“The wills and the wonts the does and the donts” – James Curd - my morning listening today.
Sneaks in under the hood and works on my brainwaves with his strange sounds. Not that strange actually – but just not ordinary.
Lovely downbeat track to start the day – in a smooth but energetic way.
Nice very straight beat and a funny bass line is what makes this track what it is. His voice fits perfectly with this music for the slow ones.
Then there is the Enzo Ponzio remix, that takes the oddness out a little further. Its still not VERY odd – odd in a normal way.. hehe. Is that possible? I guess here it is.
The timing of the words reminds of the first hip hop stuff from the est coast “Dont push me cause Im close to … the… edge” was it Grandmaster Flash? I think so. Nice timing – works all the time…. when it works. Confused? What I mean is, this kind of old school hi hop timing is almost archetypical, so if you dont use it the right way it will stick out and bite you in the nose..
Next track on this little James Curd trip is called “Back off move away”.
The timing is still very nice and thisn track is a little bit more busy – with a very active electronic arpegiator bass line. The production is very minimal – very tight and well defined roles that all sits well together. This track is not so chilled as the other tracks, but still nice. Funny Phil Collins like drum breaks and a nice little synt line that stops JUST before it gets annoying – so thats how its supposed to be.
I will trow myself out into this new day now – loaded with some new fresh old sounds.
Some strange track is waiting for my reptile brain to work on it in the most mysterious ways.
