any de la soul fans here? I can't get enough of their stuff, their awesome fusions of all kinds of styles and their generally positive ryhmes, they may be a little dated but I really dig there style, (not to mention that their instrumental albums are awesome as well, the music can really stand on it's own I reckon) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Are they still dead? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
possibly, they'd be getting old by now |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
*hugs* it's just me, myself and i but only the first two albums |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they're the only ones I can get into as well, I think the later ones are the better instrumental albums though.. I want to hear bionix with vocals particularly, |

Hey yo kid! whatsup? Remember when I used to be dope? yeah. I owned a pocket full of fame, but look what your doin' now. I know, well I know.. I lost touch with reality now my personality is an unwanted comodity. |

got to see them at sonar. was a great show until fucking kanye west jumped out and started ruining it. |

Buhloonemindstate has some decent tracks on it "I am I be" "breakadawn" etc... |

I hate it when a bad mc ruins an otherwise awesome act. |

What could it mean...? *spook* |

reusing old labels maybe? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
I like their work with Gorillaz on the latter's new track. Damn good, shows they've still got it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ah, but that image is reversed. The label would have been printed backwards. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
maybe it was a blank label and a de la soul record was sitting on top of it, and the ink pressed off onto the blank afx record label. well that's all I can think of without getting TECHNICAL! |
||||||||
|

I say it's aliens! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
maybe they're trying to send a subtle hint that they want a collaboration to take place, or maybe it's a PREMONITION! |

*gasp* cue twilight zone theme. |

can anybody recommend me anything similar to this? |
||||||||
|
|

|
I have an album of theirs from 2001... dont know the name... they go like astronaouts I like it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think that one is bionix, which is the one I have the instrumental form, but not the proper album I like "held down" off tha album in it's instrumental form |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
de la are great! I saw them live a few weeks ago too, and they rocked the spot! it's great stuff for feeling good! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what is their live stuff like? is it all real drums/bass/instruments etc.. or is it just straight decks and mc's? |
||||||||

If you like this music than you might like tribe called quest |

cheers mate, sounds like it kicked a lot of arse, IU had no idea they were still active to be honest, I might see if they're coming to oz sometime... so, what was there setup up like then? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I actually can't remember their setup exactly, which is why I tried avoiding the question with that link. there were decks, but I have a feeling there was a drummer too... it could've just been a drum-set that was on-stage, but I think there was a guy drumming. I'm pretty sure there was no large ensemble at least... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
everyone should like a tribe called quest! |

the first albums have some spontaneous feel to them, not like that "oooo ooo ooo oooo" pop shit later on. seems like they were more relaxed in the beginning. "better instrumental" - i've never paid much attention to their sound... well, i haven't heard the latest albums so i can't really say peace |

all the ones after that definitely sound more polished. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
awesome. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's worth noting that some selected public enemy tracks sound very "de la soul"ish (mostly I mean musically, not vocally) |
