Parallel Universe
The Remix Album
4 Hero is one of those outfits that just does not stumble. I have been cutting through Parallel Universe and The Remix Album all morning and I have to say I never get tired of some of these cuts.
I am damn fond of their remixes of I am The Black Gold of the Sun by Nuyorican Soul, and Goldie's Inner City Life (of which I also recommend finding the acoustic remake sung by Jhelisa). An especially sumptuous and ambitious rework is the classic jazz standard Naima by John Coltrane that builds interview samples in the intro with a slack and phat vamp built from a splicing of Tyner and Jones drum and piano parts, and letting the bulk of the horn work remain intact.
Outstanding jungle/soul goodness.
