July '05 Theme Music



It's crazy how music marks time. I've just been listening to a few old CDs & got some major nostalgia off some tracks that are only a couple of years old:

Slug & Murs - Morris Day
Great title to start with & this is the perfect summer song. Really captures the feel of lounging outside in the sun, not doing too much


Jay Z - December 4th rmx
This is definitely 1 of the better efforts of the innumerable remixes & mashups of tracks off the Black Album. The soul sample's nearly as good as the 1 Just Blaze used on the original & the chipmunk vocals are uplifting &, more importantly, don't get annoying.

Gucci Mane ft Jeezy - Icy
For a little contrast to the soul feel on those 2 joints..


Ying Yang Twins - Whisper Song (70s mix)

More Rich Harrison than Snap Yo Fingas, I love it when a rmx sounds this different to the original (assuming it still sounds good).


Zero 7 & MF Doom - Somersault (Dangermouse rmx)
More summertime music, more lounging in the cut laid back cold lamping with a tall cool glass of O.J. Nice.


Not sure if my taste's evolved much, as I still like all these. What I did notice is I was really into rmxes a coupla years ago.
