The Music's Coming Through Me

From track 2 of DJ Shadow’s Endtroducing, Building Steam with a Grain of Salt:

I’m a student of the drum,
And I’m also a teacher

The voice of George Marsh:

I would like to continue to let what is inside of me
Which comes from all the music I hear
I’d like for that to come out
It’s not really me that’s coming
The music’s coming through me

As I revisited this track, I was reminded of Marvin “Bugalu” Smith’s monologue in Marquis Hill’s We Must Be One.
