That's amazing that (per Bill) this was released in 1981, with the guy being born in 1976 and all.... Talk about a prodigy!! ;)

Definitely some Death in Vegas influence in there I think. Very similar sound but about 5 years later.

hahahaha!! good catch — who types in the song info anyway? lots of typos...... 2002 is the correct release date. If it were released in 1981, the guy behind RJD2 was only 5 years old...  |

To clear the confusion from below... (With apologies to Amazon...) Biography RJD2 is an instrumental hip-hop artist and producer. His debut album, Deadringer, was released on Definitive Jux in 2002 to rave reviews, many of which claimed it was like a sequel to DJ Shadow's masterpiece Entroducing.... The following year he released The Horror, which featured one CD of rarities and b-sides, and a multimedia disc of videos and animations. His second proper album, Since We Last… Read more in Amazon's RJD2 Store |

Hey, it's the official song of the NBA! BTW, this couldn't have been released in 1981!!  |

So we have Emerson Lake and Palmer and RJD2 in the same set again? Coincidence...?  |

I drop-kicked cable a year ago. I don't miss it. I got a PVR, which works nicely with broadcasts, even HD. I can't do commercials but there are some things worth watching. Glad I can record stuff like Austin City Limits and some of the other cream that manages to rise to the top. Oh yeah, I have a lot of great hobbies too. I think I would like quilting. |

I likes RJD2, but this one isn't one of his more inspiring pieces. . .

I saw them (him) play in Flagstaff AZ about a year ago.. it was a great show with some entertaining visuals projected behind him. Not a lot of electronica passes through this hippy town, so I made it a point to show up (not having heard of this guy before). I left the show with a smile on my face. Plenty of dancin'.  |

Absolutely great song, as well as a great album featuring top notch underground hip-hop artists. If you like this kind of electronica music, you might like Jesus Wore Dickies, check the album Terminal Island out

mamerjamer wrote:Is this song added to RP off of vinyl or is the crackle effect (like a slightly pitted vinyl record) added into the RJD2 recording? Interesting. I may have noticed it before, but it really jumped out at me this time. Anybody know?
Most likely it is just added, like with a gazillion other songs. Hell, even I have done it during the short time that I attempted to create music, and that was more than 10 years ago. Sampling some crackling vinyl and digitally mixing it into the song is a whole lot easier than stamping the song to a record and re-recording it to CD. |

Or, they should learn the power of the mute button. I instinctively mute whenever a commercial comes up. For added fun, invent your own soundtrack with each commercial. |

This song rocks. I wouldn't mind at all if i heard it used for adverts though i haven't. Surely its better to have good music than bad in the background of these things.
