Yup. Dj Doboy's Vocal Edition #17 is my favorite and it sounds awesome with both of my headphones.

incubus - look alive - dance in a triangle

it's literally just a bunch of drums and some string with a tambourine. i wasn't even aware of the song as i was doing something else but half way through i noticed that i was moving my feet like i was doing a dance to the beat. amazing, it's been a while since that last happened to me. and i can't believe it's a friggin' drum beat.
