Music Tuesday #036: Backdrop music
Although I have tried I can't get into hip hop and the likes. For some reason it doesn't speak to me. I guess that's because I grew up in a privileged environment which is not conducive to relate to such music. In the 90s you had the crossover trend of mixing music styles and then I very much liked Urban Dance Squad, Rage Against the Machine, Senser. Tricky's Maxinquaye was on my playlist for a short time.
Today I am recovering from a 10 hour jetlag and this fits my mood. At first I was about to skip through this, but then the voice kicked in and that got me hooked. Makes me think about the pop up summer bars we see every year in the neighborhood. This week's tune would work well on a warm summer evening while lounging together with friends and watching the sun go down behind the backdrop of the city I live in.
Well done Mister T.
