink Moon Remix more than any other song really sums up the tone of recent years:

Dream on dreamer
Smile in slow motion when you're out of control, cuz the revolution wont be televised, wont be live, wont happen at all...

Dream on dreamer
Cuz you did the best as you could, you're dyin slow but way much quicker than you should...

Maybe I'm just getting old. Scratch that - I'm definitely getting old. Couldn't really find the song on YT - it is incorporated into this blend though:

Actual song can be heard here.

The "dream on dreamer" voiceover in the DJ Koze remix of "Mango" is from another track on <em>Mango</em>, "The Fortune Cookie Symphony" - though on the album it's a short ambient closer rather than 4/4.

Ah, thanks. I suspected it was actually from another song but I couldn't sort out which one. Still, the darkness of the Koze remix really sucks me in.

It so is electro-ish (in the Man Parrish/Afrika Bambaataa sense of the word)!

Hooooooooly shit at how solid gold that John Tejada track is. Can I please just hook up my brain to yours and transfer your knowledge of all of this stuff?

Also I'm v proud of myself for correctly guessing that it was from 2004.

So THAT's what girls do when they go to the bathroom together!

They just bring a drum machine with them and start gabbing over it.

I find this type of music can be either the best thing in the world: e.g. 'monologue house' type stuff; or its the worst: i.e. Miss Kittin/Tiga, etc (non-disco music made by cokeheads, for cokeheads = do not want).

Someone got to Sleeper in Metropolis already, So I'll post this:

" 'Die Dominas' were two old friends of mine. They are my long time friend Rosi, who also performed on some Ash Ra Tempel records and Claudia Skoda for whose fashion shows I have been composing and performing most of the music since 1976. They knew KW from Düsseldorf because they often went there together for fashion fairs. Ralf H. and Karl B. wrote down two special chords for them on a piece of paper: the 'sub Domina' and the 'Domina seven' (Domina = dominant) chords. Later in Berlin they were asking me to show them how these chords sounded. So, one evening when we were doing a nice long session together in my studio, I played them these chords. I explained a little about the instruments in the studio, and they started experimenting with them, without knowing that I was already recording the session! It was really a hilarious session, and the voices sounded like we were having a party. The next day, I started re-mixing the material, and finally got three titles out of it! Claudia and Rosi were so impressed with the result they played it to Ralf and Karl. They were so taken by the recording they offered to make the cover for the album. It turned out to be a very nice cover that looked like a silhouette in black and yellow. "

I guess this counts technically, though it's probably not what you were looking for. :)

This came out in 1983, so it's probably the first tune to do this in an electro context. (It's Sugar Hill Records' house drummer Keith LeBlanc sampling Malcolm X on top of a DMX drum machine.)

Bump bcz I want more of these
