This beat was LONG to flip, took me multiple days of working on it for 8+ hours until I was happy it. I’d sped up the sample on my turntable to flip it around 90 BPM (originally it must have been 70 something), and based on the way I chopped it, it was looping at around 94 BPM. It was just one of those samples where it was from a more freeform part of a song which wasn’t necessarily constricted by one BPM or time signature, so even though my chops were looping at 94 BPM, certain notes and areas were out of time, which just took absolutely ages to fix. Essentially I had to listen to the track over and over across several days, working out which chops were out of time, and then chopping them up into one, two or even three more pieces depending on the issue, so I could sequence it myself and slightly adjust the timing to match the BPM and time signature of how I wanted to flip it. It was definitely worth it in the end, I was really happy with how the beat turned out.

Hope people enjoy this one, happy to finally drop it. Peace!

This song really resonates with me on mad levels, De La Soul always speak facts and touch on deep topics, and the way they do that on this track is crazy to me, the subject matter is nuts. Last time I remixed it I went for a very different vibe, going for a sample with a sound that fit the whole underwater vibe. Had to do something completely different here, I flipped this sample to focus on the idea of moving on from negative situations to focus on positivity, and thought that fit well with the verses here, seeing as making a change like that is definitely a journey with mad opportunities to slip up and make the wrong decisions. As I’ve got older that’s what stands out to me most about this De La Soul track, more often than not you’ll find yourself in ‘troubled waters’, and it’s mad important to recognize this and be aware of how you can ‘sink’, and make sure you keep your focus and do what’s right for you. Can translate into so so many different things it’s crazy, and that’s defo what makes this track so timeless to me. 

Went crazy again layering different elements of this sample, it gives the track a lot of variation and meant I could bring more emotional elements and melodies in for the more serious parts of the verses, which is something I’ve always wanted to do when remixing this song. It did make it a bit difficult to mix though, the layering is good cause it gives the sample a lot of weight and makes the sound full, but it can drown out the acapella, especially with this one where a lot of the instruments had quite high resonance. I really did turn up the acapella loads, making sure it was mixed and EQd right before that, and ended up turning it up by nearly 10DB, which is way way more than I ever normally would, but I really didn’t want the verses to get completely lost under the beat. 

Hope people enjoy this one, defo let me know what you think on it, I’ll leave a link to my other remix of this, would be interesting to hear which one people like more.

Troubled Waters (Time To Think)

Just imagine if this happened and picture the setting…

It’s the late 1930’s and the local jazz club is packed to the brim with people awaiting the rapper Nas and his jazz musicians (orchestrated by Producer Funky DL) along with featured artists to come and play a 10-track set to forever be remembered. The lights are dim and the hall is filled with smoke, whilst the clinking sound of champagne flutes ambiently gesture in the atmosphere. Nas and Funky DL are having their picture taken outside the club in an array of spotlights glaring from their vehicles (see artwork). Then it happens… The two step inside and “JAZZMATIC” erupts … All you have to do now is… “press play”...  (PLEASE NOTE, THIS IS THE INSTRUMENTAL VERSION)
