I have a request from the ASMB, if anyone can help me brainstorm 

i watch adult swim all the time, mainly for family guy, but i watch most of the shows on sunday night (especially tim & eric) too. there's a beat that plays through one of the bumps that's the best beat i've ever heard IN MY ENTIRE .. LIFE. i think the background's brown, but it could be black. ........ it's a hip-hop beat. it's relatively new (within the last 3-6 months i'd say). i've only heard it a couple of times. it got to the point where i was watching adult swim just to hear that beat. then it dissappeared. i haven't heard it forever. ........... for some reason it reminds me of the theme song to the dave chappelle show. it's starts off kind-of quiet, kind-of slow...then the bass beat hits and it f*cking kicks a**!!!

-and-

it's a purely hip-hop "beat." there's not a lot of guitar or anything like that. it's definitely not rock or alternative. there's nothing to the background (no pictures or art) and i'm 98% sure it's brown...2% chance it's black. i

Only things I can think of are...

.. but there's art in the background, so I don't know.  I really don't know of any bumps that don't have art, unless this is supposed to be a card, and the person hasn't watched enough to know that all the cards have a black background.

The second one in particular matches the description of being quiet at the beginning, then the beat kicking in.  It also changes color half-way through, which would explain why they can't remember if it's black or brown.

I tried the Baggage Room bump and the Kiss Babies both for the music description, and neither was what he was looking for  and the only brown with text I could think of was this style http://www.bumpworthy.com/bumps/1131 but couldn't match one up with the music description. I also suggested it may have been one of the third party ads that they produce in 'bump style' but even those usually have cards alternating with graphics (like this not really third party one  ) Plus I can't remember those nearly as well, don't know if one was brown *argh*

Oh well, I tried.


And I'm a lot more motivated to implement the tagging system now after looking for 20 minutes for the Baggage Room one, which I had no clue of the name, but I could see it in my head.

My guess: somewhat inexperienced viewer, stuck around for Tim and Eric and watched the whole block, presumably Sundays, could be Something Awesome, which has been taken out of rotation to place a Gametap ad. It has a brown segment near the end, very hip-hop beat, bass drum kicks in hard, ran around that time...  and he could've mixed in We Want to Come In, which has a Chapelle-ish guitar, but that could be a stretch. Dunno, really, can't work too well with the description... Do you have an idea of other bumps that ran near that time bracket that have been pulled recently? I could consult my library tomorrow  .

Something Awesome - http://www.bumpworthy.com/bumps/125
We Want to Come In - http://www.bumpworthy.com/bumps/126
AS Our Friend - http://www.bumpworthy.com/bumps/242 (haven't seen it in a while, but I could just be distracted... slow then kick drum thing, still)
and since it's around that time bracket, Against it With You - http://www.bumpworthy.com/bumps/119

The other thing I can suggest is hitting the search for card-ish and surf for a while. I think he has some big mix-up in, but the tune's bound to have been used in the card-ish bumps at least once.

P.S. Umm, the search is a little off, had to go through Manage to find those ones.

Thanks for the input, guys, but it looks like another wild goose chase

Then I'm like 99% sure it's a promo. Maybe the Zack and Miri one, I think that one had white text on a brown background. Oh well, we tried.
