what is this, chopped and screwed or something?

nah. it's just an ill track - slow haunting violin, really hypnotic snare drums - really stays in your head. sort of like avant-garde underground shit.

i have some of their chopped and screwed stuff - its excellent. im trying to find more examples of good chopped and screwed.

Chop Shop are okay - they do the official Jive albums (UGK, Mystikal etc).

Check out the Rap-A-Lot chopped & screwed set - can't remember the name but it starts with Scarface, then into 'Still Tippin' (but the original version) then this great song by Dawg called 'Get That Money'. It's one of the sets that really works - tons of phasing on the vocals etc.

Weird that you are just hearing this track, this was the spring-summer jam in Texas last year.

I think it just got a national release or something. There are like umpteen versions.

Yeah make sure you listen to the original version w/ the different beat and the chamillionaire verse.

yeah Still Tippin's been getting a lot more national spins since Swishahouse signed the deal with Warner a couple months ago. I get the feeling they'll probably suck at making mainstream hits like Flip though, and even if they do sell some records all the rap nerd hype around them will disappear.

the lane has been cleared, Choppaholix comin' through

Al, I sort of agree but I think there's no way that one of them won't be able to pull it off.
