ClassicBeatz - In The Garden feat. Desta

Originally aired on May 23, 2013.....J asked me to rock a live set with him at the Dublab Radio Show for their "Proton Drive" Fundraiser.  Following the Funky President's cue, we basically just played anything & everything that we wanted to....The Dynamic Duo was in full effect this day.  Even though this was released already, I thought it would be cool to put it up on my Soundcloud page.  This is what the nice people at Dublab had to say:

"Giving you what you want, giving you what you need…J.Rocc & Rhettmatic of The World Famous Beat Junkies blew the roof off the dublab studio in fine form during the Spring 2013 “Proton Drive” Fundraiser. They blasted the airwaves with pure riddim power and set us spinning on an axis of new light. Enjoy this archive featuring two of the world’s greatest DJs getting deep for you!"

Shoutouts to Frosty and the whole Dublab crew....hope you enjoy this little semi-old mix.

Soul Strut personality Nate Bizzo was an active crate digger back in the day who managed to get Keb Darge to come chill at his crib after a show... oh and make a rare funk mixtape that never saw the light of day.... Until today. #sharetheraer

Keb Darge - Live at Nate Bizzo's (2004)

The Cold Queen City which chills on the easternmost banks of the ever tumultuous Lake Erie has spawned more funk than blizzards, yet until now it has been infamous only for the latter. What you hold in your mitts right now, an unprecedented mix of twenty rare Buffalo funk gems spanning twenty years, intends to change this. Most of the funk contained within was only distributed locally and regionally by small independent labels scattered throughout the city on Hertel, Delaware, Main St., High St., 'East Side', etc. In runs of as little as a few hundred, one song came from a west coast label which signed a Buffalo artist after he was stranded on tour; one record was an independently distributed private pressing from a Buffalo funk legend early in his career. Some songs are straight B-Lo funk, some high-flying jazz fusion, some psychedelic horn rock, some smooth soul serenades, and a few are groundbreaking hip hop sleepers which influenced the much better known artists of the Golden Era. The entire mix, however, is cohesively bound by a unique Buffalonian style and identity which can be described no better than as 'Blue Collar Funk'. Close your eyes, listen closely and you can feel the soot of Bethlehem steel permeate the cold East Side air as you wait in line at the Rockpile to see O.J. in all his sunday splendor...

Scott Down and DJ Cutler - Blue Collar Funk (2008)

This one was pulled out of the archives and I am scratching my head profusely as to why it was never posted.  Justin Torres is legendary in Bay Area circles as a soul / funk historian and champion crate digger.  One of his main focuses is funky gospel from the 60s / 70s time frame.  He made this mix and it is an absolute face melter.

This is crate digging legend Soulman's most ambitious release... one that influenced a new generation of vinyl maniacs in the new millennium.   The drill... snippets of breaks, beats, loops, your mama from old records.  Ya dig?
