I Need a P.I.

This is driving me nuts. I'm pretty damn sure the Kano/Discopolis-esque synth line in this song has been sampled by someone of the Braxe/Lifelike/Menace variety. I've checked all the songs I have by these dudes and while there's tons of songs that come close to it, I just can't find the one. That's where you come in dear reader, help me out!

Island and Holiday- Living

Island and Holiday was a pseudonym used once by Davide Romani, also known as "the white guy from Change" and this is the awesome floaty italo-funk jam b-side to an pretty awful medley of In the Summertime and Love of the Common People he released in 1984.

Brian, you're totally right. Its been in front of my face this whole time... I was only thinking of the part of the song that was sampled in Discopolis and not the part that sounds EXACTLY like this part. Then I fabricated this whole memory of this song being sampled by someone else in that vein. Man I'm crazy.

Thanks to all my PI's for your input!
