Do you know who the Windrider is? Don't waste your time trying to Google it -- you're better off going to your local comic shop and asking the person behind the counter.

This beat was a bit of an experiment for me. I utilized two drastically different sections of the same sample and turned out a combination that communicates a whole other attitude than the original.

The product is moody, powerful, and even elegant at times. A fine tribute to my adored Windrider, if you ask me.
