Welcome to an epic journey into the vast archives of the great producer, J Dilla (a.k.a. Jay Dee). This 2.5-hour magnum opus digs deep into Dilla's "Batches(1995–1999)"—his working beat collections —and unearths the truly unreleased and "Barely Surfaced" genius.

By reconstructing these grooves into extended sessions, often running for 7 to 10 minutes each, this mix is a rare and invaluable resource for studying the rhythmic genius that profoundly influenced the modern beat scene.

Pay close attention to the unique swing, bass placement, hi-hat texture, and overall atmospheric drum sound—elements that define Dilla's innovative rhythm science.

    🥁 Rhythmic Science for Producers: Dilla's signature drum texture, hi-hat patterns, and the ambient quality of his loops are still full of rhythmic aesthetics that modern beat music producers must study.

    📚 The Roots of Lofi Hip Hop: From the perspective of commercial Lofi Hip Hop (beats to relax/study to), the "philosophy of the one loop" and his innovative bass placement offer countless discoveries and fresh inspiration.

Put on your headphones and immerse yourself in the magical swing and enduring passion of J Dilla’s unheard work.

Dilla's Batch | Barely Surfaced (1995–1999 Underrated Extended Mix)

Yo, we thought it ended, we thought it broke, Yet consciousness moves—it never chokes. Not just the grave, not just the night, It steps beyond—into light.

We ain't fading, we ain't gone, We rise again—we move on.

Yo, they told us time runs dry, Yet galaxies shift—stars don’t die. Matter folds, atoms bend, But thought expands—it won’t end.

Flesh may fade, bones may break, Yet memory hums—it stays awake. The mind don’t stop, it finds the streams, It weaves the flow—it builds the dreams.

Yo, death ain't real, it’s just a turn, The fire dims—but still it burns. Energy moves, thought takes flight, We cross the gate—embrace the light.

We don’t fade, we don’t fall, We rise beyond—we hear the call. Not just flesh, not just sound, Consciousness moves—it’s never bound.

Yo, imagine this—next breath past time, A universe born—a rhythm climbs. No weight remains, no chains survive, Just the pulse—conscious, alive.

It ain’t decay, it ain’t defeat, It’s just the step—the minds repeat. One life lived, yet many fold, Infinity waits—untold.

Yo, rebirth moves, the path resets, Yet we return—never forget. No true loss, no final stone, Just new forms—we walk alone.

Yo, we walk the edge, we see the sight, Yet past the gate—still burns the light. Not the end, not erased, But evolution—replaced.

The vision grows, the echoes sound, Yet no one stops—we ain’t bound. Step beyond, take the breath, Wake again—life past death.

We don’t fade, we don’t fall, We rise beyond—we hear the call. Not just flesh, not just sound, Consciousness moves—it’s never bound.

Yo, what fades is just a phase, Yet the story always stays. New forms rise, new minds breathe, Yet the same pulse—beneath the seas.

We don't vanish, we don't cease, We step ahead—we find peace. Call it life, call it gone, Yet it circles—it moves on.

Consciousness ain’t just dust in wind, It’s the cycle—it starts again.

The Rebirth of Consciousness

CHRISTMAS 2025 — MAICSCHÖN
by Brent Schön AI

Christmas 2025 — MaicSchön is a futuristic Christmas music vision where imagination, celebration, and human spirit merge into a living dream of Heaven on Earth.

Set in a cinematic re-imagining of Christmas night, the album captures a world where cities glow with harmony, streets become rivers of light, and music carries people beyond routine into wonder. Festive melodies blend with modern dance, ambient warmth, and cinematic emotion—creating a Christmas soundscape that feels both timeless and ahead of its time.

MaicSchön represents magical creation through Schön—the idea that beauty, joy, and peace are not distant miracles, but creative acts we choose together. Each track is designed to feel expansive and uplifting, turning Christmas into an experience rather than a moment on a calendar.

This album is not about nostalgia alone—it’s about what Christmas can become:

A shared atmosphere of kindness

A celebration without division

A future where art, technology, and heart move as one

Christmas 2025 — MaicSchön is a musical invitation to pause, feel, and remember that the greatest miracle of Christmas is not something that arrives from the sky—but something we create through music, connection, and imagination.

🎄✨
A new Christmas sound.
A new Christmas vision.
A Schön Christmas.

Solid Steel (2nd June) It's a special Stones Throw takeover this week, with label founder Peanut Butter Wolf heading up the show exactly 20 years after he first appeared on Solid Steel in 1997 (which you can also hear at http://solidsteel.net/broadcasts/1069), followed by jazz drummer and producer extraordinaire Karriem Riggins.

In Hour 2 it's Karriem Riggins, a multi-instrumentalist, DJ and producer who has worked with Kanye West, Kaytranada, Common, Erykah Badu, Slum Village, Talib Kweli and The Roots. He is the son of jazz composer and keyboardist Emmanuel Riggins (who played alongside jazz guitarist Grant Green) and got hooked on the drums watching his father’s jam sessions in their garage. Raiding his parents’ record collection was like a portal to crate digging, a prelude to his becoming a brilliant musician and budding beat conductor. His mix showcases those skills perfectly with a heap of exclusive beats alongside tracks from Thad Jones, EddieHazel, Little Beaver, Common and J Dilla. His second solo album 'Headnod Suite' was recently released on Stones Throw and he had this to say about his mix;
‘I often make mixes for myself to spark inspiration. I decided to let this one out to the world with hopes it will inspire someone.’
