From 03.07.23 "This one is for De La. This is tough. I've been streaming De La Soul's music all weekend (if you haven't been, PLEASE run up their discography's numbers on any and EVERY DSP you use), and to me, their music can be summed up in one word: sunshine. Maybe it's because it was a gorgeous spring day years ago when I ripped open the plastic wrap on my "Stakes is High" CD only to blast it on repeat in my car for hours....or maybe it's because I was obsessed with their track "Can't Call It" in the summer of 2014....but whatever the reason, their music means so much to me - "Dinninit" was on one of the first mixes I made almost 15 years ago (sheesh) that I had the confidence to share publicly (aka burning to CD/hand out/email to friends) - when I was figuring out this DJ thing. And whatever mood I'm in, I know I can bump any De La Soul track and smile."

For those of you unfamiliar with DJ Revolution, the man is a turntable god.
This is among my favourite of his mixes, mid-2000s I think... grabbed from a torrent years ago, dusted off for your listening pleasure.
Check the scratching/wordplay in the intro and you'll be hooked, trust me :-)

DJ Revolution: Cornerstone Mixtape #100

DJ Revolution: Cornerstone Mixtape #100 (2007)

All tracks from artists from the boogie down: the birthplace of this hip-hop thing. I didn't take it to the 70's and 80's because, to me, the artists in this mix really created and pioneered that underground Bronx sound. Basically, all tracks taken from  the "Diggin in the Crates" crew and affiliates discographies. Selections either feature a beat from a Bronx-born producer (Buckwild, Lord Finesse, Ahmad, Showbiz, etc.) or rapper (Fat Joe, KRS-One, and so on). Yeah, I know, Big L, O.C., and Milano aren't from the Bronx (I'm 99.9% sure Sadat X is), but they've been known to murder a Buckwild / Lord Finesse / Showbiz beat or two. Take the train uptown.    

Soundtrack:
1. O.C. - Let It Slide
2. Fat Joe - Bronx Keeps Creating It
3. KRS-One - Rappaz R.N. Danja
4. Lord Finesse - Yes You May (Remix) (Feat. Big L)
5. Lord Finesse & DJ Mike Smooth - Strictly for the Ladies
6. Diamond D - Best Kept Secret
7. Showbiz & A.G. - More Than One Way Out Of The Ghetto
8. Showbiz & A.G. - Diggin In The Crates
9. Showbiz & A.G. - Diggin In The Crates (DJ Premier Remix)
10. Showbiz & A.G. - Fat Pockets (Radio Remix)
11. Sadat X - Escape From New York (Feat. Deda)
12. Pete Rock - Rock Steady (Feat. Lord Tariq and Peter Gunz)
13. Percee P - Who With Me?
14. Percee P - Put It On The Line (BX Remix)
15. KRS-One - Outta Here
16. Fat Joe - Firewater (Feat. Raekwon and Showbiz)
17. Lord Finesse - Check The Method
18. Lord Finesse - Untitled Beat
19. Brand Nubian - Allah U Akbar
20. Big L - The Enemy (Feat Fat. Joe)

Prepare to be blown away... (CD liner notes follow)

Once again, DJ Revolution invites you to explore more breaks in the thrilling new world of Ultra Hi-Fidelity stereophonic sound. These classic drum beats, rare loops and all around funky sounds come to life like never before at the hands of one of the most respected dj's around. This record will dazzle your eardrums while demonstrating the differences between typical stereo recording and ones presented in Hi-Fidelity. In this volume, Revolution cuts up and re-arranges some of the sickest breaks ever laid to tape and continues to flex his world renowned turntable skillz while slicing raw breaks taken from Funk45's, Soul, Rock, music libraries and classic soundtracks. Allow yourself to become educated in stereo sound as you experience briliant highs and speaker-busting basslines with no boring, drawn out vocal versions to slow your mood down. This album has also been recorded to meet the highest industry standards and quality is assured from start to finish. Mixed and mastered by Revolution at the prestigious Millenia studios with the use of new futuristic "computer" technology that delivers a more realistic sound at increased levels of volume. You're sure to enjoy this exclusive collection of tunes pieced together and manipulated by a true turntable virtuoso. Although this album will sound excellent played back on any source, you will be able to enjoy the full dynamic range of hi-fidelity on a higher end stereo system consisting of two or more speakers played at maximum volume.

DJ Revolution: The ABC's Of High Fidelity (2005)

DJ Premier - The Thunderstorm, 1994-11-11, WBLS, Pt.1

* Message me if you have any copyright issues *

Home of my own mixes - predominantly jungle/hardcore with the odd bit of D&B, plus eclectic sample-digging, breaks and hip-hop, techno & electronica. 

Pre-2001, all mixes vinyl; Post-2016, all mixes digital (DJay 2); Post-2018, Ableton Live. Why? Why not?
I've got an old skool DJ's mentality, early influences ranging from Sublove, Ratty, Randall & Hype to Coldcut, DJ Juice, MK & Primo.  In the early 00s I turned my back on D&B, retired my turntables in favour of family/work commitments, and got into funk, soul, reggae and so on... a lot of this driven by curiosity around the sample roots of hardcore and jungle.  Forward another decade and an early mid-life crisis saw me messing around with virtual decks on my phone, and later acquiring a vinyl ripper, with one vision in mind: making mixes.
Although I'm partial to the odd DJay or vinyl mix when I get the chance, the progression into Ableton Live was a simple means to an end.  My ideas stretch further than the limitations of my physical collection and real-time mixing, and by sequencing I can pick, choose, chip away and structure mixes at my leisure. Which I do... a lot :)

Wait, there's more ... an absolute stack of classic golden era/old skool hip-hop/turntablism, jungle and d&b, hardcore, techno and house mixes retrieved from my dusty tape & CD archives.  This includes (by my reckoning) the most exhaustive collections of classic Full Cycle and Sublove Galaxy Radio shows, live Ruffneck Ting jungle tapes, loads of studio & compilation mixes, all manner of rave tapes, and so on. 
Use the playlist shortcuts (top of spotlight) to find your way around. 

Have fun, spread the love :)
