Did you vote yet? How did it go?If you didn't make your way to the polls yet, click the cover image, grab this theme music and get in there ASAP. Better yet, just go now. These tracks will be here when you get back.
Damu was up late last night working on 2 mixes of this song, so both are included ("For Headphones Mix" & "Election Mix), as well as an essay by Christine Doelling. If you like what you hear and/or have some thoughts on this election or on Xtine's essay, drop a comment below or at Damu's myspace page. Also, it wouldn't hurt any if you shared this music with whoever you think would appreciate it. If you were at the Fat Beats in store last weekend and had the chance to see Damu play this track live, then you already know what kind of effort went into making this song... he used over 4o samples on this beat!
Here's a preview/single track download, but be sure to grab the full Zip file (follow the link at the bottom of this post)
I did the initial cover design but after our guy Joe Buck of Artillery DS saw what I did, he stepped in and made it right. haha... THANKS, Joe!
Finally, we gotta say thanks to the guys at Wax Poetics Magazine (YO! Richard Smith! Give that child a proper name!) for their support on this release and helping promote this message.

Good job Mr. Fudgemunk.

Damu! this beat is killing it much respect

peace damu, im lovin the tracks my dude, i did vote for the first time, and im so happy that barack is finally president, now that show us that we can do anything we put our minds to whatever we are focusing on, me and ma dukes voted together, and it wasn't long, i live in florida so it was a paper ballot, which i prefer, it literally took me 45 minutes, thats including the line and casting the vote, i just feel so proud, just so patriotic, you have a good one, peace.
word thanks J, nuff respect... that track is dope as fuck.
if its not too much trouble you think you can send me the whole zip file in an email? if not its cool.. thanks
