Tall Black Guy - Up In The Sky (Too High ReEdit)
via http://soundcloud.com/tallblackguyproductions/up-in-the-sky-too-high-reedit:
Stevie Wonder’s “Too High” joint is so sick to me. I really haven’t heard anybody outside of Madlib flip it for the Alkaholiks-“All Night” joint, which was sick! I’ve always wanted to sample it and turn it into somthing else funky, so I took a few days on tryin different ideas to make a whole new melodie out of Stevie playing the Fender Rhodes. Here’s my re-edit of Stevie Wonders-“Too High” off the Innervisions album. Hope You Enjoy!!!

Presented by BamaLoveSoul.com…
“One of the only ways to have escaped hearing of producer Tall Black Guy in 2011 is to be hidden under a massive pile of rocks! This talented producer has spent his time releasing countless original compositions and remixes that have caught the ear of numerous tastemakers including UK’s chief selector, Gilles Peterson. In September his remix of Fela Kuti’s Water No Get Enemy appeared on Peterson’s acclaimed Brownswood Bubblers compilation, which helped to truly spread his name to the far corners of the Earth.
To make sure the cave dwellers get up to speed, Tall Black Guy has decided to release some of his earlier works, remixes and lesser known tracks mixed by DJ Rahdu!”
