lets leave religion out of this and get back on topic

[Jonny Hoare]

toca me and toca's miracle are two differnt songs

[Uglybob]

ahh thats where your wrong

Toca had a song called Toca Me
But the singers song was I Need A Miracle, a minor hit in 1997
They pasted her vocals over the Toca Me

same thing as the current Layo & Bushwacka song.

[Sidders]

Wasn't 'I Need A Miracle' some bird called Coco?

[Uglybob]

yes youd be right

[Sidders]

Yay! I knew some worthless pop trivia that bob didn't!

[Uglybob]

[Sidders]

earliest 'bootleg/mix' was in 1901 i reckon - lionel mapleson. the first recognisable booty (as in one song over another) was probably klf's 1987 album - but nods have to be given to hip-hop, reggae and chicago house who all pioneered mixing/beatmatching. after then, negativland, john oswald, the ecc and even jive bunny do bootys.
