Man, when that singer starts doin his thing for the first time + RJD2 track = Makes me feel so blue and eternal at the same time!!! This makes me go nuts! Luv it!!!
Prefuse 73, daudeldus, flying lotus, fourtet, dj shadow and rjd2. Where would I be without these great groups? My life wouldn't be the same for sure. Thank you for the uplaod.
Yeah man, one of my favourite RJ tracks ever. Samples are: Black Frost by Grover Washington Jr (Sax part). Silent Running Theme by David Matthews, from the film Silent Running (main hook). Memories Are Here To Stay by The Intruders (vocal). Don't know about the descending guitar part though.....that's at least 4 different records for one track. RJ is a fuckin god on the MPC!
I've owned this album for over 10 years and played it through well over 100 times.. how have I not heard this before!!! fucking car skips over it apparently.. Cool find!
You bought the later release which removed the hidden track. He did't have the rights to publish the track, but of course I'm glad he did. Of of my fave songs ever.
@cristofolon Sampling, much like what RJD2 does, involves recontextualising several pieces of music, and combining them to create a totally new song. The samples may be from numerous artists, but when "published", the new song is under RJ's name. The credit goes to him as the recording artist. A remix can take an existing, modern song, and re-work elements to create either a house or dubstep remix, for example. The credit goes to the original recording artist, but with an "RJD2 remix" credit.
I released it originally on my record label - Battersea Park Music - I still have vinyl 12"s available, pressed in the UK - PM me if anyone is interested in purchasing a copy!
Hey AfexNine.....Listened to my Deadringer album start to finish, and also checked out 'work' still havent found it!!! Thanks anyway man, I'll have to get a copy another way.
@coflip Well, I guess samples are those little snippets of music that producers lift from another artist's body of work, which is then manipulated, sequenced into a particular order, and sometimes combined with other samples to create a new piece of music. Often, samples are taken out of context completely, so a piece of progressive rock or soul is turned into hip hop or drum and bass, for example.
Listening to this makes me gutted that this was cut from later pressings. :/ (due to legal issues with the samples, btw) I just bought the album on Amazon and it's not on.
If this was on an album, then RJD2 holds a copyright over the sound recording itself, you would need to obtain a license to use this track in such a fashion. The terms and cost of said license can vary, and are determined by the owner of the copyright.
You are gone. I'm so all alone. Here's what's left of my happy home. "She'll be back" That's what i said As i stare at the ceiling. 'Cause i need you baby.
If I would like to write a rap, based on this awesome tune, and record it together with it - how would it work out legally? Any one? peace love n ice cream
mm. I understand. according to a lawer i know, music law sais that its okey to "steal" a part of a melody or a whole beat.. as long as you have refered it to the creating artist (RJD2). Im aware of the fact that this isnt a beat. its a track. but if I reccord it with a rap, does it "become" a beat then? legally i meen? and can I there for use it? ps. sorry for my bad spelling, im swedish, stupid and fucked up cause of a bad hang over.. cliché, huh? ds.
are you talking about sampling? because I'm pretty sure you still need legal consent in order to use a part of it.. mind you, i could be wrong.. but I wouldn't record over this and then expect RJD2 not to care.. which is why I advised you to ask him.. good luck, hope you figure it out..

I remember playing this shit for my girl. Years later, she's still my girl haha. The power of RJD2
Best song on this AMAZING album.......Such and inspiration for an aspiring producer with a hefty library about to be DROPPED on the world!!!

The original pressing of this album included this as the hidden track after "Work". Absolute gem.
this is walking home through the city in the rain. so good.

one of my favourites, thanks
@Tableturn descending guitar is "Wish I Could Talk to You" by The Sylvers
I used to put this song on repeat, listen to it a few times and just chill the fuck out....sometimes I'd freestyle over it. RJ is the fuckin man.

