Dying to live, living to die...."
Someone here uploaded this awhile back.
I threw it on CD, but could never find the mp3 again.
So I have no idea and would also like to know.
I fuckin love that song.

So whats good with this one?
I got it from here so someone has to know.

^ Seriously, this has been bugging me too. I KNOW I heard this before and most likely have the mp3 on my computer. Hmm Verge, anything else you can remember? Like how many mcs on the cut? I'm drawing a blank here.

I was just listening to an old WBLS Chuck Chillout show and there was a track that I know but can't think who the artist is off the top of my head

the lyrics are "Aint nothing but a party y'all", the beat is kind of hard and the names Jam Master and Cool something get mentioned

Cool C?

One emcee. Kind of a skinny higher pitched voice.
"Its so hard livin, but I'm scared to die,
cause I never been past those clouds in the sky.
Dying to live, living to die.
Crying these tears til my well runs dry."

That's all I can remember. I definitely have it ripped on CD and I definitely
downloaded from here. Or it is possible that it was from that compilation that
ral put together over the summer on his indie cratez blog.
But I'm pretty sure I got it from here over a year ago.

I'm gonna scour the CDs in my truck tonight and if I find it, I'll put the CD
back in the computer and it should be labeled already, I hope. But I
literally have hundreds of ripped CDs from the internet in my truck.
So, I definitely can't promise anything.

the chorus goes "i got the whole world/in my hands/i wanna live lovely with a beautiful wife/and some........" that's all i can remember.and the beat was i really happy sounding beat with some nice strings to it. dude had somewhat of a higher pitched, kinda raspy voice as well.

i've exhausted every other avenue trying to figure this out. i get a real need to hear it now and then.

any help would be good. or just call me a noob.

wallysnaps, I suggest you check at least most of the records on that label.
Mass Vinyl. Almost every record is fuckin dope.
http://www.discogs.com/label/Mass+Vinyl+Recordings

Start off with these three:
MV 1596 Hi-Tech (2) Book Of Life (12") 1996
MV 1597 Various Collectors Edition Vol. 1 (12") 1996
MV 111094 Parallax (9) Don't Mean Jak / Bleeding Hate (12") 1994

If you need help finding them, let me know.
DJ Mike Nice says he found the lost Hi Tech album that never dropped or
leaked, so keep an eye out for that, too.

Wow I havent thought about this dude in years....I may have layin around the crib a tape of me and Tech freestyin back when we were in school. It's proably long gone from my many moves in life though. :(

Verge · Post by **Verge** » Sat Feb 06, 2010 6:17 pm

Paging Ho1ogramz for that second track. Pretty dope.
So many femcees sound the same to me, I can't call it, sorry.

Third one is Roc Marciano. It's from this seemingly impossible to find EP named:
Noose PRoductions EP- Kuku Productions, song title: "The Prophesy"
So great. I know of someone who has the record but hasn't shared it yet.

EDIT: There's also two other pretty good mixes of that song on that record.
Here, check it:

It's a remix to "The Saga Begins", no clue who did it though sorry.

it could be the unreleased Pete Rock Remix

it's not a Pete Rock remix, I'm asking around, so far no one seems to know.

Damn, not Pete Rock huh? It sure sounds like him
(Why don't we call it his and leave it at that?

)

What kills me is that I probably had the info at some point but left it unidentified.

That is not pete. I can't give 100% proof but I can easily tell. Don't come close to pete's style or sound. Pete is not sloppy with his arrangements & his sounds are not that weak, not to say this beat is in any way. Hopefully the true producer will be credited but I'd bet my house on it that this is not a soul brother production.

Yeah, I don't think it's Pete because the drums don't sound like his.
Just my thoughts..

EDIT: Also, I mentioned last night in those youtube comments that the
sample sounds like the same sample that used for a track that the hook
went something like,"..let yo inner light shine, let yo inner mind shine.."
or something like that. Anybody got a clue about that one?
I'm pretty sure I have the sample here, too. Matter fact, I think a few
people sampled that shit.

Another one I'm trying to ID has a chorus that goes:
"Y equals self, I gotta keep on, I gotta be born, and strive to make it, I can't fake it"

The last ID request of the night: A crew maybe called "Absent Minded Clique" on a track maybe called "My Perception" or "My Perspective" that definitely samples Roy Ayers' The Black Five. Around '95 or so.

I'll up them all if need be...

Thanks, aleph! Wow, that Y=Self track is bananas. I've never heard that.
The second cat rhyming definitely has a Rakim vibe, but still great.

Sorry, I have no idea on any of these. The last two sound like straight demo bangers.
The last track, all I know is the sample. Someone else used it and then
that One Be Lo cat used it again years later.
Roy Ayers - The Black Five (you'll also notice the dope Legion Groove
sample in the intro which Large Pro used again a couple years ago)

Yeah Verge, you're probably right about them being demos. Slim to no chance of IDing them. 9 out of 10 x the people who originally played them don't remember either. And I got a few more too.

My mind is saying it's a demo track by Da Noe Doe Network! Doesn't he mentioned "Rock" in the track? Or maybe I am wrong. I do find some simularities though.

What you say?

I am speaking about the "Y = Self" track of course.

aleph · Post by **aleph** » Thu Feb 11, 2010 9:23 pm

From listening to Once Upon A Time, definitely not them.

The first emcee says "Papa Andre" or "Potna Andre" which may refer to his "potna" or himself.
