Editor's review
A Tribe Called Quest's "Midnight Marauders" was one of the seminal albums in '90s East Coast hip-hop, a chillfest of rolling rhythms and warm sonic patching. Now Houston's The Are revives it from inside, scooping the pith from the famed samples and stuffing it back into pillowy new cuts.
Biography
Manipulated Marauders project
I just finished arranging a project I called "Manipulated Marauders". I started this project early last year. I was in NY and heard a tribe joint from the Midnight Marauders album. I thought to myself it would be dope to take all the original Midnight Marauder samples and re-work them to make new joints. At first, it was crazy because all the tribe songs are so distinct that no matter what i did to the break, they all still sounded the same. Because of this, I was'nt getting it done as quick as I wanted. After chopping a few tracks, I realized it would be even better to go deeper into the sample they used and pull out different parts to use. It came out cool because now you hear the tracks in a different way but it's still connected and "Manipulated"
