There isn’t going to be any more new Beastie Boys music unless we get some version of Hot Sauce Committee Part One.
As a longtime Beasties fan, I’m not sure that has really sunk in yet. But it’s where we’re at. Apart from the odd collaboration like Mike D on Cassius’ ‘Action’ (he also recently appeared with Slaves), that’ll be it from Adrock and Mike.
During the summer I spent a week listening to Beastie remixes (must do a post sometime) so this is right up my street. A couple of years ago, Coin put together a mashup album featuring Beastie Boys raps over Daft Punk beats and it’s been doing the rounds again this week.
It’s a fun listen too. Check It Out is my favourite.
