Unkle Ho - Grace of the Guru
ethnic cries + beat + plodding horns + hair metal guitar = grace of the guru. ‘unlikely’ is one of the best things that a song can be, in my humble opinion. there is too much music around for you not to be trying to take risks - its just too easy these days, the obvious ingredients are always readily at hand, you can stick to the recipe and bake a cake that tastes like everyone else’s cake. its not like i think everyone should be trying to reinvent the wheel with every single track that they produce, and i certainly don’t think that what i’m doing is, you know, groundbreaking or whatever, but why would you bother treading the same path as everyone else when its really not that hard to take risks and be a little bit ‘unlikely’. this is a shameless rant. unkle ho is a member of the herd and also put out a solo album on the elefant traks label last year - on his website you can also download the track ‘eureka’. note to self: i’ve got to stop watching cooking shows.
