The Sunday Sampler embarks on another monthly escapade, this time focusing on the multi-talented stand-up comedian and actor Eddie Murphy. It's probably quite accurate to say not a lot of people really appreciated his singing career though, let alone really knew he even had one. Here he is with his only major hit, from 1985, Party All The Time.
Roll onto 2006, and one half of Deep Dish, Sharam Tayebi (or just Sharam) compressed the title down to just PATT, and further compressed Murphy's vocal talents into a monster house tune. Enjoy!

The Sunday Sampler: Edwin Birdsong / Daft Punk
OK so the Sunday Sampler has slipped back from its orignal planned fortnightly slot to a monthly venture. But in keeping with the BOH spirit the quality isn't going anywhere!
This sample is much more obvious that the previous one. Edwin Birdsong released this funky gem in the Seventies, and if you can't hear the sample from the very start then where have you been for the last few years?
And for the other 99% of you, here's Daft Punk taking the intro of Cola Bottle Baby, speeding it up and raising the key by a semitone. Add a vocoded voice loop and possibly the best solo ever and you get Harder Better Faster Stronger.
More next month...

The Sunday Sampler: The Jets / Alan Braxe And Fred Falke
It's time for a new feature here on BoH. Every other Sunday there's going to be a pair of videos with a common theme. The first one will be a track of yesteryear, quite often something obscure or long forgotten, and the second will be a house tune that samples it. Hence the Sunday Sampler. Simple. So here's today's...
The Jets released 'Crush On You' in 1985, reaching #5 on the UK singles chart. Fast forward to 2000, and French duo Alan Braxe and Fred Falke plucked out the refrain (found around the 2:27 mark) and created the house anthem 'Intro'.
