yep, we're both talking about sch808. newcleus' jam on it came out in 1984
and is quite distinctive: if you've heard man parrish's hip hop be bop (don't stop),
imagine that slower and with a full rap throughout (not that this is close, but it
gives you at least some sort of idea). i'll try to get Newcleus' Jam On It on a
future edition of In The Mix. Andrew Duke :)

> this is the schematic 808, right? if that's what you're talking about there is a vocal sample on both the a- and the b-side. i heard it was the original version by phoenecia on one side and the remix by soul oddity on the other. mine only says schematic 808 so that doesn't help very much. haven't heard that other 1984 track so i don't know either.
