damit. That bloody bloc party remix was banging. It never got a full release on any format did it, except that waste grindie mixtape.

MURS "transition as a ridah" is another one. though he admits he cant even kickflip.

But this is beautiful. Damn I wish the mix was better. Just isnt fair that the weakest rappers get the biggest budgets in the studio.

it's a virtue that this tune sounds a decade out of date? Im not feeling. I know you dont feel it but at least with hyphy you know it's 2006. This is my problem with hip hop traditionalism. Like it has to sound 10 years old to sound authentic. commerical joints like "b boy stance", "99...

ODB (rip) in full effect. Whether u like the roots or not.. this is raw.. 17 yo Biggie murking Das EFX "freakit". The production on the 2nd album was sub zero coldness, the raps pure fire. So underrated. sound is beautiful thanks for the throbbing gristle and davies/coltrane vids.

I love the way Hannett brought reverb and delay to the forefront of the record. To me it vividly conjures images of warehouses, empty basements, desolate urban spaces.. I love the way Loefah does that too.

I read the Pharcyde were big into psychedelics during their first album. Maybe when they stopped tripping, they stopped making good records. The same could be said for Del the Funky Homosapien and Ghostface Killa, who both lost their sparkle when they stopped doing acid. Probably a gross...

I honestly couldnt feel Endtroducing anywhere like I felt "swan lake", "in/flux", "lost & found", "the wreckoning" remix, "zimbabwe legit", i genuinely loved those records, i knew them inside out, i was really dissapointed by his album. His earlier stuff was so much more ghostly, heavier...

Dance music is in a worse state of irrelevance and stagnation than Indie. At least schoolkids listen to rock music. Mainstream dance music is strictly for other 30s.

The new record, especially the remix version, has me completely forgiving him for the past 10 years of coffee table, edge-less wank. Both his albums were waste. But his pre 96 shit was genuinely fresh, as was the music coming out of Solesides. Personally i still think there's a missed...
