Wax Box Music

Full Instrumental piece from the group Lorem Ipsum. Familiar to "The Wire" fans as the background music playing in Season 1 when Avon Barksdale visits the Pit to see his nephew D'Angelo.

VAswang you rock for getting this, where did you find it?

[VAswang]

I always liked this song when I first heard it on "The Wire". I never even knew the name of the song or who did it until somebody mentioned it in the comments for one of the "Avon visits the Pit" YouTube vids. After that, I just searched around on the internet until I found it. If you want it, I can send you a download link. Just PM me.

[VAswang]

Yep, it was you!

Yeah! Watched Avon, Stinkum, and String roll into the Pit last night, so glad I was able to find the soundtrack.

Who? Who down thumbed this video? I demand to know!!!!

The bass in this tune is eerie, it's Stringer and Avon to a tee. Slow mo and this tune made that scene amazing.

[Clownface125]

This song is perfect to the scene wich its been played to on the show

For anyone who wants info on the project Lorem Ipsum- they are a collection of artists from the Baltimore-based experimental electronic Cytoplastik label. The artists that contributed to this track are still based in Baltimore and playing shows together.

@philaowens81 The consequences you've just described match the diagnoses for the conditions 'Eargasm' and 'Eyegasm' .......Should these symptoms disperse, you should probably refrain from any TV talent shows or late night movies until they reappear.
