Wow, this is a serious interview for them. They don't normally give so many straight answers. I have another interview from this same trip possibly. They have an embedded journalist with them for a day or two recording them. Telling wild stories about LL, Rick Rubin, and Russell Simmons. Playing music generally acting like drunk kids in another country experiencing the novelty of fame.
I hope nobody would mind if I put here the lyrics of unfinished sympathie :) I know that I've imagined love before And how it could be with you Really hurt me, baby, really cut me, baby How can you have a day without a night? You're the book that I have opened And now I've got to know much more The curiousness of your potential kiss Has got my mind and body aching Really hurt me, baby, really cut me, baby How can you have a day without a night? You're the book that I have opened And now I've got to know much more Like a soul without a mind In a body without a heart I'm missing every part He he-hey, he he-hey, he he-hey, ay, ay Aye, aye, aye, aye Like a soul without a mind In a body without a heart I'm missing every part Like a soul without a mind In a body without a heart I'm missing every part Like a soul without a mind In a body without a heart I'm missing every part (part, part, part) I don't know where this one came from I don't know where this, I don't know where this I don't know where this one came from
An old story written by Edam on the Stones Throw site brought me here. Apparently him, Madlib, and Peanut Butter Wolf were in the studio when this Mo Wax stuff was being recorded. This man is a legend. His work on the drums and his music in general is timeless. It stands by itself but I have to say that I’m glad his attitude about his work being sampled is positive. Him giving Dre his props for what he did with his music is refreshing to hear.
This is a fantastic mix. It maintains that aching feeling, while still feeling hopeful. You almost don’t miss the original floored bass that drove the original.
