Duck Sauce's first tracks are "
aNYway" and "You're Nasty". The track "aNYway" capitalizes "NY" to signify the duo's New York origins. The song was originally called "A New York Way" but was later shortened. The song samples "I Can Do It" by Final Edition. Duck Sauce's debut EP
Greatest Hits was released on July 15, 2010. In the summer of 2010, Duck Sauce released a track, "
Barbra Streisand", named after
the singer of the same name. The track heavily samples the 1979 song "
Gotta Go Home" by
Boney M., which itself is based upon "Hallo Bimmelbahn" by the German band Nighttrain, 1973. The famous hookline is written by Heinz Huth. "Barbra Streisand" was first played at Miami
Winter Music Conference in 2010 and gained heavy DJ and radio support in the UK, Ireland, Germany, Norway, Austria, Poland, France, Finland, Romania, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and Sri Lanka. The song peaked at No. 3 on the
UK Singles Chart and reached No. 1 on the Australian ARIA Club Chart as of 12 September 2010. For the
Billboard week ending December 18, 2010, the song reached the #1 position on the Dance/Club Play Songs chart. On April 26, 2011, the song was featured in the musical television series
Glee's 18th episode of their second season. The song was also featured in the
Vitamin Water Revive commercial. The "Barbra Streisand" music video reached over 100 million total views. "Big Bad Wolf" was released by Duck Sauce in 2011 on BBC Radio and samples wolves howling. The music video features genitalia replaced by human heads. A-Trak notes "When
Keith came up with this idea of 'crotchfaces,' we just thought it was hilarious." On June 6, 2013, announced via Facebook, a preview of the song "
It's You" was shown, with the full song released on June 25, 2013. "It's You" samples the track of the same name from FirstCom's OneMusic library. The music video features a barber shop transformed into a surreal dance party which comes to life with the beat of the song. The music video earned Duck Sauce a nomination at the
2013 MTV Video Music Awards. In October of the same year they released "Radio Stereo". The song is a rework of "Radio", a 1982 hit by UK punk act
The Members. The original chorus, "We listen to the radio! It's better than the stereo", is looped over a driving, funky bass and playful sampling. Songwriter Nigel Bennett of The Members was quoted saying that he was happy that Duck Sauce discovered his song and loved what they've done with "Radio Stereo". On October 12, 2013, they appeared on BBC Radio 1's Essential Mix. The first hour of that mix, which contained many unreleased demos, was later released as a mixtape titled
Duck Tape. On the Essential Mix broadcast Duck Sauce announced a full album,
Quack, to be released through
Fool's Gold Records in early 2014. The album features twelve songs by the duo, including "Barbra Streisand", "aNYway", "It's You", and "Radio Stereo". The album's lead single "
NRG" samples
Melissa Manchester's 1985 track "Energy" and was named
Zane Lowe's "Hottest Record in the World" on April 3, 2014. The album was released on April 14, 2014. ==Discography==
