MLK shaking his money maker

the great part about techno/dance music and dj's is that they can mix in damn near anything they want. i've heard mixes that include soundbites from southpark, office space, and everything in between. today as i was driving to wonkaville, i had xm dialed into channel 80. Tom Stephan, a pretty great dj himself, has a guest mix every week on his show. This week, DJ Rooster and Sammy somebody-or-other had one of the most spectacular mixes i have ever heard. for 4 or 5 minutes, they mixed in parts of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "i have a dream" speech. appropriate for the weekend but wholly unexpected. now you might think that this would be horrible. it wasn't. it had to be one of the most brilliantly engineered pieces ever. Of course, with 5 shots of espresso and enough caffiene to give a rhinocerous the jitters, the world looked pretty damn cheery today. seriously though, if anybody can find an electronic copy of it, i will pay good money or even buy you this poster for your very own.

Why do I get the feeling that you have a copy of that poster yourself?
