The Heliocentrics – the London-based collective centered around drummer Malcolm Catto, bassist Jake Ferguson and producer Mike Burnham – first performed with legendary Ethiopian Jazz composer/arranger/pianist/vibraphonist Mulatu Astatke in early 2008. The pairing went so well – Astatke celebrated the band as the Heliocentrics performed the classic songs Astatke recorded for the Ethiopian Amha label in the late 60s and early 70s – that a collaborative recording session became a must. Thus began the landmark sessions in the Heliocentrics’ cavernous studio that resulted in Mulatu Astatke and The Heliocentrics: Inspiration Information 3.
The Score is produced by a variety of producers including each member of the Fugees as well as Diamond D, Salaam Remi and Jerry ‘Wonder’ Duplessis. Although most tracks are built on sampled melodies, live instrumentation and DJing are incorporated into multiple tracks. Wyclef Jean plays the guitar on “Family Business,” while DJ Scribble scratches on “Manifest/Outro”. Still, samples are the predominant production tool on this album. “Fu-Gee-La” incorporates a sample of Teena Marie’s “Ooh La La La,” and it is interpolated in the song’s chorus. “Ready or Not” also contains a sample that is interpolated, “Ready or Not (Here I Come)” by The Delfonics.
All the original samples Dr. Dre used for his classic solo debut The Chronic.

Breakdancing involves the elements of toprock, downrock, freezes, and power moves. A breakdancer, breaker, b-boy or b-girl refers to a person who practices breakdancing.

The Grey Album is a mashup album by Danger Mouse, released in 2004. It uses an a cappella version of rapper Jay-Z’s The Black Album and couples it with instrumentals created from a multitude of unauthorized samples from The Beatles’ LP The Beatles (more commonly known as The White Album). The Grey Album gained notoriety due to the response by EMI in attempting to halt its distribution.

Using a turntable, mixer and computer to create the songs, this gifted DJ has conjured an homage to what is possible. Varied, uplifting and unexpected, rooted in hip-hop but leaping into new sonic territory, The Audience’s Listening offers musical magic created by the alchemist known as Cut Chemist.
