A KO
Doing some research this morning on a track which I've been listening to for awhile now, A KO's "Soul 69". A nice remix of - what doesn't sound like Sam and Dave but is their song - "Hold On, I'm Coming." I got the track off of a Blue Water compliation some time last year. Who is this, I kept asking. American? English? So as I'm doing some writing this morning on the mix and the question of what I am now calling "Ka-knowledge" (named after the line in The Beastie's "Sounds of Science" - the mix as knowledge as opposed to literate practices of mastery and expertise), I find A KO's Livejournal.
That is what Ka-knowledge is all about: the exploration of the link. The exploration. Not a definitive explication of that exploration.
So, A KO, if you find my links, let me know what the track listings are, eh? Nice stuff. Is this track a riff on Arethra Franklin's album Soul '69?

hey, this is a-ko, my friend just showed me this link...the version of "hold on i'm coming" that i used is chuck jackson & maxine brown's, from 1967 on wand.

the title was inspired by that aretha album but no samples from it were used.

you should check out my upcoming track on the soulstrut producers comp / promo 12" coming out soon. read more about it at www.olski.net

later!
