Romanthony – Hold On

Thomas Bangalter gives a Quadrant Dub II-style dub on the flip. A cute attempt cut extremely short

Track A: a dreamy soulful house classic, a wonderful, iconic Roulé Record. The lyrics and the speech hold relevance in today’s climate. A truly special niche track. RIP Romanthony

Does anyone know the exact speech that the sample at the beginning is from? I believe it's Louis Farrakhan and i've been told that it was the talk he did at Jacob Javits in '93 but i've listened to the whole recording of that talk and it's not there.

Would love to know if anyone knows where i can find this sample?

This release is actually just a vinyl rip made into an AIFF file

Romanthony: "When my underground sound became overground around 1995, all the trappings and pressures of dealing with worldwide attention threatened to stall the innovation & excitement of (my) club music, instead of giving the $ more attention than the music I decided to 'HOLD ON' to the spirit of discovery... " RIP

the best on roule forget about the rest if yo like roman check out "the wanderer"

I actually think in the grand scheme of things, this is the best record on Roule. Better perhaps than even 'Music Sounds Better'. It's just SUCH a timeless slice of Garage, whereas MSB - though awesome - still feels a little more of it's time...

This song is great! Romanthony has an awesome voice, a truly soulful song.

This song isn't only made for the dancefloor. After the pressing of this record they let God bless it. This is a God given track. Put this song on and have your own ceremony at home. It's got soul.

an absolutely beautiful slab of gospel house. crisp romanthony production, heart-rending vocals, and some preacher samples thrown in for good measure. a real lip-trembler.
