I lived in New Zealand for four years over a decade ago, and totally missed the boat on Drum & Bass. I've rediscovered it during the pandemic with an open mind, and now I kinda love the more liquid, funky, soulful, and vocal aspects of it. I mixed this one live in my studio in November 2021, took a couple takes due to a power outage from 6" of rain. Hope you enjoy!

"And then there's music that's BORING. Right? And house to me falls into BORING music, because it just loops for ages, and doesn't even drop, d'ya know what I mean?" - the Legendary DJ Beats & MC Grindah

"Yo, everybody's goin retro, right"
-Digable Planets (Jimi Diggin' Cats)

A studio mix of my favorite 1990s hip hop tracks from Eric B & Rakim, Gang Starr, Pharcyde, Sinistar Voicez, Godfather Don, Smif n Wessun, WuTang, Tribe, and many more. Thanks to my friend and studio wizard Ron Levy for help with mixes, easter eggs, programming advice, and mastering.

	1.	Dance wit the speaker til you hear it blow
	2.	Cause life ain't nothing but a good groove / A good mixtape to put you in the right mood
	3.	MC's, y'all got to work for the mic / Zombies, do it from dusk to the night
	4.	The Ol Dirty Bastard straight from the Brooklyn Zoo
	5.	Dazed with the quickness
	6.	On the microphone you know that I'm one of the best yet
	7.	A forty and a blunt, that's all she really wants
	8.	Wonder what would Trane say wonder what my pop say
	9.	Chasin dreams like them kids from california
	10.	Loungin', loungin', peace to Brooklyn where I live
	11.	Wanna talk girls? You can’t follow this—I’ve been / Through more skins than the average dermatologist
	12.	I'm energetic, poetic, athletic, with good credit / So just move like I'm simon and I said it
	13.	Let me hit it from the back, girl I won't catch a hernia / Bust off on your couch, now you got Seamen's Furniture
	14.	Two minds steadily manifested on thoughts
	15.	Mind holds the weight, rhymes free the mind in time 
	16.	The mic is a Drano, volcanoes erupting
	17.	Yeah, now check your stove top before you take a listen / And make sure beans don't burn in the kitchen
	18.	Thinkin of a master plan / ‘cause ain't nuthin but sweat inside my hand
	19.	So, when you see me on the real, forming like Voltron
	20.	No missions impossible ask Tom Cruise 
	21.	Gaze into the sky and measure planets by parallax / Check out the retrograde motion, kill the notion
	22.	My old man standing yelling good god, almighty / Use your condom, take sips of the brew
	23.	And this is how the story goes
	24.	You can't make loot, when your moms is smokin' up the product
	25.	Down the hall I'm kickin' it in the back of the school eating chicken at 3 / Wondering, "Why is everybody always pickin' on me?
	26.	Hon you need to get your ass on the dancefloor this minute 
	27.	Her neck was smelling sweeter / Than a plate of yams with extra syrup

Give Me Some Wood and I'll Build You a Cabinet (90s Hip Hop Mixtape)

Photographer and house music lover based out of Truckee, CA, with home being Lana`i City, Hawai`i. I like volcanoes, skiing, and Hawaiian food.  A long time ago I was a volcano scientist. Tried to be an astronaut...no dice.

NOTE: I refuse to pay SoundCloud $ every month, and am thus very limited on the mixes I can put up here. Please visit mixcloud.com/grantkaye for all of my mixes from over the years. It is ridiculous that SoundCloud uses Bots to do copyright takedowns on DJ mixes and I therefore will NEVER give them $ until they change their system to that used by Mixcloud - where DJ mixes are allowed and producers are paid royalties directly.
