Loved this account of the life and legacy of a hip-hop producer who changed the game.
This joined so many dots for me regarding music I love and music I’m interested in, so I had the same kind of great reading experience as with Join the Future.
I enjoyed learning more about The Soulquarians. And as a fan of Flying Lotus, I also loved the later sections which helped me realise how influenced he was by Jay Dee too. This prompted me to think about Dabrye too, and although he isn’t mentioned in the book I did some digging and found a nice interview about his collaboration with Dilla for Game Over.
I highly recommended you grab a copy!
PS the accompanying Dilla Time website, inc. Listening Guide is great, too.
