I was recording a song, just looking for a sample of someone talking while travelling to space, clicked on this link, got sucked into the groove, and here I am now floating away into another dimension...
I have been bumping this joint...volume full blast since downloading it from Amazon last week! I heard it ONE TIME on late night radio back in the day...but never heard the name of the artist and had begun to think that I only imagined hearing it.It has haunted my "erotic disco" fantasies soundtrack for all these years.This cut and other similarly themed tracks like Donna Summer: Love to Love You & DC LaRue: The Real Thing were just way out front of it all.Mad love for posting this gem.
It has been sampled by Sean Combs 2 times, and the 2nd time was after he lost an infringement suit when he produced for Biggie's movie, and the first time was when they released an album which sampled this song. (she was my neighbor at one time)
so good... Asha must be one of the most underrated singer ever... everything she did has such a magic touch be this be Disco jazz with ornette Coleman or Funk teo Macero produced Astonishing Lady
it's good that some give credit. they all should. i'm a big fan of sample based music. early hip-hop turned me on a lot of classic soul i might not have ever been exposed to. however, my point is that the sample-based producers don't lend legitimacy to the orignal artists -- it's the other way around.
Everyone That Got Something Negative To Say About Puff Obviously Never Took The Time To Look Inside The CD's And Read The Production Credits. "The World Is Filled" was produced by D-Dot who you may know better as The Mad Rapper/Mad Producer, who did a lot of production for Bad Boy. Puff doesn't physically make the beats, but he is a genius at arranging and knowing the way he wants them to sound. The 48 Laws Of Power #7: "Get others to do the Work for you, but Always Take the Credit."
JAZZ FUNK @ ITS FINEST.. takes me back to a time when artists/producers jammed for the love/fun of just playing.. the money game was no where in the same zero$100,000,000plus range as today.. one thing i can say for sure 70's music/musicians run laps around modern bullshit.. SMOKIN GREEN LIGHT MATERIAL..keep em comin.. A true NYC.. clasSICK..Peace to all the old school cats..Port!!
Her style of singing sounds very Indian, which isn't surprising since she was trained in Indian classical music. I can see why she's considered a pioneer of fusion. While many fusion artists today simply mix Eastern and Western instruments, it was Asha Puthli's voice and singing style that was a fusion between East and West.
seriously. i'm glad people who dig for the sources of samples are led back to the these awesome original songs, but it's not like some hip-hop producer out there is lending legitimacy to these tracks. if anything it's the other way around.
After playing on Donna Summer's "Love to love you baby", this album of Asha, I produced and played bass on. It was a long time ago I was like 23 years old. True the kids are so involved with electronics nowadays that they don't realize it how great it is to play an instrument. It was actually a good thing that we didn't have computers back then :-)
@@daveking-sandbox9263 damn yo this that bass line is mad funky. Has such a blaxploitation 70’s movie vibe to it. Soon as I heard the groove at the beginning it hyped me up to learn it on my bass. I’ll have a go at it eventually, but thank you and Asha for such a timeless classic!
It has been sampled by Sean Combs 2 times, and the 2nd time was after he lost an infringement suit when he produced for Biggie's movie, and the first time was when they released an album which sampled this song. (she was my neighbor at one time)
@djjfresco D-Dot produced "The World Is Filled" with Puffy. Even if Puffy wasn't pushing the buttons on the sampler it doesn't mean he was not overseeing and voicing how the track should SOUND. A music producer doesn't just push buttons. He says what fits and what doesn't. You take back what you said about Puff. He's the guy who ushered in many great artists like Mary J Blige, Craig Mack, Biggie, Usher, LOX, etc. He is more important than Kanye West.
groovy....i already love kate bush..so this sounds great 2 me....listen 2 the moog,or is it arp synth...a little funky as well...real sweet! she `s kinda sweet 2..
djjfresco - this track, like many electro and jazz-funk breaks were used in the early days of hip hop, and just like the James Brown breaks have become incorporated into collective sampling database. So many artists have used this break, or interpolations of it over the past 30yrs for tracks, remixes, mixtapes, compilations etc.
@svendiamond for example: BIGs RTD album Puff only produced 6 of 19 tracks (& the intro) sampled the following: James Brown, Curtis Mayfield, Snoop, Dre, Jodeci, George McRae, David Porter, Isley Bros. The tracks he produced were the poppy, rnb type tracks (Juicy, One more chance, who shot ya the exception, the interludes) And Juicy was Pete but went uncredited for. The rest were done by mostly Easy Moe Bee, & Premo, Kay Gee, & fabian Hamilton. They sampled breaks mostly from within hip hop
@brew7272 The people who care are people for whom sampling is a major component of their music genres & culture(b4 the greedy copyright lawyers effed it all up). When mainstream audiences & genres weren't giving access to certain types of music/artists, sampling was a way to pay homage to the old while creating new material. When used authentically it indicates the study a producer may have undertaken to produce a sound, both familiar & original simultaneously. This was dope b4 samples tho...
@svendiamond Ok think you've misunderstood. 1st of all the "Juicy" break (for which Pete did a remix), was produced by Puff for BIG's RTD album, but the original comes from a soul/funk group called Mtume (James Mtume led them). The song was called 'juicy fruit' (look it up on here). Puff didn't lift it from younger producers, he sampled it from the original creators. No problem so far. By the time you get to Mase though, Puff was just throwing in old samples cuz it sold records is my point.
@LaLaGrunge Before you start waxing lyrical about Puffy bringing Mary J Blige through..... remember that he was just the producer. In his early days Puff had quite the ear for old breaks and samples (see BIG's debut) but the person (besides Mary) that should really take the credit for 'What's the 411' was Kenny Greene from Intro, who wrote most of the songs and harmonic arrangements. Oh for you youngsters, K.Greene was in a New Jack Swing group called Intro. Puff just marketed her well.
@JayGriffinblaze I still don't understand what you're trying to say about Puffy... he made some dope tracks. Just cuz he sampled "the easy way" by just looping and didn't really chop the shit up, that doesn't mean he "doesn't know anything about good music"
After playing on Donna Summer's "Love to love you baby", on this album by Asha, I produced and played the bass (I compose the song as well :-)). It was a long time ago I was like 23 years old. True the kids are so involved with electronics nowadays that they don't realize it how great it is to really play an instrument. It was actually a good thing that we didn't have computers back then :-)
lol I agree, but those of us who were around and know the originals or care to look at the credits on albums to see where the interpolations, riffs and samples come from know. It's only the mindless youngers and pop fans that don't.. but they don't care about where the music comes from since they follow trends.
@svendiamond "We're all doing it". Hmm. I don't think u can compare the sampling methods of Puffy's time (and remaining still amongst REAL Hip Hop/related genre producers) with those of today as the same. It was never cool to resample a sample and do nothing with it. The onus was & is on the producer to DEVELOP the sample into original material, so that listeners can make a familiar nod to what has gone before AND feel the new. The purpose was never to blatantly make money off others' work.
I wouldn't say puffy stole it. Some dope producer probably gave him the beat, and he just put his name on the record as executive producer. Puffy can't possibly know anything about good music

