01 VoXSTeP DuB SymPHoNY Volume IV (Aug 2010) - DJ UMB

“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight "pop" and everybody goes "Awww!” - Jack Kerouac

This is part of the PopSTeP DuB SymPHoNy series but I've called this one "VoXSTeP" esp. for Prashant Mistry of Engine-Earz.

There's so much GREAT PopSTeP that I decided to continue the series and so volume III has been unfinalized and here's Volume Four!!!

Big Thanx 2 Engine Earz, Sabbo, AlexisK, Majiika & 4 Centers for providing me with UNRELEASED tracks, much appreciated man, mwah 2 u all :-)

As usual Lil' rough round the edges...1cut & First Take LIVE..Pioneer CDJ 1000 MKII & DJM 600 & UNMASTERED :-(

More Pop Quotes:

"what was interesting about what the Who did is that we took things which were happening in the pop genre and represent them to people so that they see them in a new way. I think the best example is Andy Warhol's work, the image of Marilyn Monroe or the Campbell's soup can...." Pete Townshend (The Who)

“"By definition pop is extremely catchy, whether you like it or not," Cobain says. "There are some pop songs I hate but I can't get them out of my head. Our songs also have the standard pop format: Verse, chorus, verse, chorus, solo, bad solo. All in all, I think we sound like The Knack and the Bay City Rollers being molested by Black Flag and Black Sabbath."” - Kurt Cobain

And 4 what it's worth my own take on this too:

"I don't wanna be elitist, specialist or only audible to the select few AND I don't wanna be Susan Boyle, X Factor nor Rihanna either BUT I think I do wanna be PoP!" - DJ UMB- Generation Bass
