This is... kinda new!

Hey folks!

It....is.... TIME. Yes, as I said I want to widen out the variety of the songs presented here, I thought I really need some decent Hip-Hop in here ;-). Now, I don't want to post a random SnoopDog-, Dr. Dre-, Grandmaster Flash-, 2pac- or Notorious B.I.G.-song that everyone is likely to know already!
And that's harder than it sounds, because my knowledge of HipHop is rather low.
BUT my superior taste in everything ;-) led me some day to Del Tha Funkee Homosapien (short: Del). The first album I got to know is from his project Deltron 3030, which is self-titled and sole as there are no further albums. I noticed Dels' style was kind of oldschool so I got interested. While listening, it remembered me of music my brother used to hear in the 90's. Of course there are differences in Deltron 3030, but nevertheless I think it's pretty close to oldschool, especially if you don't look at the production and lyrics.
So I dug deeper just to find some of Dels' earliest works. What I like about it is the simplicity that lies within the lyrics. It was taken from life and put into a song made by someone totally, I'd say, from next door. It is something probably everybody already has experienced. There's a good chance Del himself had a situation like this just the day before he had the idea for this track. I like it because I can identify myself with that. Not like so many songs we are made to hear nowadays.
The music itself is simply cool and funky, the whole track very funny.
From here on I'd say you better listen yourself at the link down here. The youtube-video is for those who want to take a look at Deltron 3030.

Stay tuned!
