As I'm sure you'll have read by now, Jimmy Castor sadly died earlier this week. 

I discovered Jimmy Castors music through the early eighties Breakdance scene where he was extensively sampled (he's said to be the most sampled musician outside of James Brown) so in tribute I thought it would be fitting to take a number of those samples and create a 'Breakdance' version of one of my personal faves from his back catalogue 'It's Just Begun'.

Sliced, diced and chopped with love & respect for a true originator. x

And for the DJ's amongst you, this has an intro tempo of 115 Bpm and an outro tempo of 99 Bpm.
