"[...] Madlib's take on One Beer" i mean, Madlib was the og producer of the song, that's kind of a weird phrasing (sorry, Pitchfork's wording of that bothered me lol)
yeah I'm pretty sure that's the original song they made for Madvillainy and DOOM remade it for Food later
New merch drop for the 25th anniversary of Operation: Doomsday. Managed to bag the cassette, which I missed with the MM..FOOD drop.
I bought the last reissue they did and it got me thinking about the metal fingers boxset I have and it's apparently going for $473.68
Beatwise, no, but the vocals have more energy and the sequencing is obviously different. It's worth the listen even if it's not super different from the album proper.
Maybe a line here or there, nothing super noticable though. Mostly vocal delivery, mixing and sequencing.
There are a few differences in the beats. They’re not massive, but there are little bits here and there that throw you when you’re so used to the album version. I’ve noticed some of the non musical samples seem to be on different tracks too. It’s good to listen to it just to see the journey from demos to the final product.
