177. "Prince's first song and last song blend perfectly together"
In response to In response to 0


          

I had the idea to make a beat out of his first song on his first album--"for you"--and his last song on his last album--"big city".

Here's the beat:

https://chrisp.bandcamp.com/track/7816

As I was putting it together I realized that the vox harmonies on the former mixed perfectly with the instrumentation on the latter.

I was beyond excited, like any time I find samples that compliment each other that I can layer into a beat.

But I was also kinda weirded out--wondering if this was intentional, wondering if he bookended his career on purpose, and wondering if he knew the end was near. Got goosebumps. Felt like I cracked some code or something.

Anyways, thought I'd share. Still discovering things about his music. Still can't believe he's not with us. Still mourning.

7 beats down. 50 more to go...

Happy 50th D’Angelo: https://chrisp.bandcamp.com/track/d-50
