[Nicodemus]

WHAT THE FUCK?!!!

[BeastieAlbum07]

Is this positive?

[Nerd Fight]

Nice(y)
I like the way things switch up in the middle.

[Nicodemus]

Yeah! Just wasn't expecting the full song to really pop up.

[roosta]

YES!

Love it.

[Laver1969]

Excellent!!!

[Brother McDuff]

did that just happen!?!

first listen is always the weirdest. hahaha. need about ten more before even thinking of assessing. :D


I can say though that Adrock is on fire! his second verse in particular blew my socks across the room.

[Late-Night Lion]

Oh man, this is so great. Even better than I imagined from hearing the 30 second clips.

So many great lines and sections, I love the ending!

[Brother McDuff]

yeah, raps are definitely on point (y)

[Jiberish]

haha. Love the Ted Danson/ Curb reference in the 3rd verse. funky ass beat.

[roosta]

Banging beat and some of their best lines in a while. So good.

The hook is probably the weakest element, but I still like it.

[M|X|Y]

MIKE FUCKING D (y)(y)(y)

[dave790]

cheers romania!

i like it a lot, i love the music switch up on yauchs last verse, and those who guessed him having another hook to himself (well, bridge) are correct! don't know about the last ten seconds though...ha.

hope kroq aren't too put out!

edit: oh and cheers beastiealbum07 for posting. i have checked roughly four or five times a day for something to pop up on youtube if not here, top work.

[M|X|Y]

leggo my ecko while i flex my ego (?) (y)

[Jiberish]

leggo my ecko while i flex my ego (?) (y)

It sounds like ecko but I was just assuming it's EGGO as in the waffle tag line "leggo my eggo"

[BeastieAlbum07]

Anyone else get the Cheers reference about "setting up a restaurant with Ted Dansen?"

[pshabi]

AHHHHHHHHHH! I'm at work with no youtube!!!!! I like the responses thus far though!

[Jiberish]

Anyone else get the Cheers reference about "setting up a restaurant with Ted Dansen?"

yeah that's what I was saying before. I just jumped ahead in pop culture and assumed it was a reference to Larry David starting a restaurant w/ Ted Danson on Curb Your Enthusiasm. Funny either way.

[Late-Night Lion]

It's really refreshing to hear them sample themselves playing instruments again, especially in the hip-hop marketplace today ( and even TT5B ).

[pshabi]

Somebody use this site http://www.video2mp3.net/ and rip it before it gets taken down. Preferably post a mp3 link here for yours truly if you can.

[jayjacobson16]

Well I was wrong about the verses. Awesome as fuck though! Thank you for this.

[dave790]

yeah that's what I was saying before. I just jumped ahead in pop culture and assumed it was a reference to Larry David starting a restaurant w/ Ted Danson on Curb Your Enthusiasm. Funny either way.

i thought CYE too but then i'm not all that clued up on Cheers...

[M|X|Y]

its so fucking weird, i love it (y)

PUT THE FUCKING SONG ON ITUNES ALREADY, BEATSIES! the internet is your friend!

[Jiberish]

I also LOVE the the catching MC wing clipping to hawk-eagle etc lyrical transition. And MCA "pass me a sample" line, it's all pretty classic shit.

[Jiberish]

It just got taken down.

edit: here it is on another youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN841FXtz08

I REPEAT....LOL.

Heres the mp3 http://www.2dopeboyz.com/2011/04/06/beastie-boys-make-some-noise/

[pshabi]

Heres the mp3 http://www.2dopeboyz.com/2011/04/06/beastie-boys-make-some-noise/

Ugh! I can access 2dopeboyz but the mp3 is blocked on this computer! FUCK WORK!!!!!

[M|X|Y]

EMBRACE THE INTERNET, BEASTIE BOYS...

put the flookin song on iTunes, on the front page, link to it on Youtube, etc

I'd gladly pay a frackin dollar if there was somewhere to buy it already!

