This week's rules and samples were provided by @gypsy-mamba of the @rootnotecollective

BPM: 125

RULES:

This week is about producers being "ROOTED" in their endeavors to put their signature sound inside the track--find the thing that is unique to their production and let it show in the beat.

The only rule is that we keep the tracks at 125bpm and that they use the original sample by Gypsy Mamba to create and original beat.

## BULLETPROOF CRATES RECORDINGS PRESENT:

DJ SHEEP'S SPRING BREAKZ # 1
Recorded Live: September 9th, 2014

Welcome to the first instalment of this season's mixes titled SPRING BREAKZ!

It's been over a month since I've been in the lab and it took me a little while to get warmed up this evening, so bear with this as  it's my most ambitious effort yet. As the weather starts to heat up, I thought I should get that heat out the crates too! Here's a list of the genres and things that I managed to lock down in 73 minutes of the wheels of steel:

Disco, Funk, Soul, Soundtracks, Reggae, Library Records, Dirty Funky Soul 45s, $1 Bin Classics, Drum Breaks, a * TONNE * of used and unused samples, Private Press secret squirrels, Experimental/Electronic stuff, Blaxploitation radio spots, Chinese TV commercials, Australian Punk, Psych, Fuzz, Jazz, Latin, Video Game music, Stereo Test records, Pinky Violence raers, B-Boy Breaks, an Idris Muhamad (R.I.P.) "extraction" from my man BAPT in Paris, a couple of seldom played Nas joints, a Lakim Shabazz freestyle, some live remix action with Rakim, Fat Joe, 50 Cent, The Game, Alkaholiks and Percee P all gettin' the live "SHEEPMIX" treatment (check around the 34 minute mark). As always, I gave this mix the world treatment with special joints from India, Australia, Fiji, New Zealand, Taiwan, Africa, Israel, South America, Thailand, China, Italy, Russia, Hungary and from all over Europe and the world. David Axelrod sits nicely besides James Last on this mix… Finally, J-Zone laced me with his new "Lunch Breaks" record, so I cut up a handful of those breaks throughout the mix; see if you can tell his drums from the 70's joints, it's tough!

Thanks to everyone who supported the "Winter Bluntz" trilogy, This mix was definitely a test of stamina on the brain and on the decks, please enjoy and all I ask in return is to please keep spreading the good word throughout your networks and holla if you got anything good cookin'; I work and I travel.

Thanks to GRNDGD, egotrip, Unkut, Ryan Proctor, cratesofjr, pipomixes, all the other blogs, listeners, followers and my people worldwide for showin' love, I appreciate you all. peace. DJ Sheep.

Spring Breakz: Episode I

Made in 2009 as a demo for Eternal Eden 2, a RPG project by BlossomSoft. Discontinued.

Colors (from Eternal Eden 2 project) | 2009

Composed in 2010 with samples from "Super Castlevania IV" & "Castlevania: Vampire's Kiss". Some cameos from 'Bloody Tears' & Ryu's theme from Street Fighter II. Uses way more polyphony than a classic SNES track, this was for fun.

Belmont's Return (SNES samples) | 2010

Made in 2003 in Impulse Tracker using samples from the SNES game "Ogre Batle : The March of the Black Queen".

Mercenaries (Ogre Battle samples) | 2003

BGM for the AGDQ 2015 promo video.

"Big Blue" from F-Zero
"Elec Man" from Mega Man
"Title Theme" from The Legend of Zelda

Awesome Games Done Quick 2015 - Promo Video Track | 2014

Regardless of whether or not you're a hip hop head, @DJQBert needs no introduction. (But for you young bucks unfamiliar with the living legend, simply type DJ into the search bar on YouTube and hit enter. We guarantee you'll find at least one video of him showcasing his mind-blowing skills, within the first page of results.)

Today, Mass Appeal brings you the premiere of DJ QBert's 'JELLYFISH LAZER FACE,' a recap of his "Extraterrestrium: The Guided Space Tour," which ripped through the U.S. this past fall.

The mixtape has been described to us as "an odyssey of future bass music," and features tracks from Mr. Carmack, El-P, LOUDPVCK. QBert also delivers a few surprises from his upcoming instrumental release, Extramentals Vol. 1.

Stream and download 'JELLYFISH LAZER FACE' below, and keep your ears locked in for the SXPXLZ snippet QBert teases at the end of the insane set.
