What’s Going On (David Tam x Los.Wav Remix)

Brought together a Bob Marley classic with a newer release called Mr. Pablo.
Was sitting on this for a bit unsure, but when I played it in the club last night people went OFF!
So here you are. Enjoy!

#HipHop has officially reached its #50thbirthday/#50thanniversary (August 11, 2023)! 🥳🎊🎉

I actually wasn't planning on making anything for that day and honestly had forgotten it would be this Friday, but I actually had a dream on Monday night. It wasn't a visual one, but instead I was listening to #PublicEnemy's #FightthePower, except in my dream radio, it was being remixed into some kind of #Afrohouse or #Afrobeat kind of groove mixed with #Funk, so as soon as I woke up, I got right into recording mode to capture the idea in my head.

There's no available acapella for the song and extracting it was audibly difficult, but I used my production skills to create a DIY one as best as possible, and played a new layered bass line, added the afro drums and percussion, guitars, and used both the original horns from #HotPantsRoad by #TheJBs & #JamesBrown(which PE sampled for their 1989 classic) but then added my own original horn arrangements, and I finished it just in time for today!

I changed the original opening speech with one from #MalcolmX (from December 1964 in England) that was befitting of the vibe of this week because it definitely reflects what happened in that #MontgomeryBrawl last weekend, and then i ended the track with a quote from #FelaKuti that also fit the energy of it.

With all that's happening around the global #AfricanDiaspora with enough being way beyond enough from the Alabama to #Niger, and with Hip Hop being the outlet created out of struggle in the streets of The Bronx, then throughout all of NYC, and then the rest of the nation and the world, it feels like stars aligned to bring the message of resilience and cultural revolution from the streets and the ghettos (and the council estates, townships, and favelas) to the masses ✊🏾

“What’s Going On (Andy Caldwell’s #LoveTrumpsHate Remix)”
A bootleg remix of Marvin Gaye’s classic “What’s Going On“ by Andy Caldwell.

Following the results of the 2016 US Presidential Election, who would have guessed, on the 45th anniversary of Marvin Gaye’s seminal 1971 album What’s Going On, that the title song would be more poignant than ever.

Simply nudging the tempo, refashioning the original bass line, adding some melodic pads and piano lines, Caldwell has created a simple update of this classic song, all in the key of C# Minor.

THE OFFICIAL SOUNDCLOUD ACCOUNT FOR AHMED SIROUR

Well, after having many tracks on Soundcloud, include various remixes that were up for years without any issue, SC started throwing strikes at me left and right, even with those I had proof I had permission to post, but they decided to take down my former page: (at)22music, inclusive of the thousands of wonderful followers who've joined me over the years.

So now I start back from the very beginning, the ground up, and hopefully many of you will find me again as well as newcomers who are hearing my work for the first time--and this time it will only be MY original work (or remixes that are verified)! lol Either way, I hope you take yet another journey again with me as I push the envelope with even more music, more positive vibrations, and more influences from around the world as I infuse my travels into my sounds...
