A-MEN!

Posted by BLAZEOHMYDAYZ!

This mini-doc was brought to my attention about a year ago and it maps the journey of a six second drum solo, from existing as a flamboyant display of musical panache, to being included in globalisations' unseen arsenal of subliminal weaponry and simultaneously becoming the basis for an entirely new musical genre.




Although the narrator sounds as if his vocal chords have been reduced to the grand total of one, he makes some excellent observations on the history of Hip-Hop culture and manages to shed some light on the murky beginnings of Drum and Bass.

So. If you've seen it,
RE-school yourself and if you haven't, proceed and become musically learned.

Out.
