The Litmus Test

https://soundcloud.com/civillianwashere

A year and a half ago, That African approached Civillian with a challenge: to collaborate and create a “good” mix of current-era rap music. As long time purveyors of Golden-Era Hip-Hop™, they couldn’t ignore the infectious good vibe that exploded onto the dance floor when the DJ hit a stride in a set of good modern rap. As fans of quality hip-hop, they also couldn’t ignore how generic, corny, and generally bad a lot of it is.
Thus, they had their work cut out for them: to weed through the whack, and bring you only the finest of this new rap phenomenon.

In the last few months, I've been excavating old cassettes from the "Mom's House" era. This installment is a simple sample tape from 1993. Sample tapes are what I used to make in order to remember which loop ideas I liked as I listened to records I either just got or had sitting around for a while. Most are just one element. There are a couple of layered arrangements as well which means I had high hopes they would turn into something. Happy to say a couple of these samples found nice homes as you may recognize.

Mom's House:  Sample Tape 12/93

As the year’s challenges grow, I find myself more attracted to music as escapism. These are collection of songs which help me float away to another place (and a few that just have me nodding my head). I hope they hit you right.

Recorded in 1 take with 2 turntables and some scratches overdubbed.
