Going One Above Todays Current Wild Wild West Landscape Of Digital Sampling And Officially Licensing A Legendary 60s-era Song Thats Made Its Rounds In The Golden Era Of Sample Based Hip-hop. Akshin Alizadeh, The Man From Azerbaijan, Is The Lucky One Tapped From The Label’s Roster To Remix Marlena Shaws Woman Of The Ghetto. The Producers Strong Funk And Nu-jazz Influences, As Well As His Ability To Combine Funky Grooves With Punchy Hip-hop Beats, Are On Full Display Once Again. Rightfully Dramatic Orchestral Strings Give Way To Bluesy Rhythmic Wah-wah Guitar Plucking, Slightly Cabaret-ish Piano, Pitch Bending Keys, And A Totally Sultry Sax. The Percussion Sounds Like Signature Alizadeh With A Flickering Hat Pattern, Well Placed Snare Rolls, And Punchy Interplay With The Kick. For The Djs Needing To Spice Things Up, An Instrumental Is Included.
