90s Music Monday
So, in order to scratch the itch I dug through the giant pile o' stuff and dug out the Nightmares on Wax album. And lo, it's as chilled as my feverish brain remembered. Bizarrely I also dug out a copy of Paula Abdul's "Forever my Girl", a second copy of the Sneaker Pimp's seminal "Becoming X" and an unopened, still shrink wrapped copy of "Miss Kittin and the Hacker".
Oh, and the CD with the best. case. EVAR
So, in celebration and keeping in the downbeat tone of this cold, grey, San Francisco morning
a resampling of Quincy Jone's "Summer In The City" it is, to completely rip off someone elsewhere on the web,
which just about sums it up.
"a cinematic stab at trip-hop with a mix of retro soul strings, canons, and live instrumentation (bass, keys, guitar, organs, and vocals [by Sara Winton] are live). You can almost see the warm bodies, smell the smoke rising, and feel the listless sensuality in this song. It feels epic in scope yet tight as a clenched fist."
which just about sums it up.
