You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.199.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 12:56, 12 May 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

"'''Song to the Siren'''" is the first [[The Chemical Brothers|Chemical Brothers]] single released under the name '''The Dust Brothers'''. It was originally released under the "green label" for Diamond Records and was later released under the [[Junior Boys Own]] label. The song uses a reversed vocal sample from the [[Dead Can Dance]]'s song "Song to Sophia", from 1988, as well as several other samples, including the song "King of the Beats" by [[Mantronix]].<ref>https://www.whosampled.com/The-Chemical-Brothers/Song-to-the-Siren/samples/</ref>

The Chemical Brothers, Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons, started to DJ in 1992 playing hip hop, techno, and house. Rowlands and Simons called themselves "The Dust Brothers", after the US production duo famous for their work with [[The Beastie Boys]]. After a while, they began to run out of suitable instrumental hip hop tracks to use, so they started to make their own. Using a [[Hitachi]] hi-fi system, a computer, a sampler, and a keyboard, they recorded "Song to the Siren", which sampled the "This Mortal Coil"'s version. "Song to the Siren" was released on their own record label, called "Diamond Records" (after Ed's nickname). In October 1992, they pressed 500 white label copies and took them to various dance record shops around London, but none would play it, saying that it was too slow (the track played at 111 BPM). They sent a copy to London DJ Andrew Weatherall, who made it a permanent fixture in his DJ sets.

In May 1993, Junior Boy's Own released "Song to the Siren". The version featured on the single lasts four minutes and 49 seconds. Another version lasted four minutes and 30 seconds, which later appeared on ''[[Singles 93–03]]''. The version featured on ''[[Exit Planet Dust]]'' is a live version, and is notably shorter at three minutes and 16 seconds. Though the 4:49 version has never been released on a Chemical Brothers CD, it appears on ''[[Junior Boy's Own|JBO]]: A Perspective 1988–1998'', a compilation of material mostly from the Junior Boy's Own label.
