Help me find that Star Wars techno song!

Help me find that Star Wars techno song! I'm looking for a track that fell off my psytrance/electro house Pandora station recently...

I could've sworn the title was Wahoo! or Ya-hoo! or something of that nature (which makes it pretty hard to Google). Anyways, it's a short little techno piece that heavily samples the old vector-based Star Wars arcade game's voiceover, in particular Luke's "Yahoo!" sound.

I know that one of the other samples has Luke addressing "R2" by name...

Any takers?

Is it "2 Skinnee JS - Irresistible Force"? Ryan "Darth" Bader, an MMA fighter, used this as his entrance music once.

Response by poster: Nah, this was much more straight-up blippy music in the MIDI/Atari vein, but with a really cute set of samples. Thanks, though.

It could be this. At least, it samples the game and is pretty good trance overall - not sure on the yahoos though! While we're combining dance music and Star Wars, though, this certainly deserves a watch by anyone interested in that combo ;-)

Response by poster: Nope. Far, far less trance than your first link.

I thought of the Morgan Phillips (aka Supergenius) Star Wars Breakbeats, but none seem quite right for what you're describing - though I found this 2005 AskMefi question on a similar topic, which might help.

Response by poster: Still not on the right track...

This is the closest song I can think of to the one I'm looking for.

This is a super long shot, but is it Star Wars Theme (The Force) by Twin (often misattributed to Aphex Twin)?

Response by poster: Still no, unfortunately - far blippier than that, but I appreciate you taking the shot!

Response by poster: Holy crap, WCityMike. While this still didn't get me the song I was looking for, there's just WAY too much effort from you for me not to give you a best answer. Goddamn.

Thanks, dude.
