In other news, Souls of Mischief recently waxed poetic about their classic release, 1993’s 93 ’til Infinity. During an interview with SPIN, the group’s A-Plus revealed that the original title track was named differently. “The original song was called ’91 ‘Til Infinity.’ We were in high school, just making songs, making demos, trying to get them to send out to people, and it was just a concept for a song. It had a whole different beat. We never really laid the song down, but we wrote verses. Time moved forward and we were working on the album, and we were like, ‘We should do a “92 ‘Til Infinity.”‘ But the album didn’t come out ’til ’93. So that was that. The other beat was slower, more somber, this was one was more upbeat.”
