1. "Before the official release, "100 Metre Dash" was my favorite" In response to Reply # 0
In tie with that was the original mix of "Giving Up The Ghost". The official release changed it up, removed "100 Metre Dash" and a new, slower mix of "Giving Up The Ghost" was released.
With the album as it was released, a tie between "Right Thing/GDMFSOB" and "You Can't Go Home Again".

6 days...damn. and to hear that the "6 day war" vox were found after the track was built--and fit SO WELL--makes me believe that cosmic digging spirits do exist.
right thing--I marvel at the technical aspects of it. I wonder how many mpc pads and swing adjustments it took to make that one.

this album should be a required study for anyone who uses an mpc as their main beatmaking tool.
he added some roland rack sampler (forgot the model) to his arsenal for the album, but I recall him saying that all the fx were resampled and assigned back into the mpc for sequencing. really amazing how me maximizes the mpc's capabilities--and never lets the tool be an obstacle to his vision.
and beyond all the technical stuff, the album has everything: dramatic sounds, humor, fun shit, etc.
