DJ JAZZY JEFF - The Vibe I'm On (1998)

I've never listened to as much music on my headphones as I have the last two and half years since my daughter was born.  In fact, I've become quite the headphone connoisseur, purchasing five different pairs of headphones in the last year.  I've got monitoring headphones, deejaying headphones, walking around the house headphones; I even have a pair of headphones that fit me just right for when I'm laying on the couch just listening to music.  That's pretty much what I do.  When done doing honey-do's and daddy-do's, I put on my headphones, listen to music, and search for inspiration for my next mix.  The problem I had for months was the actual "mixing" part of the equation.  I kept wasting my precious free time napping instead of mixing.  Enter: coffee.  The key ingredient to the equation is coffee because those wonderful brown beans have kept me awake and mixing.  The Beats serve as the inspiration.  The Headphones allow for hearing the inspiration while Lil Mixes sleeps.  And the Coffee keeps me awake enough to create.

THE WORLD FAMOUS BEAT JUNKIES The Beat Junkies, internationally recognized as an unparalleled musical phenomenon, innovated an original DJ artform that continues to entertain and inspire all realms of the music sphere. This crew of DJ virtuosos is originally comprised of thirteen members: J.Rocc, Melo D, Rhettmatic, D-Styles, DJ Curse, Babu, Shortkut, Mr. Choc, Icy Ice, DJ Havik, DJ Symphony, Tommy Gun, & DJ What!?. Stemming from various mobile DJ units throughout Los Angeles County and the Bay Area, these artists came together in the early ’90s, and introduced a masterful musical style that transformed the DJ artform throughout the world. Talented veterans in creating original compositions, the Beat Junkies introduced their unique DJ forte to audiences on every continent. Their signature music formula, which has become internationally labeled as the “Beat Junkie Style”, encompasses a practice that takes years to attain. The practice of precision, along with a driving imagination to create music incorporating the DJ techniques such as the blend and the scratch, have become the main factors in defining their distinguished expertise. Success has surrounded the Beat Junkies since the start of the new millennium.

The World Famous Beat Junkies - Vol. 3 - DJ Melo - D - 1999

Peace Everyone,

Just recently while doing some cleaning in my home studio, I found a bunch of old cassette tapes which were the aircheck tapes of the Beat Junkie Hour......This is an old recording of an episode of the Beat Junkie Hour Radio Show on KWIZ 96.7FM back in 1993/94  KWIZ was a type of station that you had to pay to play on the air, and at that time, it was $200 or $300 for an hour slot.  Even though there was alot of us, we really didn't have the money to always pay for it, so we would get some sponsors to help us pay for our airtime (as you will notice with some of our "commercials". LOL!).....As you can also tell from the recording, we were pretty young, too excited to be on the airwaves, and horrible on the mic, but we were playing alot of the classic underground as well as breaking some new music from the West Coast; we were the first ones to play the Nonce, Ras Kass, and Dilated Peoples when they were known as the Fatliners. This is about the same time when the Baka Boyz first came to LA and started working at LA's Power 106.

Around this time, the crew was starting to grow, as well as starting to make a reputation in the Dj Battle circuit like DMC & the Rap Sheet Battles....also a little tidbit of information; we had 3 short-lived members in the Beat Junkies at that time: Special J, Dj Sweet Pea (now know as the producer Paul Poli, who produced such hits for the Black Eyed Peas. Christine Millian, & Ashanti), & Dj Rectangle....yes, THAT Dj Rectangle!  And this is before Babu & Mr. Choc became official members of the Beat Junkies....officially, there are 13 members in the Beat Junkies.

On this particular episode, you actually get to hear Beat Junkie members that you may or may not be familiar with: Dj Curse, Tommy Gun, & Dj Sweet Pea, as well as J & myself in the mix and the mic.  We also shout out other members like Shortkut, D-Styles, Melo-D, Icy Ice, Symphony, Havik, & What?! Most of the time, when you listen to the show, we mostly be cracking jokes on each other, do alot of shoutouts, try to pick up on chicks on the phone, or even hanging up on them....but you can tell we were having fun.

While transfering this from casette to Pro Tools, listening to these tapes reminded me of how young and carefree we were back then; i also cringed at how we sound on the mic (i must've said "yknow what im sayin" at least 20 times) as well as my mixes.  J always kills it, even back then....boy, have times changed...LOL!!  

I'll try to upload more recordings of the the show later down the line....I'm still going thru tapes and transfering onto protools.  Anyways, here's a little piece of Beat Junkie History for you to experience.....enjoy!

BEAT JUNKIE HOUR EP 6

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.

Follow Shortkut here https://soundcloud.com/shortkut
Check http://www.pipomixes.com/ for an incredible selection of hip-hop mixes, you won't be disappointed! 
No tracklist on this one.

DJ Shortkut: Rekonstructed Elements

Well it's my birthday today, so I'm going to celebrate with this excellent mix from Beat Junkie and break-digger supreme J.Rocc. It's fair to say that mixes like this started me down the break-/sample-hunting road, and I have a couple more kicking about... expect a selection of jazz, funk and soul, musical education for fans of golden era hip-hop.

Q-TIP mix on ADWL Radio April 11,2018

A blendtape in celebration of Q-Tip's 50th birthday today.  His music has always been a huge influence in my life, so it's an honor to work with his team to present this surprise bday gift to him.

I always wanted to hear a full collab with Tip on the mic and Pete Rock on the boards, so I decided to make it myself.  I took Q-Tip's vocal's from the 'Amplified' album, and blended them with Pete's fire 'Return Of The SP1200' instrumental LP.

Special thanks to my guy Mike Rapaport, and Rachel for inspiring the idea
