Interesting, very cool to hear the original sample. Nice find!

I was honestly shocked when I heard it. I didn't know much about Basement Jaxx, but for my last 2 years of middle school and maybe my freshman year of highschool, that song, and The Bad Touch were on everyone's myspace pages lmao. I can't lie, even though those 2 songs seem to be have been forgotten, they're guilty pleasures of mine from time 2 time.

M.E. was in the recommended section when I was listening to WYH@ on YT, I was exploring music at that time so I clicked it and when I heard the original sample, just slowed down, I was like holy shit. Binged Numan for like 2 weeks after that.

But yeah, groups like Daft Punk have said if it weren't for Gary Numan, they wouldn't exist.

I guess I'll have to listen to more Gary Numan then!
