Phantasmogoria

I love catching a song and going like "where is that beat from?". It's like random trivia. I'm sure there are tons of matches I don't get because you really have to have an extensive library of music in your memory. I always think rhythms are recycled in the music industry and I often respond like Aha! (no not 'take on me') I caught you! but I guess it also brings to mind glee club "mash ups" (yes I watched Glee) and then it's not so bad (What!?, am I getting soft?). Plus it's an honor really to have someone use your riff or beat (Who am I?). I was checking out Phantogram and came across this number which I like.


Then recalled this original by Q-Tip.


Just for the sake of my obsessiveness I wish I had the equipment to overlay the tracks.
