From 1999 Till Now: originally a 1984 bootleg, mixed by Peter 'Hithouse' Slaghuis and unofficially released. You might recognize Peter's style: his 'stop and go' mixing and stutter sampling signature is the same as on the famous Discobreaks bootleg series. I've reconstructed the mix digitally in Ableton Live. Nu hoor ik op jouw mixcloud mixen van UB40, Nile Rodgers en M&M die ik graag zou willen uit zenden.

When Prince initially submitted the album to Warner Bros. 1999 did not exist, but the label asked him to produce a song that summarized the theme of the LP. The song was recorded at Kiowa Trail Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota on the same day as Little Red Corvette, August 7, 1982. It was mixed at Sunset Sound Studio in Hollywood. Prince gave a rare interview in 1999 when he spoke with Larry King on CNN. More surprisingly, he explained the meaning behind this song. Said Prince: We were sitting around watching a special about 1999, and a lot of people were talking about the year and speculating on what was going to happen. And I just found it real ironic how everyone that was around me whom I thought to be very optimistic people were dreading those days, and I always knew I’d be cool.

Released date October 1982. Labels Warner Music Group WEA.

Naturally, the effect was slightly more mechanical and robotic than his previous work and strongly recalled the electro-funk experiments of several underground funk and hip-hop artists at the time. Prince had also constructed an album dominated by computer funk, but he didn't simply rely on the extended instrumental grooves to carry the album - he didn't have to when his songwriting was improving by leaps and bounds

Sure, Prince stretches out a bit too much over the course of 1999, but the result is a stunning display of raw talent, not wallowing indulgence.
