Here is a perfect example of Massive Attack genius with Five Man Army :
- the first part of the file is from Al Green (I’m Glad You’re Mine)
- the second one from Lewin Bones Lock (Five Man Army Dub)
- mix the drums of Al Green with the bass line of Lewin Bones Lock
- add the deep voice of DaddyG
- invite Tricky to sing, and Horace Andy to play with his legendary voice
- here we are, you get Five Man Army (the third part), a great hit of Massive’s Blue Lines album :)
The result of this Massive Attack sampling work is really amazing, the atmosphere is radically different. To learn more on Massive Attack inspirations, listen to the “Protected: Massive Samples” compilation.
