Das ist Kopf Nicken, Mad Wax

I remember ages ago ten years ago,  I was loungin' in a West German City near Magdeburg in a top floor apartment of some mates. These cats were all heavy doobie smokers, but they weren't obnoxious with the "come on and join us" call; they just let me lounge with my lager. The peer pressure thing must be an American one, or maybe it's that everyone there is tracked from first grade so they don't give a eff... but I digress.

After a lull in the conversation and laughter,  I looked around the room. It had just gotten too damn quiet amongst the group. In particular, I noticed every last one of them, including myself, was grooving to the downtempo grooves on the stereo, heads bobbin' in unison.

The cat I knew the best out of the group noticed me staring at the scene, and we didn't even have to communicate the thought;  he laughed loudly and declared "Jah, Mad Wax, das ist kopf nicken!"

I don't speak fluent German, so I asked for the translation, and ever since he told me, it's been my declarative thumbs up or thumbs down statement on whether a track passes muster or not. Is your track "kopf nicken?" :)
