Plug Two (De La Soul)Tribute Twitch Session-February 13 2023

DE LA SOUL TRIBUTE MIX (RIP TRUGOY)

In celebration of Hip Hop's 50th year, we've teamed up with London based ‘Classic Material’ to present a chronologically themed series of mixtapes celebrating the history of recorded Rap music, mixed by Chris Read. This fourth bonus mix follows last month's Hip House round up with a collection of Hip Hop tracks influenced by the New Jack Swing sound of the late 80s and early 90s. Featured tracks include production from some of the producers central to the New Jack Swing sound – Teddy Riley, Eddie F, and some from those better known for a more classic Hip Hop style who also dabbled in the sound during the era – Marley Marl, Pete Rock and many more. The cover artwork references the classic Uptown Records label sleeve.

The theme of his new collection is called "I 'Smile' LA. So in trying to stay to theme of his new work, I tried to combine music that represents LA as well as in Slick's taste in music. Peep out the tracklist below & enjoy the vibes...."Smiles Everyone, Smiles....!"

DJ Jazzy Jeff (Born-Day) Tribute-Recorded Live On TWITCH

gone away ft. DANGER

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...

POOKY - LACES OUT MIX

Found this little gem on pipomixes a few years back, no trace of it on Soundcloud, so I thought why not spread it around. This needs to be heard. The supremely talented DJ Shortkut of the Invisbl Skratch Piklz lays down an amazing mix of original tracks reconfigured into the hip-hop tracks that sampled them. 

It's only just occurred to me that subliminal inspiration for the jungle reconstruction/tribute aspect of my Eclectic Sample mixes came in part from this guy. Thanks, Shortkut.

DJ Shortkut: Rekonstructed Elements

A time when only Kurtis Blow, Whodini, Fearless Four and Jimmy Spicer had major record deals, you could get got for your fat gold chain, and any visuals of hip hop culture on TV was new and exciting like your brand new Atari video game
