Sample of Sing Sing - Gaz

The 1978 disco-funk track "Sing Sing" by Gaz (a project of keyboardist Thor Baldursson) is one of the most influential breakbeat sources in music history. Its distinctive mid-song drum break—characterized by a "concrete" kick and snare layered with human-beat-boxed hi-hats—made it a foundational element for hip-hop and regional electronic scenes.
