"Papermill" is a song recorded by American hip-hop duo Madvillain. It was released 26 May 2010 as part of the Adult Swim Singles Program.[1][2][3]
Background
"Papermill" was intended to serve as the first single from Madvillain's still-unreleased followup to Madvillainy.[4] According to label Stones Throw, the album had been in progress since 2009.[5] The song was the second single released in the 2010 Adult Swim Singles Program.[6] The Madlib-produced beat samples the chopped-up europop song "Irgendwie" by the German Jazzrock band Blonker from a 1978 live recording.[7] Adult Swim also released some behind-the-scenes videos to go along with the song of Madlib talking about his creative process while taste-testing some Intelligentsia coffee branded with his name.[8]
