horns

Post by Reason »

name some tracks with some smooth horns, whether played live or sampled, whether they were the focal point loop throughout the entire track or just a random horn sound sparsely used yet mellifluous

this is a random list. however, i regard, and think most of yall agree, t.r.o.y. to be the goat with the horns.

de la soul - i am i be
rakim - it's been a long time
kurious - leave ya with this
black moon - i gotcha open
casual - get off it
del - memory loss
digable planets - dog it

edit: i never paid much attention in music class so uhhh, if by horns i'm including "woodwinds" or other shit that is just similar sounding, then yea...don't mind me

I might have the wrong track as I don't have the CD in front of me, but I remember a slow horn loop at the beginning, which I think 3rd Bas had used before them.

ahh yes. i have the cd staring me in the face and didn't think of it. good looks.

so do people still use soulseek? i'm kinda considering trying to get every single track mentioned here (save thun's response :lol:)...maybe make a bunch of mixes with volumes and volumes of horn-heavy tracks

"horny horns" actually. dissappointing they didn't rap on that one.

if you havn't heard Time Machine's track "night lights" yet peep that one asap. best horns in a long ass time.
