  • You don't ordinarily expect to find a young white man from Austin digging deep into the heart of Blowed Country True...but I had lived out there before then...circa 84-86.
  • She personally knows of writers who have tried shopping drafts on the subject to snobby New York publishing houses, but to no avail.
  • Friendly on so many levels. Yee jock in jest yet jock nonetheless. And of course this: http://westkoast.free.fr/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=3107&
  • Shouldn't Timbo maybe work with some authentic dancehall artists before a knock-off dancehall artist? The "a" word strikes again! -e Gwen Stefani makes MIA look like Ninja Man.
  • Shouldn't Timbo maybe work with some authentic dancehall artists before a knock-off dancehall artist? Plus I think that MIA's beats are already better than what Timmy would provide. A song or 2 together would be nice...but an album
  • ok so I was listening to the 12" last night...and I realized something even funnier... The b-side of this 12" samples a classical song. haha. You talking about Mike Jones - Got It Sewed Up? Did Salih produce it? Nope.
  • note to all musician: do not branch out from your minute sphere of interest, please don't study any music you yourself do not create. As a mater of fact run from knowledge that is the way to improve your craft. Then you can continue to be impressed …
  • Are y'all really that dense? Salih only said he never listens to classical msuic in the context of "these dudes are saying you sampled a classical piece". It wasn't a critique or turned-up nose against classical music as y'all's wet panties are tel…

  • Don't you spend most of your time trying to convince others that your own personal standards are the basis by which all other logical thought should be judged? I mean, no one else is allowed to criticize anything you personally hold dear. If I were …
  • Archaic all I can say is I'm glad you are not a school teacher. The above post was probably some of the most ignorant drivel I have ever read from you, and you've got some killers. Study of classical music has proven itself important and valuable ti…
  • it was a sampling keyboard...there mystery solved. He played it, recorded it, then looped it with effects added. There was no mystery to begin with...except for which keyboard he used. Who did he sample for the organ loop on Back Then? Must h…

  • Typical soulstrut. why? b/c I feel a MUSICian of 20 years should at least have a rudementary knowlede of classical MUSIC? Yes.
  • he doesn't listen to classical music...ever. He'd never heard of Clockwork Orange, let alone Rossini. Wow, my esteem for him grows and grows... Yes, along the lines of "I've been a musician for 20 years and I'm sick of people thinking I cou…
  • Yes, along the lines of "I've been a musician for 20 years and I'm sick of people thinking I couldn't create that ish without out-sourced samples". I don't think anybody's questioning his abilities as a musician, though; they're questioning the a…
  • Not only was he miffed that someone accused him of sampling the loop OK, why is he "miffed" about it, and why does he take it as an accusation? It's not as though people who were feeling the beat are all of a sudden saying, "Aww, he sampled that…
  • I gotta up this to help ward off the RUMOR that Salih used a sample for that violin loop. Seriously, listen again. what kind of keyboard did he play it on then? cause that shit sounds exactly like it. Producers love to lie about that shit. wh…

  • I visited Salih Williams' office/studio today and while there I let him know that some geniuses on the internet are so very sure that he sampled Rossini's Willaim Tell Overture for the violin loop on Still Tippin. I pressed that I listened to the s…
  • yeah archaic, that snippet pretty much proves that keyboard statement wrong. Y'all are calling Salih Williams a liar with this, just so y'all know. Personally I don't see why y'all think it would be so hard for him to replay the 3 notes...if it…
  • The violin sample from "Still Tippin" was played on a keyboard by Salih Williams and then looped with what he calls "a little crunch added to it".
  • He's so stoned he thinks it sounds good, but it really isn't that great for sober people. Ever-sober ODub gave it 5 stars. Ever-stoned me gave it 3.5 stars.

  • I disagree. I like it. It's funny. It's weird. It's different. So there...
  • Haven't seen the doc, but damned if Nas doesn't sound good on that Kanye track Dreams. Of course I kid...but what was the name of the previous "West Coast savior" from last year who sounded just like Biggie? C'mon now...
  • Are basslines an African thing? Ever heard anyone compare a bassline to the pulse of a heart? Ever had an isolated bassline stuck in your head for like years at a time?
  • What was the earliest bassline as we know a bassline today? I'd say Big Chief but that speaks more to programmed bass of the 808 rather than the played bass of rock, jazz, and funk. What are your favorite reggae basslines? I'mma go with Augustis Pa…
