Product Description
Run a Quick Search on "Protected: Massive Samples" by Various Artists to Browse Related Products:Browse more products related to "Protected: Massive Samples"Browse more products related to "Various Artists"Title NoteAfter their 2008 compilation of songs sampled by Daft Punk and Discovered, Rapster has gone back to the same well for a very different album. Protected compiles songs utilized (or covered) by Massive Attack, and this album is as different from Discovered as Massive Attack is from Daft Punk. Like MA themselves -- well, not exactly like them -- Protected is heavy on warm, funky grooves, like Wally Badarou's Balearic classic "Mambo," and is big on tracks with a big sound (cf. Al Green's "I'm Glad You're Mine" and especially Isaac Hayes' "Ike's Mood," seemingly recorded in Cinemascope). There's plenty of room for dub as well, with both John Holt's gently-skanking "Man Next Door" alongside "Five Man Army Dub" by Lewin Bones Lock. The record closes with a trio of superb, late-'70s-sounding jazzy funk tracks, from the Blackbyrds, Pieces of a Dream, and Rufus & Chaka Khan. This is not only an exceedingly well-sequenced compilation, it was clearly put together with a lot of love for its source material, and it sounds marvelous. Recommended not just for fans of Massive Attack, but also those who love trainspotting dusty funk, soul, jazz, and reggae grooves. ~ Thomas Inskeep If You Enjoy "Protected: Massive Samples (CD)", May We Also Recommend:Customer Reviews for "Protected: Massive Samples (CD)" by Various ArtistsThere are no customer reviews yet.
