Deee-lite cut up into little pieces.....

Time for a posting to uncover as much of Deee-lite's Groove's in the Heart as possible. Bassline was always readily available but it's taken a few years for the rest of it to sneak out in the public domain - especially the intro. Very satisfying hearing that one.....



Bel-Sha-Zaar with Tommy Genapopoluis & The Grecian Knights

Now this is a real beauty - 20 years of hunting and curiosity over. Hubba Hubba.

Vernon Burch - Get Up

Its the drums's and whistle, the beat is obvious from the off but the juicy bit is at 2.22.

Herbie Hancock - Bring Down the Birds

It's that bassline - taken from the soundtrack to the film Blow Up.

Ralph McDonald - Jam on the Groove

On old b-boy classic, for the grooviest percussion break known to man and beast @ 3.45

Sweet Pussy Pauline - Hateful Head Helen @ 3.05

This is the "brrrrrr" bit that you'd be forgiven for thinking it was Bootsy Collins. Some filthy but funny comedy, sampled by 2 Live Crew if that lets you know where it's at....

Green Acres TV theme

Just a little snippet but we may as well be anal about this. The "I I,I,I" bit, scrub to 0.35.

Ray Barretto - Right On

Nice! Latin percussion break, top stuff from start to finish.

The Headhunters - God Made Me Funky

Another b-boy favourite for the breaks, used by Deee-Lite for the scratched drum roll.

There's one more I wanted to post up but can't find a link, the drum break under Q Tip's rap is from Billy Preston's cover of Stevie Wonder's Uptight. And slooowed right down.






I guess you'll need Groove is in the Heart to reference.....Enjoy!
