After
watching the Giants destroy the Braves for my final journey
to The Stick, I trekked over to Casa de Domino to watch Pittsburgh
destroy the Browns in the Cleveland Home Opener (September
12th 1999). Domino had couched it for a whole day of football
and was satisfied with the Steelers' win. After the game was
over I went down into the dungeon to check out some of Domino's
new beats he was making for Pep Love's album (currently titled
"Ascension"). Since I had my video camera I asked
him to briefly walk me through the development of the beats.
Click on the numbered clips to step through each beat's process.
I was surprised at how obscure the samples were, but wasn't
surprised with how tight the beats came off. A week later
on a photo shoot with Pep, I heard the vocals he had done
for one of the beats (Course 2) and got a bit more excited.
The album will be quite nice to the ears.
