NEEDLE DROPS Volume Thirteen ft. DJ Hydroe & DJ Geenee, DJ D, Marc Hype & Dj Robert Smith

An exploration of the spirits of vintage funk and jazz records which have found their way into contemporary rap music. A cut-up selection of timeless tunes sampled by A Tribe Called Quest, The Beatnuts, MF DOOM, Ice Cube, Cypress Hill, and many more.

I'm not including a tracklisting cause mixes are better when you don't know what song's coming next. If you'd like an ID of any of the songs on here, just ask and I'll answer.

Music Haunted by the Ghosts of Records Past: Vol. I

Cosmo Baker ALL 45s Mix | Eavesdrop Radio 02/27/15

Found this recording from a show me and Tahaj put on back in the early 2000's.....The highlight of the night was having *DJ Ta-shi* (Zulu Nation/Beat Knuckles) and *DJ Shortkut* (Invisibl Scratch Piklz/Beat Junkies/Triple Threat) comin through and rockin' it live on 4 turntables....I ran out of recording discs at the end which explains the abrupt cut off.....

As you can tell from the energy they're puttin down, they were f*cking rocking the place!!!.....people were going bonkers!!!  It was amazing to see their DJ communication and veteran skills in person....still inspires me to this day.....Enjoy...

Dusty Donuts #10 Anthology Mix

Turntablist Extraordinaire @dj-yoda-uk graced the Rabbit Hole's 'FUNKINGHAM PALACE' - performing a bespoke 'GET DOWN  DJ SET' filled with Funk / Hip-Hop and lots of samples!

"Here's a live recording of my set at Glastonbury 2017, keeping it pretty tightly themed to The Get Down - i.e. early 1980s NYC block party music! This was great fun - loved sticking to the theme, and by 20 minutes in it felt more like we were in the Bronx in 1984 by than a tent in a field in Somerset! Excuse some of the dodgy mixing moments, this was all live! Enjoy, and wear full adidas tracksuit to appreciate entirely  :) "

DJ YODA (THE GET DOWN DJ SET)- Live from The Rabbit Hole's 'Funkingham Palace' - June 2017

Starting off as a 35 minute competition entry for the 2017 Shindig festival, I decided to extend the mix with some of the toughest, baddest F. U. N. K. breaks in my collection, resulting in a worthy follow up to the 'Raw Elements (Part One)' tape I dropped earlier this year.

Part Two is a tribute to all the current day DJs and acts that have inspired me over the past two decades; people like Boca 45, Smoove, Jorun Bombay, Jim Sharp, DJ Format, Nick Bike, Southpaw Chop, Marc Hype, Paul Nice, Phil Most Chill, Freqnik & WDRE, Soopasoul (and of course the pioneers before them).

Nothing overly technical going on here, just an hour and a bit of booming funk, neck-snapping beats and b-boy breaks.

Raw Elements (Part Two) (2017)

Whilst having a hard drive clearout I found a bunch of my early mixes that I hadn't listened to in a long time. Some have stood the test of time pretty well, others - not so much :)

This first one was based on a mix I originally recorded in 2002 for a 'Bedroom DJ' competition, then re-recorded in 2004 to tidy up a few bits I was unhappy with (when I moved to Exeter and was using this on CD to get gigs). It's the mixtape that started it all for me :)

"The Payback Mix (Pt. 1)" is still one of my favourites - an hour of non-stop heavy hip hop, ragga, and classic beats and breaks on an early Ninja Tune tip. I couldn't scratch for shit back then, but the mixing is tight. This is from back in the days when I used a portable minidisc player alongside my 1210's to drop samples(!)

More (recent) stuff is on the way. Please download and share.

Heavy Stylus: An explosive amalgamation of Jamaican roots, hip hop beats, heavy soul breaks and blaxploitation ghetto-funk.

I’ve been rocking funk/soul/beats/hiphop/roots for around 20 years in various bars and clubs across the South West, and have supported a wide range of acts and artists such including Jelly Jazz, Boca 45, Andy Smith, Quantic, Craig Charles, DJ Food, Bonobo, Gilles Peterson, Ugly Duckling and DJ Format.

Although I started as a vinyl-only DJ in Bristol, these days I use a pair of battle-scarred Pioneer CDJs as my weapons of choice. I’m currently a resident (of 11 years) at the Angel Bar on Queen Street, and in the past have held Exeter-based residencies at The Monkey Suit, Timepiece, Dr. Inks and Verve (now Urban Underground), as well as DJing regularly for Hold it Down.

For bookings / remix/edits and hook-ups contact James via DM here.

(Oh, and in addition to rocking the ones-and-twos, James Monkman is also one half of Exeter-based independent videogame development studio RGCD.DEV, hence the goofy twitter tag).
