coming from Ireland🇮🇪 i have no real experience of America’s experience. watching your vids and tracing samples taught me so much about the roots of hip hop and shown me so much great music. Míle buíochas leat! (A thousand thanks to you)
You gotta peep how and why this album was made. They were watching the Watts riots and went into major depression. Also that’s when Sly took a MAJOR descent into drugs. You can tell they were all high as hell by the way they played. The whole album was meant to have a dark feel to it. This record was meant to separate themselves from the “Everyday People” sound of the past. Sly just recently got some of the rights back to his music and yes, he was homeless for decades.
Totally different genre, but that album similar in style of nature of how rock "jam bands" like Grateful Dead and even Chicago, kinda go off-kilter, and just kinda, well... Jam! I mean think, these dudes all skilled on actual instruments. There had to be tons of just rocking in a studio, without necessarily the tape rolling. There was a dope record I snagged in dollar bins. I think it was called "worst records" or something like that. It was a comp of basically "leaks" of actual 1970s/80s studio session recordings. Didn't make it as album cuts. But you could hear what was going on through the mics in a session. Had a dope track on there: "the Troggs tapes" Any beat-digging drum break heads know the Troggs. Kinda dope hearing a back and fourth of the dudes on a tape that didn't necessarily turn into a record. I mean, how dope would it be to see/hear artists you dig their sound, making the records you like. Like, oh, that's how they made that? I think that's more the reason for sample-snitching. I mean, for those being cookie cutter, and not real diggers it's one thing. But beat-making folk searching for inspiration, I think that's motivating when you hear something, and be like, "oh damn, that's the track dude lifted that from?"
Big up Conductor. I see you rockin the SP 606 and MPC One! Dope combo....Sly Stone is still with us and doing OK. My cousin Tron could do the Bobby Blue Bland squall so good he sounds just like him. RIP Bobby Blue Bland. We're 70s babies and grew up on alladat classic music and flip it to make new timeless classics. "Conductor we have a problem!!... CONDUCTOR WE HAVE A PROBLEM!!!"
sly is still alive and lives by himself in a van no joke sing a simple song break was fundamental in 90's hip-hop/r&b and even main stream hits from alanis morissette but i haven't heard it used in years i'm guessing because sample clearance edit: just read that questlove will be doing a documentary about him!
Crazy you picked a funk classic …was listening to Funkadelic last night and Hit and Quit it came on and I thought mannn the Conductor could go to school on this joint.
Can someone explain the "feel", "texture" "sound" and "science" part to me, because I want to do this so I can put it in my art (i'm a producer for 2 years and a couple of months) , but I don't know if I quite understand?
You mention that Sly has passed away at about 4.10 in the video. I 'm sure that's news to him...He's still with us.
AY FR!!!

Check the patreon fam- but imma explain it a bit better in an upcoming video
did you here about the stems for the mpc it came out to day
Time to sneak a mudbone sample into a song - wind in my sails by Earl Sweatshirt is good example
Indeed!
@@ConductorWilliams perhaps the audience member who shouts “you crazy” in ‘that N-s crazy album’
Love that snippet
🫡🫡🫡
