A masterpiece in hip-hop history born from the magic of sampling.
This EP is known for "900 Number," which features a repeated funky horn riff. Despite its simple structure, it's a classic hip-hop piece that stands out for its skillful sampling and rhythm construction.
Characterized by repeated horn phrases and a fat beat, this album is considered a pioneer of minimal groove in hip-hop. "The 900 Number" is a simple loop, yet incredibly addictive, and the unique atmosphere created by the constructional techniques of turntables and samplers symbolizes the freedom and creativity of early '90s hip-hop. The excellent mixing, which makes use of the rhythmic space, makes this a record that will remain in the history of club music.
