Beats from the Streets – “Verbalize” (play)
I can’t think of a more contemporary form of instrumental music than the digitoid compositions of hip-hop. This track, aptly titled “Verbalize,” is like a poem, that speaks of young hip-hop music in the early 80′s, when Afrika Bambaataa lifted bits from German electronic pioneers Kraftwerk and re-tasked them to his own creative ends. This artistic method became known by its digital name, “sampling,” now ubiquitous in hip-hop and pop music. Check this mp3 from “Hip Hop Instrumentals Volume 2″ on Rize High Records. Bleeping blip-hop bliss.
