We've talked this guy up before, and maybe we're a little sorry about it. His moniker is Al Lover. A while back, Al released an ambitious remix project, splicing and mashing numerous artists from the Woodsist record label into a giant megamix. Hearing lo-fi psychedelia crossbred with hip hop beats was quite the treat, but spreading word about this project only resulted in its eventual removal.
In response to the requested take-down, Al has released a new mix titled Creative Controlled: A new set of beats and loops set to the theme of copyright. Loads of vocal samples throughout the 30-minute piece argue for the freedom of artists to build upon, copy, and remix another person's work. No matter what side of the isle you're on with this issue, the music is pretty catchy. Download Creative Controlled below.
A while back, I posted a "megamix" of songs from the Woodsist label put together by a bright, young mixer and masher, Al Lover. Well, my posting of the mix was partially what got him in hot water with Woods and the good people at Force Field PR. He was asked to take the mix off his blog, but Al hasn't stopped doing what he does best.
He's got a concept album of sorts on the way titled Creative Controlled, and it's loosely based around themes of music piracy and copyright. "Baby Please" is from the LP, and I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I am. The beat delectable, and the vocal samples are placed perfectly.-
