Towards the end and it’s a jolt as much as anything else, if it was missing the track might sound even more coherent but maybe that’s why it’s present, to enhance dissonance in amongst its languid, harmonic-rich swing, even the time stretched bass intro’s molten form is mesmeric

there is a whole theory I once heard that RZA / WU TANG was fully informed by MORRICONE, in fact MORRICONE IS FOUNDATIONAL HIP HOP

I had this album as a kid and I listened to it everyday and then when I heard RZA WU TANG 36 CHAMBERS for the first time I KNEW they had done the same

obviously the highlight of WU TANG was MORRICONE PLUS "CRACK ROCK"

Is this well known? Sounds like someone played the riff from Black Betty while someone smashed the shit out of some drums but I think there is a Jews Harp in there too, also some throat singing or something plus the video looks like it was directed by Paradjanov... if he was more of a hack.

Exactly, I'm working with a limited selection here... I'm watching a tv show, that's the opening music, it's got a Jews Harp so I put it in the JH thread, I'm simple like that.

I love the video, the total opposite of any Laps or Siberians or Yakuits I've ever seen in actual documentaries- from what i can make out, in real life they are always hairy wizened dwarves smoking rollies made of three times recycled tobacco, clad in rotting uncured reindeer skin and trudging listlessly around the frozen north cruelly beating their herds along with their indistinguishable woman folk and praying the camera crew will give them some dollars so they can fuck that shit off and get back to their village where they will drink themselves unconscious on fermented horse milk and hope they get lucky with a yak.

Yet I guess I was wrong cos it turns out these guys are all models wearing furs by Gucci or something with cute fingerless mittens. These guys got all the luck I guess, hence their music is so amazing.
