roger troutman - "i am superman" (download) It's been a while since I've posted some Roger Troutman . This one is a cover of The Clique 's 1969 track "Superman," which was later made famous by REM . Roger's version adds some of his classic vocoder and more bounce, flipping it into a completely new song. buy

Today please take a moment and celebrate the life of one man who did so much for his city, family and friends. A Church Man, Non Drug user and Perfectionist that changed the sound of music. With his home made Voice Box, he took the nation by storm which was later brought back to life decades later by some of today's pop artist. No one can replace you, many have duplicated you, but you CANT deny the sounds of Roger Troutman and Zap
A self-proclaimed "glitch hop" trio from the deepest, darkest digital realms of London, Zen Death Squad are the alchemists behind masterfully named tracks such as 'Awesome Patrol' and 'Cyber Dojo Lazer Training'. Their latest tune, a remix of Roger Troutman's 'I Am Superman', is a synth-drenched journey through a stuttering musical time portal that leaves you with static remnants fizzing in your eyes. Bearing a bassline that wobbles harder than jelly on your Grandma's chin and wiggling vocals throughout, you'll probably be wearing your pants over your trousers before the boffins at Topshop can even conceptualize it as the next [...]

" California Love " est sans aucun doute le morceau le plus connu de 2Pac . Sorti en 1995 juste après sa libération de prison, il annonce tout de suite le retour fracassant du rappeur qui à l'époque devait faire un séjour de plus de quatre ans derrière les barreaux et en était finalement sortit au bout de huit mois. L'affaire avait été arrangée par Suge Knight , son nouveau producteur, car 2Pac venait alors de rejoindre l'écurie Death Row . Deux autres personnalités l'accompagnaie nt sur ce morceau : Dr. Dre et Roger Troutman. Le premier, Dr. Dre , est [...]

B.cause does it again...he is a good friend of HTS crew, he has played with us at Koko Cocktails when we used to do Behind The Groove, and has rocked it in the basement for Sweaterfunk. I play his Cierra/Kashif remix wayyyy too much...his California upbringing is apparent through his style and selection...I first met B.Cause when I was a young cub protege of Toph1, and he has always been gracious and humble. This is his latest mix, a medly of Roger Troutman (with Zapp) orginals and songs that sample his work. RIP ROGER! [...]

Here's a song about Ghostface's affection for his 1984 Apple Macintosh ][ computer. The green/ black monitor, Carmen Sandiego in text format, and a sweet 5.25" floppy. Ghostface was living large back then. Naw. I'm jus playin'... It's Ghostface over some of that oh-so-sweet Zapp & Roger. I made love to three white women while playing this.

lastnightsparty Don't thank me for the following tracklists, thank Buffetlibre who sent me the tracks. They recently released Rewind, their 80's cover project which includes some of my favorite artists. They will also be releasing a mixtape July 15th which I'm definitely looking forward to. There's so many tracks that I had to separate it into multiple posts (though if it exceeds three posts I'll probably just runoff the tracks into other normal posts). I really had a hard time figuring out which tracks I liked cause [...]
