J.PERIOD Presents… The Legacy Of JB

Soul Circle Radio w/ DJ Nu-Mark 

Nu-Mark began DJing at the age of 13 in Los Angeles. Over the last two decades, he has amassed an immense collection of rare records from around the world.  Nu-Mark’s refined music production and live showmanship regard him as one of the most innovative DJ’s in music culture.
 
As a member of the critically acclaimed, gold-selling Hip-Hop outfit, Jurassic 5, DJ Nu-Mark graced the group with precision production and cutting edge stage routines.  Best known for his production on the raw anthem “What’s Golden” such creativity only hinted at his imagination since Jurassic 5’s breakup in 2006.  In 2013, J5 reunited with a staggering performance at Coachella which featured a gigantic turntable designed and manipulated by Nu-Mark.
 
Nu introduced himself as a solo artist in 2004 with Blend Crafters, an instrumental EP created in the spirit of allowing beats to speak for themselves.  Later that year Hands On, was released as a mix CD that featured Mc’s rhyming in different languages from around the world.    He has remixed songs for Nas & Damian Marley, created tracks for Saturday Night Live’s Lonely Island and constructed the Tropical Funk mix Take Me With You.  Most significantly, after more than three years of brainstorming, experimenting and collaborating, he’s released his critically acclaimed debut album Broken Sunlight, which reveals his influences and innovations into a jaw dropping collection of heart felt music featuring Aloe Blacc, Charles Bradley, Quantic, Large Professor, Bumpy Knuckles, A-Skillz, Tiron & Ayomari and J-Live.
 
Recently Nu-Mark has been widely recognized for filling his entire stage with children’s music toys and playing them as instruments. This Kids Toy Set went viral when Nu-Mark compiled his performances from around the world in his DVD Nu-Conduit.
 
To date, Nu-Mark has been featured in the critically acclaimed documentaries Scratch, KeepinTime, Coachella: The Movie,Rock the Bells – The Documentary and Mac Grubber.  In 2013 Nu-Mark created original beats and co-scored both Battle Of The Year starring Chris Brown and Ride Along staring Ice Cube and Kevin Hart.
 
Today Nu-Mark has completed a collaborative album with Slimkid3 of Pharcyde which features songs that include Murs, Del, Diamond D, Darondo and J-Live, set to be released on Delicious Vinyl in the summer of 2014.  Stay tuned!

Kenny Dope April Weekend "Hip Hop Funk Soul Funk Breaks 2012 Mix"

Marvin Gaye is, in my humble estimation, the greatest singer there ever was.  What range this man had, from some of the most important protest songs ever created, to all that babymaking music, to some seriously slept-on disco-funk. Not to mention his ACTUAL vocal range.  So really there wasn't a better choice with whom to launch The ReMix Tapes, my new mix series featuring musical icons and their best tracks reworked with a little more beat. Let's get it on.

Track Listing:

01 – What's Going On (Cole Medina Remix)
02 – Inner City Blues (P.e.ø Edit)
03 – I Want You (John Morales Remix)
04 – Just Like Music (Stefonix Remix)
05 – Let's Get It On (Deejay Klawdynho Extended Mix)
06 – Heavy Love Affair (DJ CMan Edit)
07 – You (Whiskey Barons Rework)
08 – Doggone Soul (Alekkz Bootleg)
09 – A Funky Disco Reincarnation (Jay Airiness Retouch)
10 – Funk Me (Nelson Leeroy Remix)
11 – If This World Were Mine (Chris Madem Remix)
12 – Pride & Joy (Red Astaire Refix)
13 – Sexual Healing (JBROWN Remix)
14 – Calypso Blues (The Gaff Remix)
15 – Got To Give It Up (Morsy Mix)
16 – I Heard It Through The Grapevine (Arts and Lohr Remix)
17 – Rockin' After Midnight (Ruckus Roboticus Remix)
18 – Ain't No Mountain High Enough w/ Tammi Terrell (mikeandtess Edit)

Track-Marked Version

The ReMixTapes Vol 1: Marvin Gaye

Stretch Armstrong on His NY Sh!t

Live Breaks Mix using all original pressings, 3 turntables, 2 mixers. Performed by DJ Zeph & Imperial. recorded live to DAT. mastered by Rafi at Studio 45. 
This is not the original cover. Real cover coming soon. I'd never seen this cover until i did a google search for our mix....gotta love the interwebs....

I Read a couple of blog posts about this one. SOME  of the comments I'm not sure I agreed with. All thought part 2 was a success for different reasons, part one offers some cool shit i'd like to point out.
This was recorded Live!! not many other mixes, especially featuring breaks are done that way. Sure theres better technical DJ's, and DJ's with better collections, but we kinda brought a good balance of both to the tables (haha) , but more importantly TRANSITIONS!! Neither of us are Q-Berts, but DJ Imperial isn't far behind. His cuts are so dope, Oh my god, and funkier than most big name dj's. The selection is what it is, and we definately weren't above playing records that weren't super rare, especially compared to a Shadow/Cut Chemist mix. We set out to provide a vibe, and i feel like that was more important here. both Imperial and I spent the most amount of time deciding on what to play. But the transitions, whew!! definately more considered than other popular breaks mixes of the day. if you listen to most you can definately tell the transitions were secondary, like a Muro mix. Where as here you can really tell its all part of a story, and seamless/interesting transitions are telling it. And again Live!!

We really had a great time putting this together, and it reflects a great time period when Imperial lived with me for a summer in SF, and we worked on music as much as possible. DJ Paul Nice, our roomie at the time, was driven crazy while we were putting it together, thanks for putting up with us Paulie!! We got a good amount of recognition when it came out. Allthough only pressed up in small numbers, and sold at exclusive locations, it was always sold out and on re order...earning an Amoeba records Staff pick of the year, and supportive comments like "better than [Shadow & Cut Chemist's] brainfreeze'. 

We used three Technics 1200's, one Gemini Scratch Master (really!!), one Vestax 06pro, Ortofon Needles, A Sony DAT recorder...don't remember how we combined the signals, this was circa 1998!!!

I always wanted to do wheelies in BMX but unfortunately I never did more than six turns of the cranks. Despite that, I'm not too bad at water skiing.
Would easily give away my Happy Meal against a relocation near the Ocean.
With the help of the Earth, the Wind and the Fire, doing my best to spread the soul juice 33 times per minute.
