A wonderful mashup of Nas' One Mic with Ennio Morricone's Ecstasy of Gold, from the soundtrack for The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, mixed by DJ Erb. It gives One Mic a proper sense of grandeur it so desperately needs (sorry, whoever thought it would be a good idea to sample Phil Collins), and it gives Ecstasy of Gold a fresh look: a movie I recognize as important but still have never seen, from a genre only now making a second (or is it third?) wave, by a composer whose decades of fame have passed. The idea to create this, let alone the skill involved in actually doing so, is staggering.
