Hailing from Boston's gritty section of Dorchester, one of the inner city's most violent and drug infested areas, Price (aka Price Stylez) drops his first official single "Dear N***a" (prod. by Confidence) from his TBA album, dropping 2014 on Ill Adrenaline Records.

Upon deciding to focus on his music and not on the streets, Price began performing in local clubs as well as the legendary "Strand Theatre" where many acts from inside and outside of Boston would come to grace the stage.  He also dropped a few mixtapes and made an impression on local hip-hop heads like Mal Moe, who introduced his talents to Confidence (of Rashad/Purpose & Confidence), already a proven producer under the NJ based indie label Ill Adrenaline Records, that released a bunch of critically acclaimed albums and singles by Rashad & Confidence, Purpose & Confidence, 7 G.E.M.S. (Tragic Allies & Tragedy Khadafi), Beneficence, The Legion, The Purist & Roc Marciano, Neek The Exotic, Da Beatminerz and The Regiment. Now armed with authentic and soulful boom-bap production courtesy of Confidence and backing from Ill Adrenaline Records and Soul Tools Entertainment, Price is set to deliver a classic offering to the masses.

Price "Dear N***a" (prod. by Confidence)

Volume 1 was done about 10 years ago with all the usual suspects in terms of SP-1200 (SP-12) production.  Since I've become more and more of an audio file as of late, I thought I'd dig a little deeper into the SP-1200 catalog since I just love that 12 bit, crunchy sound.  Half the fun of the mix was doing the research of production equipment used in the making of different classic joints to confirm SP-1200 usage.  I used the old "double source" system of verifying whether the 1200 was actually used on different songs or albums.  In other words, if I read/heard two separate interviews where a given producer confirmed using the SP-1200 in some shape or form (whether for the whole beat or just the drums) that song became mix eligible.  As with all of my mixes, quite a bit of time and energy went into crafting this labor of love.  Hope you all enjoy!

KVBeats feat. Rashad (of Rashad & Confidence) & DJ Rob Swift
"You Know The Rules"
Produced by KVBeats
Taken off the digital EP "The Breadwinner" (release date: February 18th) and the limited promo vinyl 7" single (only 150 copies) "You Know The Rules / Instrumental" on Ill Adrenaline Records.

After releasing his highly acclaimed debut album "The Résumé" in 2010 with high caliber features like Slum Village, Royce Da 5'9, Mic Geronimo and Oddisee, Danish vinyl enthusiast and producer KVBeats returns with the blazing new single "You Know The Rules", taken off his EP "The Breadwinner" (featuring Torae, Pacewon, Chaundon, Little Vic, a.o.) scheduled to drop February 18th on Ill Adrenaline Records.
"You Know the Rules" is a laid back, piano driven boom-bap banger with none other than Rashad spitting fire on the mic. You might remember the Brooklyn MC as one half of the duo Rashad & Confidence, best known for their already classic album "The Element of Surprise". DJ Rob Swift formerly of the legendary X-Men / X-Ecutioners DJ crew adds some extra flavor to the track by cutting up some classic vocal samples.

## BULLETPROOF CRATES RECORDINGS PRESENT:

DJ SHEEP'S SPRING BREAKZ # 1
Recorded Live: September 9th, 2014

Welcome to the first instalment of this season's mixes titled SPRING BREAKZ!

It's been over a month since I've been in the lab and it took me a little while to get warmed up this evening, so bear with this as  it's my most ambitious effort yet. As the weather starts to heat up, I thought I should get that heat out the crates too! Here's a list of the genres and things that I managed to lock down in 73 minutes of the wheels of steel:

Disco, Funk, Soul, Soundtracks, Reggae, Library Records, Dirty Funky Soul 45s, $1 Bin Classics, Drum Breaks, a * TONNE * of used and unused samples, Private Press secret squirrels, Experimental/Electronic stuff, Blaxploitation radio spots, Chinese TV commercials, Australian Punk, Psych, Fuzz, Jazz, Latin, Video Game music, Stereo Test records, Pinky Violence raers, B-Boy Breaks, an Idris Muhamad (R.I.P.) "extraction" from my man BAPT in Paris, a couple of seldom played Nas joints, a Lakim Shabazz freestyle, some live remix action with Rakim, Fat Joe, 50 Cent, The Game, Alkaholiks and Percee P all gettin' the live "SHEEPMIX" treatment (check around the 34 minute mark). As always, I gave this mix the world treatment with special joints from India, Australia, Fiji, New Zealand, Taiwan, Africa, Israel, South America, Thailand, China, Italy, Russia, Hungary and from all over Europe and the world. David Axelrod sits nicely besides James Last on this mix… Finally, J-Zone laced me with his new "Lunch Breaks" record, so I cut up a handful of those breaks throughout the mix; see if you can tell his drums from the 70's joints, it's tough!

Thanks to everyone who supported the "Winter Bluntz" trilogy, This mix was definitely a test of stamina on the brain and on the decks, please enjoy and all I ask in return is to please keep spreading the good word throughout your networks and holla if you got anything good cookin'; I work and I travel.

Thanks to GRNDGD, egotrip, Unkut, Ryan Proctor, cratesofjr, pipomixes, all the other blogs, listeners, followers and my people worldwide for showin' love, I appreciate you all. peace. DJ Sheep.

Decided to release this mix I've had in my archives for a while. Was never fully happy with it, but alas it's a new year so I'm letting it go.

As the title suggests this mix is a collection of funky, soulful and cinematic songs making good use of string arrangements.

Double disc all vinyl DJ mix packaged in 16 page high quality digibook with extensive liner notes, rare photos, & free download code. Limited to 1000 copies worldwide.

Breaking the Ice is an extended mix of rare—mostly never before heard—Icelandic tracks that are heavily underscored with psych, funk, soul, disco, and in-the-pocket rhythms, all of which are expertly mixed by renowned DJ and turntablist, DJ Platurn. 

The music presented has been compiled through a lifetime of collecting, while others have been passed down through Platurn’s familial, musical roots. 

The packaging includes rare photos, via Platurn's father Magnus Thordarson, and other ephemera from Iceland's small yet vibrant music scene during the late 1960s thru the early 1980s. The release also features extensive liner notes by longtime music journalist David Ma, couching the music’s history as well and the region’s bygone era in which it arose.
