venomai Posted July 16, 2009 Author Share Posted July 16, 2009 Probably Intriguing, I've never really been into Aesop. :P heard the sample for Represent, I'm turning into a sampple geek. I know what you mean. The more I listen to Madlib's beats and other sample-rich tracks, the more I'm itching to go digging through old vinyl crates to find the originals. Today I installed an open source Digital Audio Workspace and copped a few Nas acapellas -- I'm hoping to learn the basics of sampling and production.

Intriguing Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I love Lucy Ford :| No problem warri0r, I do think it was someone on the forum (Intruiging or Venomai?) that first made me realize how good Aesop is. Maybe it's just me then. I think I've listened to it twice and I really didn't enjoy it either time.. Might give it another go though. And I'm not sure. I like Aesop Rock but I don't remember recommending him to anyone. I really need to get into some more Hip-Hop. I want to listen to some good gangster stuff. Any recommendations? Cool.

nine naked men Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Another two worth mentioning, Cage and Dynospectrum. Dynospectrum has both Slug from Atmosphere and Swifty from D12 in it, only put out one album, which is self-titled, and really good. And Cage is just a great rapper. My favourite album of his is probably Movies for the Blind, but I really like his newest one, Depart from Me, as well. sleep like dead men wake up like dead men Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was more that I saw you saying how you liked a certain song by him, and I had heard of him before, so I checked it out. There's no such thing as regret. A regret means you are unhappy with the person you are now,and if you're unhappy with the person you are, you change yourself. Thatregret will no longer be a regret, because it will help to form the new,better you. So really, a regret isn't a regret. It's experience.
