    update the FAQ itself with what we know

  7. #7

    shit I've been posting under the admin account

  8. #8

    heres the FAQ lets add and change what needs to be updated

    A...General Information

    1...Who is PM Dawn?

    1a...Prince Be

    Born Attrell Cordes, Prince Be is the oldest of the two brothers
    (b. 15 May 1970). He provides the majority of the vocals for PM Dawn.
    For some reason, he is also the more recognizable member of the duo.

    1b...DJ Minute Mix

    Jarrett Cordes (17 July 1971), the younger of the two brothers,
    writes and performs most of the music for PM Dawn.

    JC: "We both work on production together, Prince Be goes off on vibes
    and writes the songs, then sings me the melodies and I come up with beats
    and tracks. That's pretty much my role; producer/co-producer. We really
    produce the music together."

    Hailing from Jersey City, New Jersey (their step-father was a
    member of Kool And The Gang), their backgrounds were shrouded
    in tragedy. Their real father died of pneumonia when they were children,
    and their brother Duncan drowned when he was two years old. They came
    from a highly musical family - 10 of their aunts and uncles were rappers
    and DJs in the genre's early days in the 70s, when Prince Be started rapping as a youngster at family parties. They were equally influenced by 60s pop and duly incorporated harmonies in their work.

    2...What's Daisy Age Soul?

    Daisy Age Soul is the rumored moniker that PM Dawn had recorded their demos under, (including "Check The Logic") before getting signed to Gee Street Records. Later refuted by Prince Be himself, who said they never did produce anything under this name. They simply were known as Prince Bee & DJ MinuteMix.

    3...What does "PM Dawn" mean?

    It is meant to indicate "the transistion from dark to light". Or, directly from Prince Be, "PM Dawn is an abbreviation of the idea that in the darkest hour comes the light."

    4...What was PM Dawns first hit?

    While "Ode To A Forgetful Mind" was their first released single, "A Watcher's Point Of View" was the first song to chart. It broke into the UK Top 40 in 1991. They wouldn't find success in the US, however, until the release of "Set Adrift On Memory Bliss", where it broke into the Hot 100 and rose to be the #1 single in the country according to Billboards Pop and R&B charts.

    5...Where does PM Dawn record their music?

    Bliss Studios, their own private studio in Jersey City, NJ.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    C...Miscellaneous Information

    1..."What samples have PM Dawn used in their songs?"

    "True" - Spandau Ballet............................................ ..........."Set Adrift On A Memory Bliss"
    "Father Figure" - George Michael........................................"Lo oking Through Patient Eyes"
    "I Had a King" - Joni Mitchell.......................................... ...."Ways Of The Wind"
    "Hush" - Deep Purple............................................ .............."Downtown Venus"
    "Four 0' Clock In The Mornin" - The Hassles......................."My Own Personal Gravity"
    "Pacific" - 808 State............................................. ..............."I'll Be Waiting For You"

    2..."Why is this "So On and So On" song listed on my CD jacket, but not actually on the
    album (TBA)?"

    3..."Why can't I find FM or UN in stores?"

    FM/UN was sold briefly (about a month) on pmdawn.net.
    It was never made availible in stores.

    4..."Why did they stop selling FM/UN on pmdawn.net?"


    4a..."Can I still get a copy of FM/UN?"

    Unfortunately, no. If you didn't order and receive the cds from
    pmdawn.net at the end of 2000, then you missed the boat.

    5..."Who is this Christian referred to in the album title DC?"

    Prince Be's son.

    6..."Are PM Dawn still around?"

    YES! They are still together making music after 14 years.

    7..."When will there be another PM Dawn album?"

    Probably sometime mid-2002.

    8..."Will it have any of the tracks from FM/UN?"

    Maybe one or two (which tracks they will be is unknown at this time).

    9..."What happened with KRS-One / De La Soul?"


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    D...PM Dawn On The Internet

    1..."Are either members of PM Dawn on the internet?"

    Prince Be has been known to pop up from time to time on a message board
    affiliated with a fan site (which is widely considered to be the unofficial "official"
    web site for PM Dawn).

    2..."Is there a fan community? Where can I reach them?"

    There are fan forums at:
    http://www.pmdawn.net
    http://www.ngdsinc.com/pmdawn/

    (the latter of which is meant to be a replacement for the former).

    3..."What's PM Dawn's policy on MP3s?"

    It seems that PM Dawn are not fans of MP3s. When FM/UN was released,
    Prince Be made his intentions clear by expressing his desire for the tracks to
    not be encoded to MP3 and made availible on Napster (when it was still around).
    Doing a search today in any other MP3-acquiring system, you will find that most
    of PM Dawns tracks have been blocked from download due to copyright restrictions.

    4..."What about rare/live stuff?"

    Well, it seems there arent many live or rare tracks out there in the first place so
    at this time, it isn't safe to assume that PM Dawn are for or against live music trading.
    PM Dawn (like most music acts) do not allow their concerts to be recorded.
    Most rare tracks were included with FM/UN (see above for PM Dawns stance on
    "acquiring" these tracks).
