Count Bass D
Some Music Part 4 - Vinyl Ain't Dead Yet

Listening notes

Count Bass D released Some Music Part 4 - Vinyl Ain't Dead Yet in 2007 through Domination Recordings, catalogued as DOMMIX10. The release is formatted as a CDr and sits within the hip hop, instrumental, and jazzy hip-hop genres.

The title itself makes a pointed statement about recorded music formats during a period when digital distribution was reshaping how listeners acquired music. That the release appeared on CDr rather than the vinyl its title champions is a detail the record's own title seems to acknowledge with some self-awareness, though what precisely Count Bass D intended by that tension is not something the available facts can resolve.

The tracklist spans thirty entries, an unusually generous number for a single release. Several titles suggest a crate-digger orientation and a familiarity with jazz and soul history. "Yusef Rest In Peace" and "Bailey Cathedral 1980" read as dedications or references, while "Common Break #19" nods directly to the practice of cataloguing and deploying sampled drum breaks. "You Need This 45" and "A Big Easy Classic" similarly invoke the language of record collecting. Whether these are interpolations, original compositions, or something else entirely, the available facts do not confirm.

Other titles carry the plainspoken wit associated with underground hip hop: "Coke Is A No No," "Kenny Must Think I'm On Dope," "95% Of The Music Industry," and "Get Off My Style" each read as editorial gestures compressed into a track name. "Dreaming Of Brasil" and "Jamaicans Get Down" suggest geographic and musical range across the thirty cuts.
