So here's actually a good video, very reminiscent in some ways of one of the best from the 80s.
My favorite part about the song is those orchestra hits. Real fuckin' sharp. These guys know what's good.

DJ Obama Footage LEAKED!
We first broke the rumors that Barack Obama has been DJing rare musical events. And now we bring to you LEAKED FOOTAGE of a recent performance in Madison, WI. The dark, gritty cameraphone footage shows Obama dancing fiercely, he does a little scratching (yes!), and you get a few good clips of the kind of music he's interested in.
Tell us what you think!
Update:
We've got a tentative tracklist of a few of the songs heard in these clips, sent in by reader poorlostbread:
The first one is quintessential freestyle, and it is definitely TKA - You Are the One. The second one is a little bit of italo disco, it might be Dharma - Plastic Doll but I'm not sure. The third song sure sounds like Chip Davis, the mastermind behind the hugely popular Mannheim Steamroller. It's probably one of his solo pieces. I'm not sure about the last song--maybe something from the demoscene? Jesus, I never knew Obama could move like that!Thanks so much for that. On second viewing I noticed the vocal clip near the end, and it's almost certainly from this spectacular YouTube video.
Here's that TKA track.
TKA - You Are the One
