@WiteWulf not at computer but if you set up an account on Musicbrainz.org and find the scripts for importing (tampermonkey required) then it becomes a little more straightforward
I have a sub for #BillLaswell and many of the releases are live ones with one off groups with Japanese musicians so have fun ensuring it uses Roman letters as opposed to Kanji😉 worth it in the end

Bill Laswell revealed that his manager Roger Trilling originally recorded the phrase "Ahhhhh, this stuff is really fresh", during some studio sessions. According to both Laswell and Roger Trilling himself, the later was imitating a record executive who would reportedly exclaim "this stuff is really fresh!" whenever he heard a song he liked.
This sampled imitation of an executive by Trilling was spoken through a vocoder.
"Change the Beat" by Beside & Fab 5 Freddy became one of the three most sampled vinyl in history, appearing in over 2600 tracks as of 2022.

"Putting people in racist categories
Knowledge isn't what it used to be
Military tactics to control a nation
Who wants to be a president or king? Me!
Mother Nature is gonna work against you
Nothing in your power that you can do
Yes, the world is headed for destruction
You and I know it, the Bible tells you
If we don't start to look for a better life
The world will be destroyed in a time zone!"

"Rockit" is a composition recorded by American jazz pianist #HerbieHancock #and produced by #BillLaswell and #MichaelBeinhorn. Hancock released it as a #single from his studio album #FutureShock (1983). The selection was composed by Hancock, Laswell, and Beinhorn. The track was driven by its deejay #scratch style, performed primarily by #DXT, and its #musicVideo created by #GodleyAndCreme, featuring the robotic art of #JimWhiting.
