This is one of those hip-hop tracks that is very nostalgic and sets the vibe right for us. The catchy sample and smooth chords, brings out that dilla - pete rock typed productions, along with the catchy hook "Cant get ahead, from falling behind"! Hits home for us. The drums swing and bang at the same time, keeping our heads in a constant bop. One of those special hip-hop tracks ☺.
We were listening to this track yesterday morning, while we have stayed up all night to finish a remix when it started snowing outside. It was the first time for (Leon) to see snowfall here in Berlin and paired with the song, made the moment one to remember for us as we looked out the window, with two headphones via a aux-splitter. Beautiful moment!
Heres a picture of the snow out the window for us
This EP has other gems on it as well but this song stood out for me the most. The legendary 90s east-coast hip-hop sound can be heard throughout the record :) Hope you guys enjoy the song and let me know what you think! This song definitely warms you if you are in a colder climate, take care of each other!
This song Falling Behind II contains samples from Bobby Hutcherson - Montara. A loop section starting from 0.04 seconds, in my opinion, great find!
