I can really respect the fact that Aesop produced his entire album, but I really feel like this video really brings light to the fact that the album might have suffered due to the self-production. Most of the beats on the album sound more-or-less the same, whereas this version really gives the song more character. Hopefully we'll see new remixes in the future.

I think it just gives it a different character. Who knows, if you heard this version first, and then the original, you might think something completely different. I don't think this takes anything away from Aesop's standing as a dope producer. Loved his work on Felt 3, but I also love several remixes. I think what it speaks more to is the interestingness of his vocals. You could do just about anything behind it and it would sound ok. Maybe that's why there are so many Aesop remixes out there.

Well said, I find it hard to find any real faults with Skelethon. I'd say it's probably one of his best yet and I see him getting even better with the next album. This remix is just a different sound totally, but still not as good as the original.

If Aesop Rock Joined Darktime Sunshine, that would be the best trio since De la Soul, Slum VIllage, Dilated Peoples, etc.

From Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five to Rhymesayers ... Gotta love EVOLUTION!

Woah woah woahold on a minute here. Saying this beat is dope is one thing, but saying the album suffered from self-production is another. He did a great job and the beats sound "the same" because they were supposed to. That's the direction the album was taking. I hope to see new remixes too but dude, if you're gonna take a shot at Aesop, make it a legitimate one!

[BowCleave]

Wow, I totally disagree about your comment on skelethons beats sounding more or less the same. To each their own. I will say skelethon isn't my favorite ace album, but I really like cycles to gehenna, fryerstarter, and gopher guts.

I dig the original more.
