Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth's classic LP 'Mecca and the Soul Brother' turned 30 recently, so reminisce for a spell with a mix of OG Samples, Remixes, & Blends.
The way Pete sampled old jazz/funk/soul records and layered them over hard, dusty drums was masterful (how he caught that little part on the fadeout of an Ohio Players record for 'Lots Of Lovin' still amazes me).    
Combine that with C.L.'s sharp yet fluid lyricism (how many MC's could rhyme like THIS back in '92??), and you unquestionably have one of the pillars of early 90's NYC boom bap.

UpNorthTrips is proud to present to you all, alongside our brothers at NahRight The Making of Hard to Earn with DJ Premier. 

Earlier this week our dude Dan Isenberg (@StanIpcus)  had the utmost privilege and honor of sitting with Primo at Headquarterz Studios (formerly D&D Studios) to talk in-depth about the creation of Gang Starr’s classic fourth album, and break down each of its songs track-by-track. 

We figured it was only right to provided yall with an original mix from our in-house DJ, The Vinylcologist (@TheVinylcologist) titled Hard to Earnstrumentals. The mix goes beyond highlighting the beats and samples on Hard to Earn, as over half of the album's instrumentals we're deconstructed and re-workings by Vinyl himself. In true UpNorthTrips fashion, we provided a dope collection of ill throwback pics and images to accompany the interview from our vaults.

This was recorded Live From Boogie Blind's Residence… This is for your listening pleasure.. I definitely asked for my brother's (DJ Boogie Blind) assistance on this one.. "The Art of Diggin'" continues.. This mix is for music lovers, collectors, diggers.. etc.. Hopefully this inspires people to continue on with the saga for collecting vinyl, rare grooves & searching for the perfect jewel.. Love & God Bless…

If Lord Finesse was a baseball player he'd be in the Robert Hall of Fame for his Triple Crown record in hip-hop. Whether he's on the microphone, drum machine, or turntables, you know he'll be chasing that MVP crown. Last month The Underboss and Slice Of Spice hit Japan for the 'Soundwave Tour' where Finesse tore it up on the 1s and 2s. We recorded a live 2 hour set on 2.14.13 in Tokyo and as promised we're sharing it with all his fans in two FREE DOWNLOAD installments. ENJOY!
