A new mashup titled "Set Me Free" from Plaizir Muzic's Assal. The obvious sample is McFadden & Whitehead's "Ain't No Stopping Us
Now" but don't have a Scooby Doo what the overlaid vocal is from. It
sounds like a 70s or early 80s Philly song (to us) which we thought sounds
a bit like Slick or Philly Cream but not either. Anyone?
The song is scheduled for release on 21 Jul or available now on
Traxsource.
We have done a bit of further digging on the artist as most of his
mashups are pretty good and he generally uses obscure tracks rather than
the obvious. He is originally from Annaba, Algeria, now living in Quebec,
and have learned that Assal translates to 'Honey' in Arabic. We have reached
out for further information and are awaiting a response.
Assal has told us that he used the acapella from Qubiko's "Set Me Free" but
doesn't know who the singer is. Quibiko is Giuseppe Di Stasi, an Italian DJ who released a
three track EP "These Days" in March 2018 on Defected which included "Set Me Free". We also found the
acapella version on Spotify (it's not on the EP) which was released on a
Defected compilation "Defected Accappelas Deluxe, Vol, 15" in March 2019.
"Set Me Free" was also sampled by Mendo in 2019 for "Get A Funk".
