The Perennial Philosophy changed up the tempo a bit when we had Hanni El Khatib (also a member of Her Space Holiday) doing a live acoustic set in studio and playing us some tracks off of his solo EP. Nick Andre (of Slept on Records and City Light) jumped in on xylophone  for an impromtu version of Kelis' Millionaire that I had on repeat for days (and was making everyone I could listen... it's still up on The Perennial Philosophy myspace player as well).  And may I say anyone that brings a xylophone in for a live set is automatically my hero! There's not much you can do with it that doesn't make something sound better. Nick also finally played us some of the City Light tracks that will be dropping on the album early 2008. 
Taking the sounds that we all love in hip hop and bringing them together with all other sides of musical expression is what the show is all about and I'd be pressed to find two better folks to represent that.  By bringing versatility to multiple instruments and gathering living music into their production, you feel the energy and soul that much more... plus Hanni drops sum mean "oooohs"... and you know how the girls love those "oooohs".  So Check the links and enjoy the show. I threw the whole thing up unedited for that raw radio feel. Plus I wanted peeps to hear the live versioned remix of Pharoahe Monch's "Body Baby" at the end which I wasn't even allowed to keep a copy of.