[Darko]

When the drums kick in and Adrock starts rapping at the 20 second mark...fantastic.

[pshabi]

Finally found a link I could get at.....I like it upon first listen. From the break on out, shit is definitely on point.

[jayjacobson16]

Dang. Already Copyrighted haha. TOO BAD I HAVE IT ON MY ZUNE NOW EMI! HA!

[mca64]

i extracted mp3 form this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN841FXtz08

sharing right now on hub

[pshabi]

When I catch MCs...it's time for wing clippin'!!! Get 'em Yauch!

[senbei]

HOLY SHIT.

These live drum are kicking.
Scratching is crazy.
The bass slides at the end are completely lickable.
And the mix is fucking airy, complete opposite of the awful mix of TMR.

I'm officially totally hyped for this album :D

[Helvete]

lol downloaded, eat shit beasties, thanks!

[M|X|Y]

When I catch MCs...it's time for wing clippin'!!! Get 'em Yauch!


lol thats great

[Michelle*s_Farm]

Great track! Would like to download a flac version and see a video on their official youtube channel :)

[JoLovesMCA]

I am officially DEAD!!!!!!!!!!! OMFG!

[willis drummond]

Shit is sizzlin...

[Darko]

A Ted Danson mention and a cowbell solo: what more could you want from a Beastie Boys single?

[jayjacobson16]

"Pass me the scalpel
I'll make an incision
cut off the part of your brain that causes (bitchin'?)
something something something*
and put it on the shelve
you can show it to your friends and say that's my old self" - MCA

Awesome lol. I'm sure I misheard a lot though. This song is fucking awesome. The best song so far. I'm not just saying that because of the excitement either.

Definitely a highlight. Lots of grit from MCA in those lines. Not sure if it's "bitchin" or what. Originally, I thought "pissin" but that can't be it. I'ma have a go at deciphering the lyrics when I have time tonight. This shit has me emotional today.

Beastie Boys forever.

Yeah I heard "pass me the sample" which I thought was a really nice comment on making hip hop. But scalpel makes a lot more sense.:)

also on a seperate tangent. I'm pretty sure the vocoder in the hook is "You Can't Won't Stop" but I've been wrong about stuff before.

[senbei]

You can really tell from all songs we've heard from HSC that they were completely inspired by the Gala Event shows after TMU when they played their beat live and rapped on top of it (So Watcha Want, Flute Loop, Do It).

All these new songs are played live.. they went pretty fast back to studio after the tour to do the "TMU remixed" and probably ended up inspired to do that mostly live played record instead. That's the theory I had for a long time and this songs definitely confirms it more :D

Makes me wonder if the original plan was to tour playing the beat live as well..

The best part is that this is actually happening right now. We are so deprived of Beastie Boys song leaks and releases that it's even more awesome to hear one. Especially a single that dances on others' songs in awesomeness.

that's a solid theory.

[Ghouls_Night]

I try like hell to never listen to stuff before its released, just cuz I like having the art, liners etc. But I am/was having a bad day and saw this and decided to check it out.

Holy $hit! Got chills and a smile from ear to ear! Dope sound, lyrics are on point the Boys are gonna melt faces with this HSC1/2..

[Guy Incognito]

i have had a shite day at work, really busy, not been able to check on here till now. made my day. nice one.

i like it, although i hope its not best track on album but i think its a good pointer to the direction and i am very hopeful, sounds like they are enjoying themselves and i didnt always get that impression on TT5B.

[Sir SkratchaLot]

Dope. Doesn't sound live. Sounds like they chopped and looped their own playing. Definately has a similar sound to the instruments and efx used in The Mix Up.

[laurie_hammy]

Amaaaazing. Cant relate this to any other songs they'v done. Its just FRESH, BRAND NEW BEASTIES. Lifes good.

Adrock is definatly my Anti Depressor !

