Fingers Inc - My House Acapella (Jack Had a Groove) [1988]

[AnnaRaeStreet]

Classic, classic acapella!!

[flynnmoloney]

this goes with absolutely everything

[UNITEWAD]

Rave On!!!!

[CrowdControlol]

Would it be legal to use this vocal in a track that is released?

[douggillen]

@CrowdControlol no, it would be the same as using a sample.

[dassfisken]

@CrowdControlol its done a 1000 times, u would be one in an ocean of sampled stuff so yea go for it

[CrowdControlol]

@dassfisken that's kind of what I figured so I just went with it. thanks!

[pedrin2]

heroes of 2001... daft punk XD

[walter1990]

Why songs nowadays don't have acapella-versions? because it's mostly one sentence multiplied times 30. In the beginning of minimal music ( philip glass and stuff), they were revolutionairs. Now all music on the radio's are easy with lyrics created by a four year old.

[jackel6665]

the best tune of all time

[420luckystarz]

so old school. gave me goosebumps.

[djBMac1]

[kjah187]

@simplybumsi cd singles used to be realy good for acapellas, same with vinyl re-issues of classic house tunes. i have loads of olds tune's with acapellas but the more modern tunes barely have

[MadPAM69]

Still know it by heart - very scary after 25 years...

[Snk3Fst]

Jack's House is very lovely!

[MrDezeldzame]

GODDAMN!!!!!! Jack is the man!!

[FireAlarm]

Alll this clip was needing were those "Preach Preach Preach" background comments heard at that Million man march.

[blackvinylrecords]

Ooh......Desire Records......do the math.......

[djikomee]

AMEN!



[extrabits]

you can mix it in with Shaft.

[TRACTOR90]

in the end there is a:

"And this is fresh" or "And this is fest"?

[BlueBurryPimp]

I did'nt know this was gay but this is so epic I don't even care

[batmandnb]

traduçao em portugues

No início, era Jack, e Jack tinha um rítmo.

E desde esse rítmo veio o rítmo de todas os rítmos.

E quando um dia violentamente batendo em sua caixa,

Jack declarou corajosamente: "E que haja o house!"

E o house music nasceu.

Eu sou quem você vê!

Eu sou o criador,

e esta é minha casa,

e em minha casa só há house music.

[danw1374]

Preach my brother

[DJOrochiKazuya]

AMEN

[harrylime22]

[1clubgirl4ever]

God bless House Music ♥...And thank you Jack ^_^

[BalooRJ]

A legendary house track, great for mixing one totally unrelated track into another. This plus Joe Smooth's Promised Land, hoo boy!

[medicinehed]

Epic.

[MpDeejay]

Groove of all grooves!!!!!!

[pinkpantrix]

This is the House Anthem...nothing like it.

[frankiebones01]

Wait, did someone say Afrojack? It actually goes better with Boris Dlugosch Bangkok .

[welshiethepotter]

Used in so many records ...but still so good :)

[TheNEWangus132]

[DrMsIrKK]

the text was spoken by a fingers inc member. So it is created by fingers inc.

[MTaylorMakeup19]

[djcarlinhosk]

House religion.

[thesnobsupreme]

WORD

[GreggyP100]

This is put to good use on "Patriotic Acid" by Ace of Clubs [aka Luke Vibert]

[michaelkulik1]

most classic house sample ever, period.

[franznpdx]

Erotic Crystallization Inertia. This is done by surrounding oneself with objects and memorabilia and dressing in the fashions from the peak of one's youth, which is the moment when one crystallizes in that particular moment of time. The ultimate implementation of ECI would involve the construction of total aesthetic environments completely isolated from the outside world. Such an environment would be completely and totally timeless, not subject to whatever changes occur outside.

[franco1873]

@sebastianfatale .... hehe they are called rushes my friend

classic sample and yet another great start for any set

[burldean1]

"No Man Owns House..."

But I know some sequined purse carrying post-op trannys that have a couple timeshares along the shore of House...

[djJackMF]

Yes! No one man own's house until some chump comes along and tries to take over or alienate the original members... then it becomes MY house again and they can get the F out - lol!!!

[yunova]

@burldean1 you a fool for saying that. lol

[MissMimaa]

<3 THIS IS MY HOUSE <3

[simbono92]

Remebring : And This is My House Looped 4 times then enchained with a crazy beat

WOW =D

[tall32guy]

i've looked all over for the song that has both this and Can You Feel It, but can't find it. Anyone know if it's on here? lol

[djparnate]

(mr fingers) : )

[pl0x321]

This is about gay sex? Why all comments have -6 rate, haters?

[statenhal]

no haters. all the good comments got negative feedback for some reason, while negatives got plus. (i removed those)

somebody must have too much time on his hands or this song brings back bad really bad memories.

[analyticalpro]

Hahahaha!

