Ah yes--another cover of one of my favorite songs by the late Prodigy, one half of Mobb Deep from the album Return Of The Mac. Bang on 'Em, produced by The Alchemist.

Many samples from a late 1960s era obscure pop singer I do not know were used in the aforementioned song The Alchemist. I attempted to transcribed those vocals into what would become the lead or melody of this cover.

This, in addition to Survival Of the Fittest (by Mobb Deep) mark the beginning of my foray into producing covers of songs from other musicians. T.R.I.-outs: Tributes, Renditions and Interpolations. My motto regarding the covers I produce tends to be a simple one: if they don't sound as close to the original as possible, at least I T.R.I.-ed. Got it? :) Great. More to come... Peace out.

R.I.P. Prodigy.

Let LFO Funk and LFO-ism commence.

There is the steak sauce, A-1; Air Force One and Marine One; Three Times Dope's EST The Acknickulous One, WWE's AJ Styles, the Phenomenal One; Broken Matt Hardy's drone Vanguard-One, XBox One, Orleans 1970's hit single "Still The One" and there's Alphard The Solitary One. 

And then there's yours truly--Alphard One. 

The electronically produced music which adorns this particular profile is akin to Monk Fruit for the Mic, Stevia for the Speakers and--above all else--Erythritol for the Eardrums. They are harmonies that consist of the kind of sweetness that your ears would never mind being their weakness. 

As of January 2K20, yours truly Alphard One has something of a schedule--meaning that certain months of the year will have certain tracks in the spotlight playlist in rotation. The following list should provide an example, though tentative at the moment:

*January: Rod Taylor (Based on the late actor best known for his role in The Time Machine, Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds, Outlaws and his portrayal of Winston Churchill in Quentin Tarentino's Inglorious Bastards)and AU (Australia Day).

*March: Kremlin Blok Party (A month long spotlight on underground music's only Soulful Soviet Synth Song--so Stop Stalin And Start Lenin Your Ears.) Hate Putin? You'll at least love the single.

*April: Ambient April and Happy Noodsta Day (An introduction to the Noodsta Saga--the backbone of Aussie Boom Bap, and Coinciding with ANZAC Day in Australia and New Zealand).

*May: Antaeus Envy (Beginning on Cinco de Mayo, May 5, and ending on the 31st) and Queen's Coronation (Beginning on Victoria Day--although, I'm not Canadian, I am down with May Two-Four!)

*August: AMBIENT ALERT! Ambient August, the second month of the calendar year when more tunes which exemplify my take on the Ambient genre can be found on the playlist. In the tradition of Aphex Twin, Tangerine Dream, Brian Eno, Yasuaki Shimizu and The Kyoto Connection.  Yeah, I go there.

*October: The Komenation--In observation and acknowledgement of Breast Cancer Awareness Month(October 1-31)

*November: Post Modern Thump Month (Making Boom Bap Boom Again/Keep Boom Bap Booming)

*December: Russ Tamblyn (whose birthday falls on the 30th of that month) and Alternate Noodsta Day (All month long up until the 19th whereupon a new track based on the Noodsta Saga will be released--Wait and see,,,all I can say at this point)

Everything else in the current playlist is featured all year round (including Divine Bangers, LFOstrumentals, Celestial Trips, TRI-outs and A1C1s: Alphard One's Certain Ones). In the meantime, take a listen yourself and feel free to Like/Share/Repost/Follow. 

If I haven't said this already: once you do, it is certain that you will become a Phan of Alphard--Convinced and Converted.