[JoLovesMCA]

Lyrically this is just one of their best. The hook is so strong and I agree they sound like they are really enjoying the music. I can’t stop listening to it and I can’t concentrate on anything else now. My day is all off track but that is a good thing. Happy happy joy joy.

[Burnout18]

Please let this stay up til i get home and can listen...... youtube on the blackberry does it no justice.

[mickill]

When you compare this to their previous singles (as in the singles that immediately preceded the album releases themselves...more specifically ones from before TT5B) it's kind of underwhelming. But I'm not mad at it. I'm sure it will grow on me.

[Rich Cheney]

yeah i agree, its not a big statement or big impact number but i think its more encouraging to hear that type of sound as opposed to one like TT5B, sounds more beastie like and i as i said i hope its a pointer to the sound of the rest of it

[laurie_hammy]

Mike on the main page -


Make Some Noise

This wasn’t really part of the plan, but since this track is out there we wanted to let you hear it here first, or maybe second. Enjoy

Mike


(y)(y)(y)

[Michelle*s_Farm]

"Seriously squelchy keyboards"

[Monsieur Decuts]

Amazing.....speechless.

Thank you Beastie Boys from the bottom of my heart.

[paulb]

DAMN! Im really feeling this! Yauchs verses are seriously some of the best hes ever done!! Well done! Cant wait to hear the rest of the album!

[gumkojima]

*swirls, sniffs, sips* ah, reminds me of a '94 Ortega. scrumptious !

[Rich Cheney]

oh and by the way.
the verse is
Put it in Formaldehyde and put it on your shelf.

[M|X|Y]

i can see what mickil is saying... the shit is still dope though(y) weird as hell(y)

its possible that this song is the single because it was the best one they could use when they had the opportunity to make a video with that giant list of actors? not because its the strongest track?

bands nowadays make records so they can make their living touring, they don't make a lot on album sales. so considering there probably won't be a tour, this album is pretty much a gift. could explain why so little has been put into promo? i can't understand why the track wouldnt be available for a $1 download, im pretty sure most people would buy it if that choice was made to be easy. BUT its cool that d put it up..

i have no idea how they would go about playing these songs live anyway

its cool that the song is out there now, but i STILL want to hear the album the way they and zdar intended, crystal clear sound. im definately buying this shit and bangin it on a good stereo asap

how many more albums till they don't owe capitol any more?


EDIT: i saw this too.. http://blog.beastieboys.com/post/4394591238/make-some-noise-this-wasnt-really-part-of-the people diggin it

[Michelle*s_Farm]

Lovin' the track. It really helps to solidify that the Beastie Boys are true connoisseurs of hip hop and perhaps music more generally.

[Laver1969]

Definitely has that TMU vibe. With a big splash of BS2000, too.

Thanks Mike for throwing it up on the main page. So what's the rest of the plan?

[jayjacobson16]

I wonder what the second single will be if there is one cause TMR was the original first single but was probably intended to have the second single status. I hope there is another single to be released before the album comes out. I'm not expecting one though considering we have already heard so many songs from the album. Even if they are different in this version.

Even though it's been out for two years Lee Majors should be a single. That sounds like it could easily be on the radio. Just not on Swagg/Pop stations.

The tracks I'm most exited to hear based on title would probably be

Nonstop Disco Powerpack, Long Burn the Fire, Crazy Ass Shit.

I'm going to adore this album when I hear it.(y)

[rhymesayer211]

Awww Sheot!!!!

[Michelle*s_Farm]

Thanks Mike for throwing it up on the main page. So what's the rest of the plan?

Nice question. I would like to pay for a .flac version of the track. Also I would be keen on paying for a 1080i HD downloadable version of a video. Five to eight dollars seems fair for both. Actually, I think a bonus dog with light eyes t-shirt would be fly as well for a total of 20 dollars.

Church.

[Guy Incognito]

after the shout of the chorus, what is being sung and who is singing it? All i can tell is that its an effect but its bugging the shit out of me?