I agree!

This shit is terrible. I'm pretty sure the dude talking in this song probably carries a sequined purse?

[mulligr]

This tune is a classic, what music are you into then?? Chronic opra

[burldean1]

This "tune" is classic in the same way you can bag up a turd, and preserve it for 20 years. It may be old enough to consider it "classic", but it still smells(sounds) like shit...

I'm really into Weird Al, to answer your question.

[letsgoonradio]

if you have this song on you pc :can you mail it to me .

i will have this song on cd

[maxenk]

Does any1 know what BPM this has if i'd like to use it in a mix?

[statenhal]

there's no bpm its spoken words, but if you cue carefully you may be able to match some phrases on a 120-130 bpm track.

[maxenk]

Isn't there?

yes, it does fit kinnda good at some tracks.. really lovely :D

But, what i really ment.. since it's an acapella, the vocals must have been on some song with a bpm from the beginning? What was the bpm of that track?

[Drinalin]

listen to the FULL SONG "Mr. Fingers - Can You Feel It". It's here on YouTube

:)

[Lacrimocephale]

Play with the pitch and do a bpm match with your ears.

[Kostly]

@statenhal I think you can cut it up to fit almost any BPM rate. But, I think around 128 is good.

[dundule]

@statenhal

i mixed it down with 125 BPM and it worked very well :)

[86Tesla]

@maxenk how do you will mix it when you're not able to count the bpm by yourself? ^^

[wannabeadj]

@maxenk What I would do is use a music program, Fruity Loops or Ableton... I use Ableton personally, you can cut sections and cue them, or you can cut and insert into tracks. There's tons you can do, really

[Telmoserrano]

128 bpm...i've already done the remix

[Telmoserrano]

128 bpm...i've already done the remix D note

[Grooves70]

fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dance4ya]

House Dance for Life

House Music for Life

Jack 4 ever

[burldean1]

The bpm is 135 anal blasts a minute.

House sucks!

[cilidbang]

sorry, can u repeat that

[vlajster]

This stuff is epic

[edwin4589]

what is the bpm for this?

[vegunited06]

keep on jacking!

[lolzk0]

What is the origin of this? Did this speech first come out in this acapella, or was it first featured in a particular song?  I really want to know where this first came from!

[statenhal]

As some other commenter wrote..it appeared on Rhythm Controll - My House, 1987. Sells for €350 on discogs.

[eriegz]

Holy shit, 350 euros?? Well, something I have to buy before I die, I guess.

For now, a 128kbps mp3 will have to do.

[spacecowboy22]

@statenhal this was out in the 70's chuck roberts did it. when House was born this was played before each illegal event, and everyone would stand in a circle holding hands. Absolute FACT.

[brainstormingredligh]

omg that's so funny

[astroboy6362]

We all have Jack with us.

[sarahsum1]

Oh wow! i remember this playing in the Gas club up london yrs ago, it freaked me out a bit coz... i was in the party way n all that :-) it was followed by break of dawn!

[CelticProgeny]

I spent a long time trying to find jack, never found him, bumped into 'e' and followed him instead. Years later I was mooching around this rave and found this mirror and there he was, Jack.

[samdaftpunk]

awesome !!! i love this so much could someone please give me the mp3 of this plz im beggin u ill give u anythin like dj falcon stuff and alan braxe live at the viper room :P

[THE1DJJONES]

to dechips true true true. Spinin since 84.

[djstu191078]

this means so much to me and if you have been into clubbing since 89 onwards then you will know why

[koolin1963]

"And while one day viciously throwing down on the spot..." DAMN! I LOVE this shyt!

[dechips]

any dj worth his/her salt knows if they wanna please the crowd to drop this acapella in their set...true or not true?

[THE1DJJONES]

to dechips true true true. Spinin since 84

[yourtuber77]

Can somebody explain why it was "Jack" at the beginning? Did they wanted to refer to a specific person named Jack with these Lycris??

[statenhal]

"To Jack" of "Jacking" refers to the way people were dancing back then..hence Jack Your Body..

Watch the documentary Pump Up The Volume on google video if you realy want to know the details.

[Output9]

at 1.08 the track tells you who Jack is.

[tommydangerdoyle]

one of the best posts of youtube

[vinoah]

match this acapella with lil louis french kiss

for amazing results on the dance floor

[cornpit77]

COOL! This is supposed to be a very rare track on 12". Thanks 4 uploading it! This was used many times on club nights in the village I used to live (Club 't Gebouw in Lekkerkerk).

[Obinjess]

[prettytira]

[magicjuan75]

This accapella originally appeared on a record by Rhythm Controll [sic] entitled "My House" on Catch A Beat records. Mighty hard to find, but a good one to have if you are into classic House music.

[foxybeyonce1978]

music is the answer

[Maantjuh78]
