Mid Day Blues
















This song went through several transformations before ending up on the Time-Space Continuum album. First came the beautiful beat created by Jake Lamada which had crisp SP-1200 drums with a mellow guitar and vibe sample pouring right over it. You can hear Optiskept (now known as Sinima Beats) flowing over this one on the solo tip and then Kwote and Cise join him on the next take.

Next Mysterio came through with his rendition of the song with an equally melodic soundscape featuring vocal samples from Robert Plant and Stevie Wonder. Horns and keys lace the thumping drum track set over a deep bassline as the three emcees bring the dope concept to fruition once again.

Finally the track was remixed by a producer that Kwote connected with in Germany. This track keeps the mellow mood with an eighties type twist.

NOTABLE QUOTES:
"The pain won't cease/ You left as a part of me/ As you departed me/ I'm left incomplete/ Wholeheartedly/ I couldn't tell if you were using me or choosing me/ Either way you were abusing me" - Optiskept

"While my heart cause tremors on earth/ The confused look and stare/ Because they're not aware/ Of the love being expressed/ Place your hand on my chest/ Release some stress/ Have a seat and listen to the beat/ A mirror image of you - which looks so sweet/ My heart was empty - you made me complete" - Kwote

"I'm hype/ You got me high/ I'm falling quick like airplane flights/ And crash at your mental - do just about anything to have you/ Cry and die for you - share and laugh with you" - Cise