[jayjacobson16]

Sounds like MCA on a vocoder saying Doooon't Stop or something like that. Probably Something completely different though. The other part after sounds something like "That's it that's it that's it!".

[Guy Incognito]

no, i am subscribing to that theory.(y)

each time i listen to it, i am being reminded of Get it together in places, i cant really explain that but its definitely reminiscent of IC era

This shit is bonkers, man. This track is ridiculously dope.

Love it!

[SoundScientist]

AMAZING. May 3rd can't come fast enough. Hurry up and get some sorta pre order LP shopping cart up dudes! PLEASE! I need this on vinyl no later than May 4th lol. SO SO SO SO SICK.

[Travis Bickle]

No lie: I listened to the first 1/3 of the song, heard the Willy Wonka Fizzy Lifting Drink reference, and felt like it would be prudent to pause the track, collect myself, and regroup a bit before continuing. Fizzy Lifting Drink, fools!

Onward.

[Fannypakks]

OMG. Sounds so classic. Can't wait for this albummmmmm.

[Jay Stone]

Thank God it's not 2 minutes long (short!)

[senbei]

I knew that drumming pattern was familiar... Remote Control!

When I heard the track I had to go back to Public Enemy's "Get the F--K Outta Dodge"
Similar drum beat on that one also...

(y) Best QUOTE of the day! :)

[cj hood]

MSN > CIO
-it's better than the 30s snippet lead on to....no surprise there!
-chorus could have been better...'PFYRTF' been there/done that!
-same doo-doo rhymes...carbon copy of BBITC and 25 other beastie trax!

-definitely agree with the post about the TMU influence...i love the beat, muzac, cowbell...the break's fresh!
-and this is why HSC2 will be much better than TT5B cuz they're doing the music.....sampling themselves ala CYH, IC but a different sound!
-if you put the lyrics/rhymin of LM over a regular breakbeat it's just another doo doo track...but the way they did it: A+

-i still feel that if this album dropped a few years ago MSN would not be a single let alone a lead off track!

LM: A+
HLSFY (numbers version that'll never be released): A+
PYB: A
TMR: B
BBITC: B-
MSN: B

get well yauch!

[facedownfall]

The beat reminds me a lot of "The Cousin of Death" from TMU, which I love so I'm feeling this too!

[Kid Presentable]

-definitely agree with the post about the TMU influence...i love the beat, muzac, cowbell...the break's fresh!
-i still feel that if this album dropped a few years ago MSN would not be a single let alone a lead off track!


The Mix Up influence is almost stronger than the 'IC' thing people keep talking about since the break is long and live (ie a considerably longer sample of themselves - more musical) unlike anything on IC or CYH. It would be the equivalent of them rapping over large chunks of Futterman's or In 3s.

It was always meant to be the lead single, by the way. And yes, Yauch, hope you feel better soon breh.

EDIT: So fucking late for work listening to this hahaa

[pshabi]

No MMM scratches on the break....unlike every track on TT5B. Wonder how much he did on this thing?

[Kid Presentable]

I think MMM's contributions have been unfairly shitted on. He's a force for good, he just needed to be used more creatively.

[pshabi]

I ain't shittin'......I love anything MMM has ever done w/ the bboys. Live or on wax.

[Kid Presentable]

Yeah but it was either the 'space-anus scratch' all through the background like on select Hello Nasty tracks, or the 'time your shits by it' break-routine scratch. He could have put on a clinic a la the live 92 New Style, like a 3mcs that people could dance to. Oh well. (y)

[pshabi]

I fly like a hawk, better yet a eagle, a seagull, sniff suckiz out like a beagle.........lol get it son!

When MMM first came on the scene it drove me a little nuts that he was messing with the beats. But I've since come around and absolutely love what he does. Live or on wax.

