PICK UP STIX VOL 1 (MIXTAPE)

I recently picked up an AKAI MPX-16 and have been having way too much fun on it messing about with sampling old records and mashing up percussion heavy loops. I got a groove going this evening whilst recording into CoolEdit Pro and after a heavy cut 'n' paste session ended up with this filthy lo-fi 114BPM breakbeat track.

Rock! Rock!

Heavy Stylus - Congo Rock (2018)

We had a great response to our last Biggie mix so we moved Big Poppa to the front of the line for an encore performance. This time we’re spotlighting “Party and Bullshit”, his debut single off the soundtrack to the comedy film, Who’s The Man? We’ve paired his distinctive flow with “Calling The Shots”; a hard funk groove with tough afrobeat horns courtesy of German ensemble, The Mighty Mocambos. Enjoy!

Note: We’re going to be working on other music projects for awhile so the funk mixes will be coming out less frequently; hopefully bi-weekly instead of our frenetic weekly pace. Thanks for the continued support and encouragement! It definitely makes a difference ;-)

Source Material:
BIG “Party And Bullshit” (Party And Bullshit 12” | 1993 | Uptown Records)
The Mighty Mocambos  “Calling The Shots” (The Future Is Here | 2011 | Legere Recordings)
