All these years and this song still S L A P S

I remember they aired this on toonami a long time ago, back when cartoonnetwork was cool.

[@ordmass1495]

I agree with you. 2000-2015 golden years of cartoon network

[@hex1233]

@@ordmass1495 I thought Toonami was Adult Swim. Also, 2005-early 2010 Cartoon Network was mostly trash.

[@ordmass1495]

@@hex1233 not that I remember, I mean, cool cartoons where gone but, there it arrived more cartoons that where also cool. Last cool cartoons of cartoon network in 2018 where adventure time and regular show (till "the exit B12" or something like that)

[@johnsimon8457]

WOAH. That's like late80's early 90's MTV level of Avant-Garde

[@TrulyBrokenFan]

Yesterday while driving on a curvy road listening to music, this song appeared out of nowhere. I have been listening to it back in 2004 when I was 9 years old and since then I have been wondering what it's name was... As the track started, I got goose bumps and hit the pedal to the metal. SO AWESOME!!

[@emilyelenaelson]

Same thing happened to me on the road in 2014 Arizona, when me and my spouse were driving in the middle of the night at an incredible speed listening to the Tron soundtrack.

I still have the NinjaTune DVD(think it was called Zen TV) somewhere with this one, was in awe of this track and vid back then, and still am now. Sounds as futuristic now as it did back in 2002.

Definitely Zen TV, found a brand new copy for 3$ recently. Damn Ninja Tune had some of the best music videos in their roster

[@nitrobunny2]

this is fucking awesome. i've seen a lot of people hate on amon tobin for his sampling but i think it's still genius work

[@DruneMusic]

steve foster I never understand those complaints because in mostly every track he has used samples in, the samples are modified into something completely different. or at least combined in unique ways

[@audeon_visual]

I've never heard of anyone criticizing his sampling prowess. He's an undeniable originator and all around badass in the production arena.

[@yungmentalproblems]

@@audeon_visual yh me neither lol

[@nameismetatoo4591]

I think some of those people might have enjoyed his earlier work and tapped out after it started getting too experimental for them. Ngl, there was a time in my life where I would have heard this and immediately turned it off. Now Amon Tobin is one of my all time favorites.

[@ethanb8983]

I feel like there's lyrics, but they're just too digitized to recognize. They may also not be in English. Dunno. You can heal little fragments of sentences every once in a while. Sounds like it's talking about a different person, not the singer. I also hear lots of metaphor. Maybe I'm just crazy.

[@tesseractive4567]

I think the lyrics are sliced up by syllable and mixed around

[@pentexsucks43]

@@tesseractive4567 exactly that, in Tobins live sets, he uses the original, non pitched versions of the vocals off this song, and you can make out actual words at some points. So it's definitely just a vocal track sliced and pitched up to hell and back
