And You Don’t Stop All Night

Knxwledge “amansloveislife_keepon”

Knxwledge has an incredible ear for small moments in songs that can stand up to repetition, and take on a very different character when shaped into an indefinite loop. This cut is essentially a remix of the Patrice Rushen song “Remind Me” that zeroes in on its core keyboard riff and jettisons its traditional song structure in favor of an extended vamp that feels weightless as most of the percussion is emptied out. The bits of beat that remain imply a groove more than they form one, especially with the snare hit that feels more like an accent at the end of the chord sequence rather than like something keeping time. Rushen’s voice is still there, but chopped up so it sounds like she’s just expressing a gratitude for this incredibly smooth groove.
