"Stumbled on this on youtube, MCA from Beasties rhyming about drum machines..vocals are so heartfelt by me in regard to drum machines..left me smitten. Got to here these lyrics, mention of an oberheim dmx and a lexicon space station also.

"Burzooties on the mix most of the time, he works on the machines but he doesnt really rhyme"...genius vox.., 5:57 of rhymes like these with a fat drum break and electrofied efx."

Update via casio hardcore in the comments: "Classic tune! Just FYI: Jay Burnett originally released this song back in 1982 under the artist name of "Drum Machine". The 12" has a lyrical version (presumably with Jay rhyming) and the instrumental version. The version he does with MCA a few years later is the same song, same concept, different lyrics and different sounds. If you dig this version then I suggest you hunt down the original version ;)"

  1. Yo Matrix, there's also mention of a Simmons in this.

    DMX, replace the chip,in order to bust with the Simmons kick. Bring ya own chip w/ ya personal sound that makes the hardrock b-boys wanna get down.
