3Turntables and 1 mixer!

A clip for one of my 1st mix tapes i did in late 90's. It's me on 3 turntables. 
Track one is something some early Mo' Wax joint (Name unknown, but i think it's a Dj Shadow joint). Track two is joint i got from Eight Ball records in NYC ( Some jazz not jazz joint) Track three is Boot Camp Click.

All in all it represented the beginning of my love for all things Jazzy. These were the vibes being thrown down in clubs in Lower Manhattan in the early 90's ( the rebirth of acid jazz-some have said)!

Hope you enjoy it!

BCC Vs Some Jazz

Back in the mid 90’s, during the hight of the Acid Jazz scene and the Golden Era of Hip Hop, I took a number of trips to New York City where I visited a number of underground clubs, most notable, The Supper Club, The Cooler & Giant Step / Groove Collective and witnessed the incredible fusion of live dis and musicians jamming together on the same stage from crews like Brooklyn Funk Essentials & Us3!

These 3 turntable mixes are just a taste of those New York State experiences that would begin my life long journey into to combination the relationship between Jazz and Hip Hop.

Hope you enjoy! 

Ps: Please excuse the the parts where the pitch on one turntable decided to go rouge. I Hope you can appreciate the concepts.
