Steer Clear: Dizzee Rascal Meets The Hold Steady…

Bringing Some Beats In

“Steer Clear” by Kid Goliath

…In the above song. In the text above is the link to my IMEEM page with the song on it. I made this beat about a month or so ago, and I listened to it today and thought, “That’s not as bad as the first time I listened to it,” so I decided to post it. “Steer Clear” samples bangin’ drums from Dizzee Rascal’s “Fix Up, Look Sharp” and some of the chunky, no-frills guitar from The Hold Steady’s “Stevie Nix.” The mix on it is pretty bad, and it’s without its flourishes.  But, it’s really fun to rap over. Once a vocal track is laid down, the structure will be tinkered with more to give it a fresh, finite product, rather than the straight-forward pattern that it’s in right now.

So, take a listen. If you’re deaf, listen to the braille version. Or, just watch the sine waves and try to guess what’s going on.