Reminds me of Minnie Riperton. Been looking for this track for a long while as I lost it. I'm happy again, thanks.

Asha Should have stayed in Europe and became the STAR she deserves to be.
This is a good bass line. Really Chills you out. Great stuff.
It has been sampled by Sean Combs 2 times, and the 2nd time was after he lost an infringement suit when he produced for Biggie's movie, and the first time was when they released an album which sampled this song. (she was my neighbor at one time)

this indian girl is a super queen!
Really love this. Great fusion chill out music.

Even from this one tune, Asha should be a superstar. Such spacey and weird disco. Love it. Love her voice.
Sooooooo great.
Asha will be back end of the Summer with a NEW Album. Watch out!

I'd repeat that end section for at least 3 minutes, funky as hell.

Make it hot!. Biggie sampled this in the world is filled. These albums have been reissued but first time i saw them i didnt know who she was.
this is hella smooth
I met this talented lady in Munich Germany in Ralph Siegel studio.
beautiful space disco 70s
what a masterpiece! find of the day
Sounds good! People who like this should also check Minnie Riperton, also from the 70's

While many fusion artists today simply mix Eastern and Western instruments, it was Asha Puthli's voice and singing style that was a fusion between East and West.
absolutely agree. fusion doesn't work most of the time. it's a patchwork, not poetry. tracks such as this one are truly fusion.
She's Indian...
This song was used in Colours 02 - The Blue One. For those curious.
Thanks!
this is wow.. SO good
seriously. i'm glad people who dig for the sources of samples are led back to the these awesome original songs, but it's not like some hip-hop producer out there is lending legitimacy to these tracks. if anything it's the other way around.
Bumpin' ass bassline. Music from the 70's had serious bottom to it. Nobody even play nowadays...

@@Mar.Escobar24 we recorded it in the 70s that’s probably why it sounds like the 70s :-)

clearwavepro100 she got some money from it...she has done soundtracks and even has an oscar. Heard she just down to earth nowadays.
clearwavepro100 were you the one who put that comment on soul strut?
Whoa. I remember that. Must've been about 10 years ago or so. Hope she got A LOT of money from it since she's the one with the actual creativity here.
michael carpenter she did.
Thank you Terry Peters.
Killer tune....1luv 😎

You god damn producers let me sample something for once 😔
puffy stole that shit!!! lol
BASSBASSBASSBASSBASS
biggie line not jay
lol I agree, but those of us who were around and know the originals or care to look at the credits on albums to see where the interpolations, riffs and samples come from know. It's only the mindless youngers and pop fans that don't.. but they don't care about where the music comes from since they follow trends.
@brew7272 biggie > but thats just imo i see ur point as well

erm...Jay used them for 'Give it to me'. Soz I assumed maybe you weren't aware that Jay jacked them too.
Why are you quoting Jay Z lyrics?
Much sampled this is!!! and it's Electro Funk, was just marketed as New Age whatever
I wouldn't say puffy stole it. Some dope producer probably gave him the beat, and he just put his name on the record as executive producer. Puffy can't possibly know anything about good music
SSSSpppppppppppaceeeeee
