Ah well, this EP ended up being a decent slab of wax too. The B side (featured here) is a nice laid back breakbeat techno track, well arranged and tasteful.  I kind of err on the side of posting more raging tracks on this site&#8230; heavy on the mentasms, crazy beats,  and hands-in-the-air piano lines.   This track has none of those, but is still a nice early tune that I&#8217;d definitely throw in a set.   The A side (&#8220;Lovin&#8217; You&#8221;) is a weird, almost proto-intelligent sounding remix of  Minnie Riperton &#8220;Loving You&#8221; (&#8220;Loving you&#8230; is easy because you&#8217;re beautiful&#8230;&#8221;). Not sure what I think about that one yet, but this tune is solid!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/2-We-Is-1-Lovin-You\/release\/221625\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/the_2.jpg\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/blog\/audio\/The 2 - We Is 1.mp3\">The 2 &#8211; We Is 1<\/a><br \/><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-1139-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"\/blog\/audio\/The%202%20-%20We%20Is%201.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"\/blog\/audio\/The%202%20-%20We%20Is%201.mp3\">\/blog\/audio\/The%202%20-%20We%20Is%201.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On with the obscurities&#8230; I picked this up after checking out a snippet of it which turned out to be from a different record.
