Old shit I found, from around late 90's... Still makes my head bop!

nAffie - Another Unfinished Snippet

Well... I probably should need to finish this mixtape sometime before I die... This is only a small part of the garage section... I still want to switch to breakbeats, jungle and dnb, like my earlier mixtapes...
I have loads of tracks selected, but so not fucking motivated anymore....

Another draft, unfinished mixtape

DJ NAFFIE - Mind Can't Work

DJ NAFFIE FT. AMBUSH - This is why we Jump (edit)

DJ NAFFIE FT. AMBUSH - This is why we Jump

The only time me and DJ Insane got together and played around in my makeshift studio back in the days... Somewhere around 2005 or so I guess... 

Haaardkooor

Made this intro back in 2004 or 2005, an hour before I got to spin at the now closed Hollywood Music Hall in Rotterdamn...
Was around Christmas... #likeduh

Jingle All The Way [bumpstyle]

Chuckie & nAffie - Bootleg 2006

Wreck wreck wreck wreckkkkk..... 
Da Partycrasher (nAffie's oldkool hardcore remix)

DJ Chuckie - Da Partycrasher (nAffie's unfinished oldkool hardcore remix)

This is my set from Voltage on 24-05-2017 @Paard van Troje in The Hague, Holland.
I made this quick mix just to test if the tracks would work together before playing them live... And they did!
Enjoy!

DJ nAffie's set @Voltage 24-05-2017

One of my first tryouts in Ableton in 2009 or 2010 with the main operator @WoodNox... We tried to remix a favorite old house track of mine (Pot of Gold by Chesnut) and during this session I learned some basics in Ableton as I came from a tracker background (Fasttracker, Renoise).
Props going out to @WoodNox for the schooling and making this lesson he taught me fun as f*ck!
Still got a clip of me going at this track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NuC7moKi20

Chesnut - Pot of Gold (WoodNox & nAfie Rainbow edit)

Another learning session for me with Ableton back in 2009, this time with the main operator Eric Santana! He just made this dope ass beat and I did some arrangement and samples...
This time it's a bit more techie than housie (lol) but that beat is sick as f*ck!

Chesnut - Pot of Gold (Eric Santana & nAffie techie edit)

nAffie - Go uppah

Some DNB I made somewhere in '97 or '98... Anywayzzz... it was waaaaaaay back hehe...
Made on a PowerMac 9500 with PlayerPro wh00t!
Samples came from a free CD that came with a music magazine and from the Titanic movie 

nAffie - Nouveau

Ouch, this was one of the first bootlegs I made with a house track and the bubbling beatz... 1999 or 2000 I guess....

Was still rocking that PlayerPro on my PowerMac G3

nAffie - Bubbling nation

Now that's a proper flashback... Being fed up with all the crazy house/bubbling remixes my dog Chuckie went oldskool and came up with this arrangement..... also around 2001 or so...
Love it! 
and that's an order!


Chuckie - Flashback

Just some cutting and weird arrangements with Fasttracker II < Legendary!

Also Chuckie did some crazy cutting with that beat around 1:50 because I had nothing left for this track... 

nAffie - Get your freak on

Yeah, this waz a floorfilling clubbanger back in the dayz... A proper DJ-tool for switching from hiphop/R&B to da dancehalllll

Chuckie - It's about to go down

When battling died after the new milennium Chuckie and me decided to each make a bubbling battle beat, just for old times sake... This was Chuckies creation: sickkkk!

Actually battling never died, I see youngbloods still battling, popping and inventing moves and also hearing crazy arrangements from the beatmakers... respect!

Chuckie - Just another battlebeat

nAffie -Non Violence Battle (no gunshotz)

This was my first attempt to do a partybreak with some bubbling influences....Turned out it did really well in the clubs....

But hey, I guess any track with some vocals of AV8 partybreaks will get a floor filled.... 

nAffie - The ragga episode

Whaaa, this is one of my first attempts to make some DNB with my Apple PowerBook 180c running PlayerPro... 

Quickly transferred the arrangement to the PowerMac 9500 I misused for making noise instead of creating artwork and finished this track... This was around '96/'97 I guess....

nAffie - Dubz 'n stuffz

nAffie VS Manolo D (DJ Dolly) - Testje (heb je wel geskuurd?) *snippet*

My 2004 version of the legendary track from DJ Chippie: Nak a pokoe!

Happy Birthday Chippie!

DJ Chippie - Nak a pokoe (nAffie 2004 remix)

This is when it all started out for me.... 

Here's this remix I made in 2000, which had so much impact on the club scene, even now I can't get my head around it...
Still proud as hell when I hear this track being played, or hear the tracks based on this beat I made...

It started, motivated and inspired so many current (2013) DJ MAG Top-100 DJ's, created new genres, got revamped more than once (thanks to Chuckie, Afrojack, Dave Nada & Munchi) and still gets crowds moving...

Here's some background info:
-Heard the original track (The Moon - Blow the speakers) at my friends (Romano, ICE)  home on TMF or the BOX music channel...
-He mentioned: Yo, dude, this is a track you really have to remix!
-Wrote down the info...
-Downloaded the vinyl rip via Napster....(yeah Napster!)
-Started cutting the track into samples on the PowerMac G3 (B/W) I was working with... Used Peak as my main editor in those days....
-Created a beat on the drop with PlayerPro (the only thing that came close to FastTracker2 or ProTracker on Macintosh)... Chuckie was also there. He advised me to make the beat more like another bubbling remix that was popular in those days (DJ Jean - The Launch bubbling remix)
I finally got the perfect beat for this track, bounced the track, burned it on a CD and gave it to Chuckie... He called me from his car on the way home, while listening, and said: "this shit kinda rocks...Finish it!"...
-The following days I finished the track and the next time I was at Chuckie's (and Patrick's aka Layedback's) home, we were experimenting with recording his voice using a new mic and compressor. Of the couple of thousand takes we recorded I snagged the "Now this is the original..." vocal and used it for my remix...
We also recorded some "nAffie" samples, but they were really corny, so I recorded my own voice later, whispering my name on a $5 computer mic (webcams didn't have built in mic's back in the days), holding a handkerchief as a filter between my mouth and the mic...
-Took those vocals to finish the remix...

Burned it on a CD, Chuckie played it whenever he could (if there was a CD player available, in those day's it was vinyl only!), got the track bootlegged on vinyl (thanks Howard D) including Chuckie's Partycrasher, and shit got crazy... Every DJ in Holland was spinning our tracks!

Loved it when DJ Ghost from Belgium personally called me and said that my remix rocked! 

After that we formed RMXCRW and started uploading our tracks and remixes online... Then came the official vinyl releases on the Digidance label, the Bubbling Beats brand, CD's, party's, tours and then some...

This silly remix I've done way back opened so many doors for me, made my life better and created a legacy which I'm proud of...

Now this is the original.....
