universal principles - inspirational breaks

i found this some years ago on a soma label compilation and it was something that clicked with me instantly. a quite bumping piece of funky broken beat with punchy drums, lovely strings and nice rhodes like stabs. truth be told the name of the track is quite pretentious but it's makes sort of sense if you hear the vocal 4/4 version "inspiration + light"

the drums was the thing i got attracted to the most and it was partly due to it's use of the break from coke escovedo's b-boy classic "i wouldn't change a thing", the other factor was those loud ride hats. the melodics carry out like it's 4x4 house counterpart but with more of a swing.

it's still rhythmical stabby notes that go through a couple of patterns and progressions but it carries out more naturally given the rhythm and nature of the track.
