Based on the Commodore 64 SID tune "Lazy Jones" (Subtune 21) by David Whitaker. A SIDStation supplies the main synth line.

the melody of this track is from the old c64-game "lazy jones" :o)

This track represents everything great about dance culture. It also represents everything dreadful about it.
It polarises opinion in everyone who hears it. The resolutely underground Dave Clarke loved it, dropping it when he and Richie Hawtin played back to back. Hawtin, unamused, unceremoniously took it off the deck without mixing it...
I've heard Judge Jules play it time and time again, including cutting the sound at Homelands and letting the crowd sing it, then after the infamous Top of the Pops appearance, he slagged it off in the press and said he didn't like its "yobbish, singalong factor".
Did get really irritating after about three months tho.

The original is fantastic - the speaker-busting reverb is quite incredible, and the bleepy bloopy noises that they nicked from some old computer game are THE best bleepy bloopy noises EVER (IMHO). It's one of those records that puts a smile on your face (well, that is if it doesn't make you cringe or go red with rage).
