DJ Timmy Vegas’s song Another Dimension received an unexpected boost in early August when the large interactive DJ touch screen playing his song “In Another Dimension” went viral. Currently viewed by over 360,000 views on Youtube.

So we thought we should post info about Timmy Vegas and the track in question since we have had many requests asking about the song.

Samples
The song contains two samples: the “robot voice” from the 1997 Beastie Boys song “Intergalactic” from their album Hello Nasty. The other sample is the organ refrain from the 1991 song “Gypsy Woman (She’s Homeless)” by Crystal Waters from her debut album Surprise. The sample from “Intergalactic” is not used in its original form but routed through a vocoder and the driving chords for the vocoder are the same as “Gypsy Woman”‘s harmonies.
