Hi NYC'r, it's a loop of "Saturday Night Fever" by Lordz of Brooklyn, from around 1993 or so.

aharon:

Thanks very much for the Besnard Lakes tix. EFD and FMU. Report on show (not to be all gift-horsey): so-so+. Each song seemed like it was building to greatness, but was in fact just building to another, similar song. They kinda substitute fracture for dynamics. But with that caveat, pretty good.
  9:11am
efd:

Hey Aharon, thanks for the follow-up report! Glad you had the chance to check them out even if it turned out to be not exactly your cup of tea.
