We're back with our annual foray into the depths of the Wu-Tang catalog! This one has been brewing for a minute. We tried using a half dozen different drum breaks before we settled on the final monster. Overall, this is a more stripped down Altering. Just a big ol drum break, a heavy bassline, and blaring horn chops. Enjoy!

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.

How it will work: The 1st week of this song's release, when purchasing via Bandcamp, if you *pay more* that money will be considered your donation. If you only pay the base rate, we will contribute 50% of your purchase to CWCMC. If you'd like to give more than what this system allows or want to support the Center directly, go to www.cwcmc.org !!

Thanks for listening and for supporting,
#keepbouncing

U Know What's Up

U Know What's Up feat. Sergiio Selim

A pair of Classic Hip-Hop Stepper's remixes inspired by an old mixtape idea Maker and I had many years ago... Having a Stepper's set ready at a moment's notice is damn near a requirement for being a Chicago DJ. So, seeing as I had no idea Steppin was a thing prior to transplanting here, it was a verrry sharp learning curve once I started DJing around town. What I found most interesting, when thinking of it as a genre of music, is that anything can be a Stepper. No matter the artist, or song, or category. As long as it has the right movement.

A fact that makes for fun times in the studio! These remixes come from sessions earlier this Summer when it was just starting to feel like Summer. I was going for a 'windows rolled down on a Sunday afternoon' vibe. Also, I just love putting Hip-Hop over smooth sh*t lol. Enjoy!

Master Blaster Flip (Free DL)

Back with another Wu Banger! This one has been in the works since 2015, and since then it's been at least 5 different versions with completely different sounds. This final take is centered on a massive drum break and the original "Daytona" sample, and includes a few homages to artists who've sampled "Nautilus" over the years. #mercuryraps

Ghostface Killah - Daytona (Altered Tapes Remix Instrumental)

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!
