DJ SHEEP: SUMMER SPLIFFZ: VOLUME 1

Recorded Live: Tuesday 21st July 2015

Here's the first of a new trilogy of mixes goin' out to all the diggaz in the Northern Hemisphere enjoin' that summer heat in and out of the crates.

This time 'round I'm bringing it back to basics with classic hip-hop samples and breaks from the "golden-era" of rap sampling with a few splashes of the unknown in-between: funk, soul, jazz, soundtracks, library joints and drum breaks from all corners of the globe, cut up on the 1's and 2's in one take.

Sorry for the delay on the mix tip, appreciate all the spins. You can show support by copping a USB stick full of mixes or digital files over at http://djsheep.bigcartel.com.

Shouts to egotrip, pipomixes, cratesofjr, GRNDGD, Ryan Proctor, Snoop God, DJ ADA, Cut Chemist and Boogie Monster. Next gig is out in Bali, Indonesia on the 29th of August on the beach for Ku De Ta's old school block party with Rob Swift, Mike Who, Felix Da Housecat and more. If you're out there, don't miss it! Summer Spliffz: Volume 2 droppin' real soon.

peace. DJ Sheep

Diggers Dozen #1: The Ethnic Crate
RECORDED LIVE: Sunday 16th March, 2014

Here's a new trilogy of mixes from the "Diggers Dozen" event that I put on in Brisbane, Australia back in 2014. Each of these themed mixes each feature 12 top-tier records hand picked from the Bulletproof Crates played out live on 2 turntables, mixer and a Kaossilator.

This first mix is the "Ethnic Crate" featuring some off the wall digs dug up in dusty record stores, flea markets & junk shops in the depths of Israel, Lebanon, Japan, Germany, Thailand, Belgium, Australia and of course, the US. Expect some heavy drum breaks with some exotic rock, psych & jazz sounds in the mix.

The next mix in the trilogy will drop week and continue this theme with 12 x 7" 45s.
