One of the more creative aspects of music is reinvention. A skilled artisan can take something old, an eight bar loop, and turn it into something new to be loved by a different audience. The last part of that statement is an interesting one. How many times have we heard a song and went "What a great sample. Who is that?" Only, the answer is usually a shoulder shrug and an "I don't know." That's a shame. Here at THE MUSIQUARIUM, we're trying to bridge that gap. So every week, I'm going to highlight a few old school artists whose music yo've probably heard time and time again, but just couldn't put a name to the beat. Hope you enjoy.