One of my favorite on Deadringer
@Tableturn final sample: The Sylvers - wish that I could talk to you!

best track by rj
The sitar at the end is from The Sylvers I believe
extraordinary!!
That Beat is my definition of chill. . .
omg i have this song....its so beautiful
Rjd2 and MF Doom need to make an Album together cause it would be soooooo epic
Man this comment makes me kinda sad. Rest in power Doom
@@Davitzko thinking same yhing
Just do a search for Wikipedia's page on Deadringer, RJ's first album. It lists most of the samples that were used. Or check out Who Sampled
great!
oh my, so good...
Still a banger
Yes

Nice Breakdown
Luv it!!

@cristofolon Sample takes a snippet sample. Remix, is a remix of the entire track. It's all in the name, man
Peace and love
4:55-5:59 is like walking on the moon
garuanteeed mate
people are arguing about sampling, but he released this as a remix,
It's beautiful ;_;
cause I need you babe , o how I miss you babe
Yeah for sure ... sick song to listen to when things arent going well with your girl
The Sylvers - Wish That I Could Talk To You
@BKenderen Thanks man. I do what I can if people are genuine. Let's face it though - everyone enjoys trolling from time to time!
Yess YESS YESSS!!!!!
The last part punches me in the stomach.
he played in hollywood and i didn't know about it? DAMNIT!
I love this song, sooooo amazing. Anyone know who the vocals are?
sick song
you didn't know about the long-spanning prefuse dynasty?
i just mistyped it
You are gone.
I'm so all alone.
Here's what's left of my happy home.
"She'll be back"
That's what i said
As i stare at the ceiling.
'Cause i need you baby.
dedicate dis to my lost luv.... oh well....
@rickburna This is the kinda music that makes me want to sit on my balcony of my 8th floor apartment, smoke a joint, and just be Zen.
@Tableturn hey, im new to this stuff xP i love RJD2 and blockhead tho
@DanielAltmann
Promoe-KKampaign could be the song u'r lookin for
If I would like to write a rap, based on this awesome tune, and record it together with it - how would it work out legally?
Any one?
peace love n ice cream
Damn it! I have a newer copy of Deadringer and, of course, this exceptional track is nowhere to be found.
A secret song? I like secrets.
wonderful..
become ghoosebumps
I need to know 2 things....What album is this track from? And where can I get it if its not from an album! Please help!
Does anyone know who is singing on this track??
Just put this track on a new mix. so ill!
😘
closest thing i can think of is the Aesop Rock/MF Doom collab produced by Prefuse 73. Check it out.
@Tableturn what are samples?
@LemonZeppelin I may be able to help you. Lemme know
At 4:55 that’s the magic dust
the version i have is much shorter ?
@cdnbc250 Same here but with a cigarette
The only thing I don't like is the outro.
I think it doesn't fit with the song's mood.
But that sax is good.
Stone throws away from a fist left in change
stepped left now im writing
ate grits the shits simple pie man
@coflip Is that a serious question?
i really like the beat....with the vocals it gets a little bit too kitchy for my taste.
but great track anyway: 5*
oups! I thought you meant rjd2
Check out the Remix to this with vocals: RJD2 feat. BigWho - REMinisce of What's Left ruclips.net/video/b4P5WgtYtE0/видео.html
It's ok but the other songs is not that great i think..
but this one is pretty good :)
People who like this song should check out Prefuse 72.
sour grapes prefuse 73 just looked them up cause you suggested it Sounds Awsome thanks!
This used to make wana skate like p-rod

Usually im okay when GF goes out for a few hours
funny...
Cos I need you baby
are you talking about sampling? because I'm pretty sure you still need legal consent in order to use a part of it..
mind you, i could be wrong.. but I wouldn't record over this and then expect RJD2 not to care.. which is why I advised you to ask him..
good luck, hope you figure it out..
this song aint on dead ringer
You can do anything you want as long as you don't go public with it. Hell, go rob a bank. Just don't go public with it.
yo can only cop 12 bars off a beat without permission...thats the rule, or just chop it up, like hiphop producers do
i dont think u need his permission if you just use the song for yourself and dont go public with it.
