Hainaults "Japan Inc." was
inspired by an antique recording of Japanese hostesses playing a singing
game with some clinets in a bar. The track was built around this,
and many layers of samples were superimposed on the beat to make a
thick, runaway train of relentlessly pounding house funk, with authentic
Japanese opera percussion, and a dreamy "Float on"
remix, which seduces and hypnotises the listener as it builds and
falls.
This "magpie manipulation", or "Treasure
Trove Tampering" has been well exploited now; Hainault was
one of the earliest exponents of what could be called an "unrestrained
kitchen sink approach". Music |
