Blow my Mind

A lament  about the state of affairs at the beginning of the Reagan years. 

With respect, I cut and rearranged it extensively, keeping what I felt were still the most relevant lyrics for 2013.
Although there were a number of short instrumental parts later in the track, there was  literally no clean loop for the introduction so I had to create one by cutting and splicing small grabs from the main body of the tune and reconstructing a series of instrumental loops for this purpose. 

The structure of the original is introduction _ poem _ song. 
I rearranged this using the song parts as a chorus with the selected poem parts as a form of verse in between, and attempted to keep true to the flow and build of the original. Not too heavy but still to the point. 

Added some extra drums for more stomp, some subtle effects and layering of bass sections. Moved the tempo up to 107. Hope you enjoy it!

Gil Scott-Heron - B Movie (Lac's give em hell edit)

Folks seemed to dig the Curtis Mayfield rework, so I hope you like part deux of my lil Gang Starr 'Take a rest' tribute, with the main ingredient being these guys from New Orleans called The Meters. To me personally, after James Brown, The Meters is the second funkiest bunch out there, Kool & The Gang being the third. Word to Primo!

THE METERS 'FUNKY MIRACLE' (SERGE GAMESBOURG REWORK)

parole scorrono veloci, come veloce è il diteggio sulla tastiera ... prendono musica con l'intelligenza artificiale ... il contrasto tra musica Seria, musica Artificiale e testo polemicamente allegro

Marlena Shaw - Liberation Conversation (Dj XS Edit)

Smoove & Turrell return with the first new single from their forthcoming album ‘Mount Pleasant’ - a storming double-A side with disco cut - ‘You’re Gone’ and the gorgeous and ironic ‘A Deckham Love Song’.   

From the moment John Turrell heard label mate Izo FitzRoy’s debut album “Skyline” he knew they had to work together and started adapting a song he was working on “You’re Gone” with her in mind.

The result is an absolute ear worm of uplifting chic style instrumentation combined with haunting lyrics – disco dynamite delivered with feeling as John & Izo’s vocals perfectly encapsulate the balance of frustration, pride and vulnerability present in a lovers argument