[JoLovesMCA]

I have been everywhere today reading people’s thoughts on Make Some Noise and one thing I found out is that the majority who have been the most critical are the Beasties hardcore fans. But I am not saying that is bad because you know being a long time supporter I think you have that right to do that! Anyway my take on this is that when I listen to rap now it’s either tooooo cheesy or too violent. Beasties balance that. I don’t mind that it has a classic sound to it. It’s a new decade and each decade music changes and sometimes it brings old school back and sometimes it doesn’t. Luckily we have a band who stays true to hip hop. I mean aren’t a lot of rappers doing collabs with Justin Bieber? Shivers at the thought of where rap is today. Ha ha well I could be all alone here but oh well just my thoughts as of this moment!

[MCScoobyT]

Thank you Money Mark and Protools. Love this beat

[M.C. Guevera]

That choir sample or whatever it is that they used is bloody awesome.

[Jiberish]

Nice nod to Walk This Way in Ad-Rock's verse after the break.

It's so awesome to get to discover and dissect a new Beastie Boys song again.

[M.C. Guevera]

It's going to be quite the moment when Yauch gets on stage again. You're gonna get goosebumps.

[midzi]

It's definitely different than anything out there. Yauch sounds great - I'd buy his record. But I find Mike's delivery annoying.

The chorus could have been better.

[Brother McDuff]

splendid. lovin' the universal appreciation for this jam around these parts. feels good. (y)


just some thoughts:

- i love that each bboy has gotten specific shout outs on this thread as to the strength of their lyricism on this joint, sounds like they're all on point
- wouldn't consider the drums a "sampling of themselves" so much as Mike played live and they just edited them here and there, particularly the fills
- definite TMU influence
- the kick is HUGE. hits really hard.
- maybe Yauch and Adrock are doing their own scratches again. love MMM to death, but that would be a really cool scenario too
- Thanks for the new sig, Darko. :)A Ted Danson mention and a cowbell solo: what more could you want from a Beastie Boys single?

[Kid Presentable]

- wouldn't consider the drums a "sampling of themselves" so much as Mike played live and they just edited them here and there, particularly the fills

To be fair I only said that in response to SirSkratch who claimed the whole thing is just samples and loops of themselves. I'm venturing that if they are samples, they're much longer than normal sections of music and hence more song-y than loop-y. See the break and the outro, could have been spliced in, could have been played live. Wahey minutiae

[Nerd Fight]

I've been listening to the track at work today, really digging it. Random thoughts, for anyone interested:

- I really like the style of their new stuff; rapping over instruments. I think it gives the songs a real kick which TT5B kind of lacked, and I think it helps take the songs into slightly weird directions, like the intro, outro, and bridge in Make Some Noise.

- MSN sounds really 70's. It could almost be the theme tune to a shaft-like 70's cop show. From TT5B onward the band seem to have become more and more nostalgic for the 70's, which is weird because they're more identified with the 80's.

- Rhyme highlights for me: Adrock rapping about seagulls and eagles, Mike D rhyming about Ted Danson, MCA explaining his brain surgery technique.

[jayjacobson16]

Why do some people say "keys"? I thought the main beat was Adrock on the guitar. Unless they chopped it and used a keyboard or something like that.

[roosta]

I loved this song from first listen, but the hook wasn't really doing it for me, now its growing on me too.

Seriously strong single.

[Brother McDuff]

Why do some people say "keys"? I thought the main beat was Adrock on the guitar. Unless they chopped it and used a keyboard or something like that.

in the clips, i originally suspected the main line was guitar, but i'm sure it's keys now.

sounds like a tone from a Moog Little Phatty, though considering the recent video of Adrock workin the Slim Phatty I would assume maybe its that. chained through a wah pedal and perhaps the maestro for that buzzy distortion?

who knows.


pretty sure the vocoder line is "dooon't stop", i second that notion.

[cAm]

great track!
i love it
fat sounds and nice lyrics

reminds me of "the maestro" a little, but better!

is it may 3rd yet?

