One of my favourite albums. Del and Dan the Automator. Got to see him live outdoors in downtown Toronto. Epic

    I’ve always wondered where some of the samples on this album came from. Great tracks and energy the whole way through.

    “And here at the Corporate Institutional Bank of Time, we find ourselves reflecting, finding out that in fact, we came back. We were always coming back…”

      IIRC these are actually just their own recordings (might even be Damon Albarn doing the future-y voices on State of the Nation but I’m not the best at recognizing voices) and most of the samples are instrumentals, but I didn’t look very deep into it

        Oh well, I guess I’m still chasing that high of following a sample through to Lone Wolf and Cub.

        I just want to watch “The plan is programmed into every one of my thousand robots!”
