Nothing New

What this episode covers

If you're a sampling producer, this kind of thing happens inevitably, just hopefully not very often. Sometime back around 2010 I put together this basic musical outline for a song, for TYPE 4 vocalist Tommy O'Deed to write to. I even came up with a sing-song chorus about "nothing". The song never materialized, but thanks to one of my favorite rap groups Atmosphere, we can now all hear something like what that might have sounded like, in their song "Dotted Lines" (https://soundcloud.com/atmosphere-6/dotted-lines). Y'know, if we'd ever finished writing the song, or recorded the song, or for that matter if we were as good as Atmosphere, which is of course a matter of opinion. I have no idea whether they actually sampled the same source as I did, or merely replayed some live guitar in the same style, but I think even Ed Sheeran would recognize there's an undeniable similarity. As for what that possibly shared sample source is? Go fish.
