The 9th entry into the Heat Rock catalog dives deep into Memphis Soul / Funk territory with a pair of ‘stems’ remixes. The A-side features a track from Chicago’s Altered Tapes crew and their take on a West Coast Gangster Rap classic. And on the flip, Oakland’s own DJ Platurn banged out a drum break-heavy edit and homage to one of our favorite, early cut ‘n paste producers. Cop doubles for all your wax addiction needs!

ATCQ - Award Tour (Altered Tapes Rework)

With all projects rooted in diversity, Mixologi teams up with DJ @Kingmost (SF) for a redirection of D'Angelo’s classic “Brown Sugar," blended with the sounds of Lord Shorty, the godfather of Soca. This remix is truly the best of both worlds.

Altered Tapes - It's Like Butter

An ode to Chicago(ans). Common, Kanye, & Ahmad Jamal. Uptempo breakbeat-heavy flip of 'They Say' from Common's early 00's classic album 'Be.' With all the extra Altered flavorings you know and love! #keepbouncing

They Said

Altered Tapes - They Said (An Ode to Chicago)

Do you really want to party?

Back with another dancefloor burner! We kept the vibe of Busta's minimal slow roll classic, but upped the tempo and wrapped it with chunky b-boy drum break for extra bounce. And just for fun, the maxi-single includes an instrumental too! #keepbouncing

Busta Rhymes - Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See (Altered Tapes Remix)

West Coast vs Memphis

And now for our next trick.... we dipped into the Stax catalog for a Memphis Funk-flavored remix of one our favorite West Coast Gangster Rap tracks. A  horn-heavy affair with a big drum break and bassline. The perfect soundtrack for winding down your Summer!

This song will support the Chicago West Community Music Center whose mission is "to harness the creative potential of individuals through education and to inspire artistic and cultural expression in such a way that helps foster positive relationships across neighborhood lines." We encourage you to visit their site to learn more about how the Center uses Music to inspire Chicago Youth in under-served neighborhoods.

Altered Tapes - The Breakdown

Chill Bro, Power Up 🥊☝️

Many of you may be familiar with the legend of this song, how it pitted a small indie label (Wild Pitch) against the BMG behemoth, and opened doors for Sampling / Remixes. Most likely, you're more familiar with Snap's version than Chill Rob's and this is a problem we'd like to fix. We're hardcore Flava Unit / 45 King fans over here, so our idea with this remix was to create a version focused on Chill Rob that will hopefully make you forget about Snap completely. We built this around a bell-less drum break that we all know and love and turned up the energy a few notches for a Moombahton/ Jazz Dance / B-Boy killer. Includes a hookless, but horny instrumental as well as a version with hook. It's getting kinda hectic!

Altered Tapes - Let the Power Flow

Keep Bouncing.

Drawing inspiration from decades of Funk, Latin, Jazz and Hip-Hop music, Altered Tapes remixes / re-edits / reworks the classics. Extracting their basic elements and then reconstructing into dance floor bangers.

The production / DJ duo consists of Maker & DJ Trew. Fueled by a passion for crate digging, original breaks, and timeless music, the overall concept of the project is to elevate the art of the remix to unexplored levels. Their creations remain true to the original artists & songs, while at the same time becoming completely new compositions.

Live and direct from the Windy City...
