From the Top: The Sound of Wu-Tang and the Art of Sampling

THU // JAN 31 // 6:30 PM

From their conception, the Wu-Tang Clan lead not only with their distinct sound, but also the Kung-Fu imagery that transported the listener to an amalgam of 1990s Staten Island with Hong Kong from your favorite kung-fu flick. Each offering from the collective since their debut contained the combination of gritty street sound, soulful samples, poetic punches to the gut, and a panache for a unique Shaolin, NY aesthetic.

To honor the iconic group, we’re kicking off our run of shows with The Sound of Wu-Tang and The Art of Sampling! The show will break down exactly what makes The Wu sound so special, featuring a production demo revealing the magic behind some of your favorite Wu-Tang songs, followed by an intimate conversation with hip-hop historian and African-American studies expert, Joe Schloss.

Doors 6:30pm / Show 7:00pm

Tickets: $10 adv / $12 door
