Diplo || Watch

Diplo spun this summery track during his DJ set at the picnic, chopping up and dropping beats all over the A Tribe Called Quest jam that reworks organist Ronnie Foster’s 1972 “Mystic Brew”, and again making something new. The loping bass line is still there, while vocal snippets are cut off mid-word, looped, and doused in reverb, amid bursts of subwoofer-busting rhythms. The catch phrase “I like ‘em brown, yellow, Puerto Rican, or Haitian” is still here, too. Giving “Brew Barrymore” most of its lazy-afternoon wooziness, though, is Foster’s organ, rippling across the track now and then before the whole thing eventually settles into a thumping drum-machine break. “I always loved the organ solos on the Ronnie Foster track man,” Diplo writes. – Pitchfork
