MPC4000 and some samples. It’s difficult to break new ground in hip-hop without doing some weird avant-guard nonsense (see the new Beans album “ZWAARD” – which isn’t bad, but it knows what it is).
I like this one, I think it works well. I like the change in tone during verses. And as in cohesive as it is, it seems to find some sort of harmony. Drums fall where they may, but it’s not as self-indulgent as it sounds.
I long for some more Roc Marcy production with Stove, but I don’t think we’ll see that any time soon.
Also, I’m running out of variations of the “Tuck ya Chain” sample 😐
