This Dilla tribute by a musician is an quite interesting one among the many ones out there. Octavio Santos gets the head nodding while showing finesse on his instrument in an approach which combines Jazz, Funk and Hip Hop. With smooth brass harmonies paired with vocoders against a drum groove which stands at the forefront, Octavio Santos pays a moving tribute to the one known as Jay Dee.

Octavio tells quite an interesting story behind how his discovery of Dilla's music has influenced him and impacted his life. Read about it here at Octavio's Bandcamp where his cover of "Fall In Love" is available as a free download.
