I was on the phone with G.O.V. last night talking about how much we crave a new paradigm of thinking because the current standard seem to be so dated, boxed in and uninspiring. Long story short the conversation led to picking favorites, it seems like the second you settle for one, you’ve limited life’s palette and possibly neglected a whole world of endless possibilities and experiences. With that said I’m going to somewhat contradict myself because when it comes to music there’s one album that offers so much it deserves a little favoritism, by more then a hundred million people that is…

After spending a week with a good friend in Nantucket this summer, literally blasting Thriller the entire time, I came to the conclusion that this album was the one, the two, the three, the four… If Thriller was a girl, I’d get down on my knees and propose this minute. Nothing comes close to the feelgood vibe of that album, the sound is universal, the lyrics are real and it was made with so much love, sincerity and care that it’s no secret why an entire world would embrace it the way it has. For those of you just getting into MJ, this all happened long before he passed away. If a girl was Thriller, I probably wouldn’t have so much trouble with the current paradigm.

Well, if you haven’t guess by now this song reminds me of a Quincy Jones production. Idjut apparently shares similar affection for the album because everything from the horn arrangement to the guitar licks on this remix is screaming Quincy inspiration and I love it. Without further ado, here’s a 7 minute retro inspired remix of Baby Can’t Stop, enjoy.
