DJ Sheep: Biz Markie Megamix: 2011 Australian Tour Promo
Recorded Live: Friday 3rd June 2011

It's unfortunately timely that I'm re-sharing this mix. We truly lost a great one today, Biz Markie, the cornerstone of humour in hip-hop with his larger than life cartoon-ish personality and demeanour. The B-I-Z's discography, legacy and history in hip-hop ran deep and his crates and music knowledge ran even deeper. 

I feel extremely humbled & blessed in hindsight to have spent time with Biz Markie in Australia, having both shared the stage with him in Sydney as well as spending a couple of days hanging out in Brisbane together with his brother DJ Cool V. We did what Biz does best and hit Chinatown in Brisbane for Chinese food, went diggin' for records and vintage toys and nerded out for many hours sharing, disecting, politicin' and listening to raer breakbeats, grooves, raps, acapellas and stems. It's one of the very few times I was absolutely geeked out meeting one of my heroes. There's been too many times when I've learned  that my childhood rap heroes are actually jerks, even more-so with the advent of social media. There are too many hilarious stories to tell and memories of that tour which will have to wait for another time.

This short but sweet 14-minute promo "mega-mix" was done in one take on two decks and a mixer at the request of the promoter of the down under tour. I kept it simple and just blended 7 of my favourite Biz tracks. There's obviously some deeper diggin' to be done in Biz's extensive catalog and I'm sure there'll be some great tribute mixes forthcoming but I kept this one as is because it's from a time and a place that hopefully some others can appreciate.

Nobody Beats the Biz. Never. Rest in Peace and my most genuine condolences to his family and loved ones.

peace. DJ Sheep

Pseudo Intellectuals – Pizza Money [LP]

Following the release of his 2nd album of 2021 (False Conscious Liberation) Tommy Evans tag teams with producer Beat Finder General to unleash Falling Upwards, an elite-level showcase of beats, bass and bars. 70Six Remix is the first single off the project, a mid-tempo groove that reworks a TE classic from his iconic Collateral Beauty LP. BFG cooks up an elegant bounce replete with Studio 54 strings for Tommy to glide over with his trademark conversational flow dropping tongue-in-cheek lyrics referencing seventies icons from Pam Grier to Huggy Bear. Emerging French-Malagasy vocalist Malala laces the chorus with her soulful vocals: “70Six living the high life...!"

After the success of the Dig For Victory EP (Album of the month in HHC) Soundsci's original formation of Audessey, Jonny Cuba and Ollie Teeba got straight back to the lab to work on new material. The chemistry sparked between fellow GA resident U-George (Hemisphere) who featured on 'The Question?' and Audessey continued and the group expanded. The crew had been fans of Oxygen (SPOX / Sputnik Brown) and what started as a feature on one track quickly turned into two then three tracks with the emcees building on their relationships, Ox is now a permanent fixture and lead to the In A Flash / Class In Session 7". Production is handled again by Jonny and Ollie, with the only outside production from Jaisu (Sha Stimuli, Maffew Ragazino etc) on the track 'Change'. Guests John Robinson (Scienz of Life, Sol Uprising, Lewis Parker etc), Cadence (Raw Produce, Alternate Reality) and Ghettosocks (Twin Peaks) have been carefully chosen due to skill rather than 'who's hot' (although expect the Drake collab early 2036). No Sleep Nigel handled all the mixing and the album was mastered by Simon @ The Exchange direct from 1/4" reel to reel to the lacquers giving the vinyl it's unique, warm sound, the double LP is definitely the preferred listening method. Finishing the album off we have the incredible design skills of Mr Krum (Cold Rock Stuff / Vinyl Veterans) who worked directly with the group on both the standard and limited bundle. His work speaks for itself but having designed covers for DJ Format, Lord Finesse, Paul Nice, Grap Luva and more he's someone you should keep an eye on.

Prepare to be blown away... (CD liner notes follow)

Once again, DJ Revolution invites you to explore more breaks in the thrilling new world of Ultra Hi-Fidelity stereophonic sound. These classic drum beats, rare loops and all around funky sounds come to life like never before at the hands of one of the most respected dj's around. This record will dazzle your eardrums while demonstrating the differences between typical stereo recording and ones presented in Hi-Fidelity. In this volume, Revolution cuts up and re-arranges some of the sickest breaks ever laid to tape and continues to flex his world renowned turntable skillz while slicing raw breaks taken from Funk45's, Soul, Rock, music libraries and classic soundtracks. Allow yourself to become educated in stereo sound as you experience briliant highs and speaker-busting basslines with no boring, drawn out vocal versions to slow your mood down. This album has also been recorded to meet the highest industry standards and quality is assured from start to finish. Mixed and mastered by Revolution at the prestigious Millenia studios with the use of new futuristic "computer" technology that delivers a more realistic sound at increased levels of volume. You're sure to enjoy this exclusive collection of tunes pieced together and manipulated by a true turntable virtuoso. Although this album will sound excellent played back on any source, you will be able to enjoy the full dynamic range of hi-fidelity on a higher end stereo system consisting of two or more speakers played at maximum volume.
