A friend of mine just bought a 3X12" funk compilation called "Pulp
Fusion" (Harmless). It has "Burning Spear" by S.O.U.L. This is where
the original flute sample comes from used in last year's abstract
downtempo classic "Casual Sub" by ETA (East West). Pete Rock and CL
Smooth used a variation of that same loop in "Go with the Flow" (Elektra
1991). Lately I've been spinning some flutes with my downtempo (Beastie
Boy's "Flute Loop" and Instrumental, ETA "Casual Sub",
Up-Bustle-and-Out, Herbie Mann, Groove Collective, etc...). Can anybody
think of any other tracks with flutes on them worth finding on vinyl. As
of now I can go for about 30 minutes on the flute tip. Similarly, does
anybody know of any decent flutist that might be worth sampling? I think
I'm just going to have to tweek out my buddy's Akai Remix 16 and finally
take that plunge from DJ to bedroom producer.
Also, I just saw this on a new release sheet:
PETE ROCK & CL SMOOTH - They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y.)
$ 10.00 Format: 12 Sub-style: HIP HOP (Elektra,
France)
2 trk - Vocal and Instrumental. "Creator (Slide To The Side)"
Remix,
"Creator": Slide To the Side Remix, EP Mix (Vocal), EP Mix
(Instrumentla)
The only track I have by them is the one previously mentioned ("Go with
the Flow") 12" single. Is any of their other stuff any good? What LP
was that track taken from? Is that worth finding?
Peace,
Pedro Cevallos
