Running Thru The Breaks Vol.5

Here’s a short tape for the start of summer. I was filing records this past week and figured why not digitize a few before putting them back in the stacks, then slap together a new mixtape?

So here’s a 23 minute break mix with a few goofy vocal samples and accapellas thrown on top – I did it on Serato but it’s all original wax from my personal stash. For the beat-heads, hopefully there’s more surprises in here than not.

It was fun to cut it up. Maybe I’ll do a few more. Hope you enjoy.

Bongholio Iglesias - Favorite Samples and Breaks
Being part of an endangered species makes a gorilla wonder how to preserve his very own heritage. That's why jet-setting super-ape Bongholio Iglesias felt the urge to treasure his own musical DNA. So he dug deep through the stacks of old records at his Malibu beach-house to combine the two main ingredients of what a) makes your head nod and b) gets the señoritas to groove. 
From the good ol' days of radioshows and mixtapes, here are the gorillas favorite super-sweeet samples mixed with crispy classic drumbreaks, that made an entire era golden.
So grab your boombox, get your tapes ready, put your finger on the button and press record when it starts!

Vol.184 The Break Beats

I am very lucky to have been DJ'ing for so long that I have been able to move around the musical landscape, and passionately follow and play so many different styles over the years - due to my love of all music new, old and yet to be imagined. This has probably made it quite difficult at times managing (or mis-managing) my DJ career - as promoters, clubbers, the media and society in general likes everything to be neatly pigeonholed. A friend of mine once said to me 'whatever style you play does not really matter, as you always give it that Chad Jackson flavour'. Well, I do hope that is true, and I have strived to stay true to my musical explorations over the years, rightly or wrongly. In the mid to late 90's THE sounds for me were Progressive House and the mighty Nu Skool Breaks....so here is a set from my recent gig at Encapsulated Energy in Hastings recently. Colin, the promoter, told me before the event that he wanted me to play some of that type of stuff, which featured on an old cassette mixtape I released years ago called 'Tribal Breaks'. So I pulled out all of the tunes that I used to play when I was resident at 'Twister'....the Nu Skool event that we used to run at Turnmills in London. High energy stuff all the way....with a couple of choice classics thrown in for good measure....man, I miss Nu Skool...it was funky!! Also featuring occasional MC action, for that real old skool flavour. I do hope you enjoy it as much as we did on the night. Feel free to like, share, and generally do what you wish. xx Chad

Mista Sinista Presents Break U Off

Rare Breaks & Funk By Lord Sear

Grandmaster Roc Raida - 52 Beats (2008)

Live Breaks Mix using all original pressings, 3 turntables, 2 mixers. Performed by DJ Zeph & Imperial. recorded live to DAT. mastered by Rafi at Studio 45. 
This is not the original cover. Real cover coming soon. I'd never seen this cover until i did a google search for our mix....gotta love the interwebs....

I Read a couple of blog posts about this one. SOME  of the comments I'm not sure I agreed with. All thought part 2 was a success for different reasons, part one offers some cool shit i'd like to point out.
This was recorded Live!! not many other mixes, especially featuring breaks are done that way. Sure theres better technical DJ's, and DJ's with better collections, but we kinda brought a good balance of both to the tables (haha) , but more importantly TRANSITIONS!! Neither of us are Q-Berts, but DJ Imperial isn't far behind. His cuts are so dope, Oh my god, and funkier than most big name dj's. The selection is what it is, and we definately weren't above playing records that weren't super rare, especially compared to a Shadow/Cut Chemist mix. We set out to provide a vibe, and i feel like that was more important here. both Imperial and I spent the most amount of time deciding on what to play. But the transitions, whew!! definately more considered than other popular breaks mixes of the day. if you listen to most you can definately tell the transitions were secondary, like a Muro mix. Where as here you can really tell its all part of a story, and seamless/interesting transitions are telling it. And again Live!!

We really had a great time putting this together, and it reflects a great time period when Imperial lived with me for a summer in SF, and we worked on music as much as possible. DJ Paul Nice, our roomie at the time, was driven crazy while we were putting it together, thanks for putting up with us Paulie!! We got a good amount of recognition when it came out. Allthough only pressed up in small numbers, and sold at exclusive locations, it was always sold out and on re order...earning an Amoeba records Staff pick of the year, and supportive comments like "better than [Shadow & Cut Chemist's] brainfreeze'. 

We used three Technics 1200's, one Gemini Scratch Master (really!!), one Vestax 06pro, Ortofon Needles, A Sony DAT recorder...don't remember how we combined the signals, this was circa 1998!!!

Break Builders Vol 1 part 1 ---DJ Zeph & DJ Imperial

Break Builders Vol 2
by DJ Zeph and DJ Platurn, Feat DJ Teeko

this is Vol 2 in a series of original breaks mixes. 
After finishing Vol 1, DJ Imperial and I had this idea to do a volume 2 using a sampler, and really blurring the lines between what was produced and what was played. When Imperial moved back to Sweden, and using a sampler seemed to be unnecessary with the editing options in what was then new- protools, I stepped up to do Vol 2 w/ one of my favorite DJ's and crate diggers.....DJ Platurn!!! 

Since the previous mix was predominantly live, and with this new concept, Platurn and I found that we were not in jeopardy of reinventing the wheel. We met up, and came to some conclusions...we wanted it to be B Boy/Girl friendly, we werent going to limit what we used to any category, and that we wanted to feature one of our favorite DJ's with the illest cuts DJ Teeko.

This format proved to be really hot, and i dont think we were the only ones to do something like this, but we were definately one of the first, and we were really proud of the end result. Being able to extend and overlap breaks indefinately really is a great way to approach a breaks mix. This is really proven in moments like the Olympic Runners kazoo mashup, or the Ramsey Lewis rock blend. By not limiting the selection to any categories we get edits of newer releases of classics like the Kenny Dope/J5 and its monster drums intro, but without all the excessive parts (the song lol). We also get DJ Teeko just murdering the cuts in moments like the Shadow/Cut Chemist numbers redo.

We had a lot of fun putting this down, and hope you enjoy listening/dancing...
