Nice spaced-out, slo-mo disco from the likes of Peter Brown and Patrick Adams, both producers in the late 1970’s disco scene that unwittingly (like so many) helped give birth to the rise of hip-hop. Back in the day, before the likes of Run DMC and The Beastie Boys, rappers would rock the mic over an instrumental track, usually the B-Side of a disco single (with an extended version). Cloud One by Patty Duke was a popular tracks to use, rapped on by the likes of Spoonie Gee, Scoopie and Family. Check it.
