NEEDLE DROPS Volume Nine feat DJ Expo & Loopdrop Kid

WNUA...Ninety Five Point Fiiiiii-ivveeee!

If you're of a certain age, you recognize this jingle instantly!!

A former Chicago "Smooth Jazz" radio station and an institution in Chicago for many. This mix is dedicated to my Mom. Happy Belated Birthday! We used to listen to WNUA in her car all the time. I used to scoff at the Kenny G's of the world back then, but little did I know it would all come full circle. I'm playing these type of cuts in my sets and on the radio. 🎷

Tanisha and I were listening to a sick WNUA playlist on the way to my Mom's bday (9/25), and this mix idea came to me. I approached this as if I was asked to play a dj set on WNUA, so I played more of the soulful, dj-friendly cuts I recall them playing than the hot tub jazz. 🛀

I may make another version with more deep hot tub anthems if you guys are enjoying this Vocalo edition.

WNUA 95.5 (Tribute Mix)

"Todd Rundgren is an artist I discovered in my teens during the mid-’90s while thrift store shopping," says A Better Tomorrow, a producer and mastering engineer whose addiction to that DJ Premier/Pete Rock classic New York hip-hop sound has fueled his creativity and is evident in his new album, It's Diamond Dave, out now via iNSECT RECORDS.

"A Wizard, a True Star LP had me tweaking. Into a whole new level. Staggering catalog of music. What can I add to what has already been said about him. He's a genius. Pretty much could care less about stardom and remained true to his creative spirit. Todd put out records the way he heard them in his mind with such bold experimentation and no rules. From prog-rock to pop songs to psychedelic collages. He remains a creative inspiration to me. This mix is just me enjoying his records & sharing some of my fav tunes like we always do about this time, kicking back at home."

Seano Live w/ The Boom Bap Kids - January 15, 2021

Grand Groove Radio-February 12 2021-Sometime Ago

Marc Hype began his DJ career, inspired by the late great Jam Master Jay, in 1988 and went through the several decades of hip hop with countless releases, tours and competitions like the ITF championships, which he won twice in 98 & 99. During this time he collaborated and recorded with artists like the Juice Crew legend Masta Ace, Souls Of Mischief, DJ Z-Trip, Killa Kela & Mr. Lif. Over the years his record collection and his musical mind  expanded and led him to all kinds of funky music. His selection on the decks as on production is freestyle, always with a unique groove, no matter the genre.

Jim Dunloop began to train as a classical piano player at the age of four. At his minor age he was analyzing the compositions of Gershwin and Bruback, leading to a keen interest in jazz music. He quickly developed his knowledge of the creative works of many great jazz/funk pianists such as Herbie Hancock , Bob James , Chick Corea and Adam Makiewicz.

In the year 2004 they both met in Berlin for the first time and quickly began to collaborate on shows and production. Their first vinyl releases on the infamous Milk Crate label, "The Antique Anthem", "Bombay Raw" & "Finale 74", were very successful in the worldwide dj-circuit, followed by a cover version of Babe Ruth's "The Mexican" in 2006, which was dubbed by UK's Jazzman Gerald as "the" version to have. On the remix tip they build a strong reputation with works for artists like All Good Funk Alliance, Deela or Kid Gusto.Their past tour schedule proved their ability to rock internationaly with stops allover europe as in NYC, Japan, Hong Kong, Russia, United Arabian Emirates, Israel & Australia.

The live performance of Marc Hype & Jim Dunloop is best defined as a mix of DJing, Turntablism and the highest of piano art. Together they gain 50 years of musical experience!

The Album

"Stamp Out Reality" is the musical manifest of Marc Hype & Jim Dunloop. A diverse mix of different styles which reflects their unique live concept. On the one hand you have classic hip hop joints like "Predominant" ft. the magnificent Mr. Lif or "Oh Really" ft. Queen's own Mr. Complex, on the other you might listening to Miami's Old School Funk legend Blowfly on "The Pussy Song", cuban diva Malena Perez from NYC on the latin influenced "Rare Occasion, heavy break stompers like "Wah Wah Wah"" or a funk cover version of the 80s electro classic "Al Naafiysh (The Soul)". The concept of the album is to display the diversity of the two maestros, coming from different backrounds, met inside the hip hop culture and travelleling through the paths of 21st century funk.
