1993 to 2007 - The Are’s Manipulated Marauders
A Tribe Called Quest’s ‘Midnight Maruaders’, released November 1993 is without doubt one of the genre’s best loved albums, a 90s classic which broke new ground in terms of production techniques, sample material and lyrical content. As a well loved album it has, probably more so than almost any other album, seen its fair share of unofficial remixes and reworks. One of our favourites is from Houston beat maker The Are. You can listen to (and buy) the ‘Producers I Know’ affiliate’s ‘Manipulated Marauders’ beat tape via bandcamp here.