[Mr. Smacktackle]

really like the drum mix here. it's fat, it's dirty, and it's rollin

also, seein all this funky lingo goin on (synth line, breaks, modulations, bass punctuations, cowbell) makes the track very jammy and positive-vibed, and that style is all beastie no doubt about it
it's funky, lovable, juicy.. makes you wanna listen & enjoy it..
it's a great track :)

For the record I said

Dope. Doesn't sound live. Sounds like they chopped and looped their own playing. Definately has a similar sound to the instruments and efx used in The Mix Up.

To say I said "the whole thing is just samples and loops of themselves" is poor paraphasing. It's hard to tell but I gather they're some third party samples in there too. In any event, you guys are misreading my post and then disagreeing with your own misreading of what you thought I said.

I do think it's safe to say that you are not hearing a live jam session by the Beasties with them rapping over it. They might try to play em that way if they tour. It's a lot to bite off though . . .

To say I said "the whole thing is just samples and loops of themselves" is poor paraphasing.

Is it? Or is there some kind of cultural thing at work here? You said it doesn't sound live. It does (outside of the samples, which I too can hear). Moreso than So Watcha Want, Alright Hear This or even The Maestro. I should have guessed you were talking about every third bar only. As such I think it's pretty nice paraphrasing, to be honest.

Yes it would be too much to recreate live, I agree.

Now you're just confusing me dood. I think you're messing up your terminology. Live means played live without looping or sampling. The musician plays the shit and its not 2 or 4 or 8 or 16 bar loops, its played through from beginning to end. It's played and recorded and played back pretty much as it was recorded. Back in the old days they wouldn't even edit the shit in mastering. Miles Davis would record a whole album in a night and they'd just record and pretty much press it up. They are definately sampling chopping and looping in this track.

Even if you are looping your own live playing, you're still "sampling". "Sampling" does not mean that you use someone else's sounds. It' means that you record a sound and play it back. Sometimes you even loop it. Like you said, the beasties did lots of this in the Check Your Head era. They just samples shorter segments a lot of times.

Anyway, it sounds pretty clear to me that they're looping in this track even though they're using some longer loops. The instrument sounds sound a lot like the mix up sessions. Which is why I said it sounds like they sampled themselves and looped up segements. There are all sorts of other elements in there as well.

It may sound "live" to you because they're looping longer segments but it's looped, so it's not live. Lots of hip hop samples longer loop segments, it may not sound like that to you because sometimes the players are so good that you can't tell.

Wait, I'm not even sure why I'm writing all this. I stand by whatever it was I said the first time and not your interpretation of whatever it was I said.

Now you're just confusing me dood. I think you're messing up your terminology. Live means played live without looping or sampling. The musician plays the shit and its not 2 or 4 or 8 or 16 bar loops, its played through from beginning to end. It's played and recorded and played back pretty much as it was recorded.

Haha I knew you were too precious to let it go. I mean, who cares in the end? You misinterpreted what McDuff meant, which was what motivated by something I said and blah blah blah. You think I'm a complete idiot regarding the terminology, too. Nice. (y) It still sounds like it was played (largely) from beginning to end. Loops = repetition, and I'm not hearing a lot of it outside of the keys. That's why it sounds live to me. Sounds.

FYI Sir Skratchalot is one of the most knowledgeable members of this forum and an asset to the fan community. It's all good; I'm just passing time.

Yesca.

It's been a delayed Spring here in the NYC Metro and this track and the eventual album coming out in a few weeks has the BBQ season looking bright. The Soundtrack of summer 2011 and beyond is upon us.

Man! Of course they keep yanking it but we get it here from the guys & it's such an off the hook old school masterpiece! Can't listen to it enough-thank you Mike D., King AdRock, and MCA (who sounds fiercer than ever!!!) for the welcome break from the wreckage that is the music world these days(y):D:p

so you like it now, Hood?

I said I liked it....just thought they shouldn't have used the 'party for your right to fight' line....but the use of their instruments make up for it!!!
