Timbo [2021] - Pickles [1800TIMBO] (Full Album)

The first time I came across beatmaker Timbo was a couple of weeks ago with his single "Hypnotized" which sampled the Clifton Dyson song of the same name from 1984 which, coincidentally, I posted two versions of only just over two weeks previously.

He released another album "Pickles" (which looks like his eleventh) yesterday (10 Dec 2021). It will be fun and games trying to identify the samples used as he seems to mash-up rare soul tunes. It was/is actually on Bandcamp from 24 Nov but the latest release has two additional tracks.

Timbo is a 22 year old Timothy Prendergast who is beatmaker from Boston, MA, He's taken influence from J Dilla, 9th Wonder, and the Avalanches and started making music when one of his close friends gave him a license of FL Studio 12 in 2017. Through his sound, he tries to translate the intimate feeling of sampling at a turntable. He states that it's a personal experience that is only known by himself. Pickles contains a few choice selections of work made over a six month period. He says that the project is 'rough around the edges' but showcases technical sampling & hypnotic swing rhythms. 

I spotted one of the tracks, "V2", yesterday but didn't realise it was from an album. I have identified a few of the samples used (with help from Timbo for the ones I couldn't recognise), anyone know what the other two are? 

1 - Maybe - The Whispers "Lady" (1979) and Crescendo Beats "Mafia" (2021)

2 - I Owe You - Brighter Side Of Darkness "I Owe You Love" (1973)

3 - Call My Phone - Chaz "I Want To Talk To You" (1982)

4 - V2 - The Montclairs - "Dreaming's Out Of Season" (1972)

5 - Hand In Mine - ?

6 - Nobody Like You - The Imperials "No One Makes Love Like You Do" (1978)

7 - Wide Open - ?
