This is not my music, nor is it new. But would like to share it anyway. English producer/dj Bullion made this bootleg album in ’07 and in one swift move not only skillfully pays tribute to J Dilla‘s sampling collage masterpiece Donuts but does so while cutting up an album from an ENTIRELY different galaxy – harmonic vocal pop classic Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys (1966). Real clever and funky. Matter of fact with all the Dilla inspired producers out there, I haven’t heard somebody come as close to the man himself as Bullion on this project.
For all open-minded music lovers and definitely for the beatheads and Jay Dee/Dilla fans (check J chilling with the B(each) Boys on the cover..)

Don’t want upset that other Jay of course, but I messed around with the one called Ms. Knowles.. (whatsup Phife?)
She recently sang to, and danced up quite a sexy sweat for me in Shanghai while I provided some rhythmic motion and soulful stimulation, courtesy of my man DJ Hi-Tek & Reflection Eternal (and can’t forget U-Roy, whose track Tom Drunk was sampled by Hi-Tek).
