I'm looking for some spoken word house tunes, any suggestions and recommendations would be great. A few examples of the stuff I mean, I'm struggling to find anything along the same sort of vibe:





Thanks!

Most excellent tunes in here.



Used to belt the bananas out of this. The original is a lot more tribal if that's your sort of thing.

Yeah theres some amazing tunes in this lift. The peace division tune and the strictly rhythm release! Huge.



This track however I think is an utter stunner...definitely fits this spoken word thang

Oh shit, totally forgot about this tune

Not a big fan of his "hip house" releases, weak raps and pianos, this is really great tho, mr fingers bassline, todd terry's funky snares balanced by his monotonous voice. Does he sound like he just smoked himself a nice spliff? I wouldn't know, never tried it myself

I posted the following on this thread http://www.dubstepforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=249341

but here is the detail again

Also check the list posted by thereturn on the same thread!

Plenty to check- there are also several new tracks with spoken vocals that I have recently heard


I compiled this list some time ago after hearing that Don Morris tune in the groove it’s raw, typical Chicago style house, it got me thinking about spoken vocal tracks and I’ve come up with these

The spoken house tracks mainly came out of Chicago and today you can hear poetry over house by artists such as Ursula Rucker, Rainy Payne and Roland Clarke to name 3

Here are some for you to check

The Children - Freedom check the Adonis deep mix -When I first heard Tadow Free (future classic) it reminded me of this one Big up Tadow

The Truth Open our eyes (Marshall Jefferson)

Mike Dunn - Groovin

Mike Dunn - so let it be houze

MDIII - Set me Free (Mike Dunn)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNqE70qvoDU

MDIII Personal Problem (Mike Dunn again!)

The Party Boy -Twilight Zone (this is a Bam Bam production)

Pleasure pump- Fantasize me (Dub)

Master C&J- Face IT- They are unsung house heroes from Chicago

Blake Baxter – when we used to play (note there are a couple of mixes of this) stark raw machine funk

Longer intro –

Maurice – This is acid-

Original mix

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ius0C32U

Alternative mix

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4V42BzcxGI

Maurice (with Hula Lidell Townsell etc) – Feel the mood
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxCkhe_4b2s


Metro - Straphanger- (Nu Groove) one of my all time faves

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viktFsctKAE


Phuture - The Creator

LFO We are back (a nod to the above I think)


LB Bad- Touch Me-

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHNysowfH7I


Ly - Back 2 Zanzibar (Jovonn on production) or Deep End Theme a more recent one. In fact get almost anything by Jovonn!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RwY6kPJPYI


Cassio –Paradise – OK it’s not all spoken but this is such a TUNE

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQxQ9tPIQCc

Adonte Dreams –

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcTCY0qxPuM

Dj Euphonik - We belong to the night

Blaze - My Beat

Blaze - Seasons of Love

Moody Man - Freaky Lil Mama

MR V tracks

KC Flight – Planet E\ Lets Get Jazzy

There are probably tons more…….. and some obvious ones I’ve forgotten or missed off
