grab a hold on you





It is the soothing thing about history that it does repeat itself. Gertrude Stein


verve remixed is one of my favorite compilations to be release this decade. its merge of techno, dj artistic sensibilities, and vintage classics and standards, make for a blended sound that seems to be grounded in at least two or three generations, very much like me.

here's an example of their hybrid sound that marries the styles of 70's soul diva marlena shaw and our 21st century's diplo/mad decent.

i think it's bananas.. a courtship worth legalizing.

Like a sound you hear
That lingers in your ear
But you can't forget
From sundown to sunset
It's all in the air
You hear it everywhere
No matter what you do
It's gonna grab a hold on you
