Bob James – Nautilus

27Oct08

This has to be one of my favourite cuts ever. Seriously, I don’t know what drugs Bob James was on when he came up with this track, but they must have been excellent. I am definitely a fan of his work in general, but he never had a track before or after that even came close to this calibur. I recently came across this article on the track, and its use as a sample throughout hip hop. Pretty dope. Just thought I would come through and pass along a few of my favourite cuts in shitty, lo-fi, youtube form.

There’s so many uses, pick your favourite, and let us know!
