Ranked No. 8 in Ambient
A Rickie Lee Jones interview, a Steve Reich sample and a house beat. Ambient house arrives fully formed, funny, and far cleverer than its reputation suggests.
Picked by The Waxonia Desk — Sounds Like a Single
A sampled interview, a Steve Reich loop and a beat, assembled into something that should not work at all. The line between a remix and a record is nowhere to be found on it.
Picked by The Waxonia Desk — The Hundred
A Rickie Lee Jones interview, a Steve Reich pulse and a Pat Metheny sample, assembled into something oddly moving. Ambient house begins and mostly ends here.
