ERICK AND PARRISH MAKING ECHO

Parrish Smith of EPMD on the track "You Gots To Chill" from the album Strictly Business, quoted in Check the Technique by Brian Coleman: "We use a ton of echo-chamber effect on that track, because that was always big. You gotta write about the echo chamber, please, for hip-hop. There's a lot of essentials missing in the game right now. I had two echo chambers myself. After we finished the song in the studio, Charlie [Marotta] showed us the button where the echo was and we could put it where we wanted. We were ODing on it, using it all over the place."
