[superproducers]

i had to post this article from the September Wired (11.10) about Superproducers.. the new breed of producers who are becoming superstars in their own right, who have the ability to make, break, or remake - as in the case of justin timberlake with the ever-superb Neptunes - artistes.

also worth checking from the same issue - a piece on the Iranian twins, Ladan & Lalleh.

they also make retro cool again, as with my current fave track by the equal-parts bootlegger and producer extrodinaire, Richard X:

Richard X ft Deborah Evans-Strickland - Walk On By
(cover of the Carpenters' Walk on By)

If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by

Make believe
that you don't see the tears
Just let me grieve
in private 'cause each time I see you
I break down and cry
And walk on by (don't stop)
And walk on by (don't stop)
And walk on by

I just can't get over losing you
And so if I seem broken and blue
Walk on by, walk on by

Foolish pride
Is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
When you said goodbye
Walk on by
and walk on by
and walk by (don't stop)

Walk on by, walk on by
Foolish pride
Is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
When you said goodbye
Walk on by (don't stop)
and walk on by (don't stop)
and walk by (don't stop)
