It was Tribe Called Quest Vs. Aphrodite. I personally thought it turned out
nicely, although other tracks I've seen remixed by Aphrodite are usually rap
tracks laid over previously made mixes. Initially this sounds like a bad
idea, but the end tracks sound very good. Anyway this may be why the beats
sound misplaced.
