This is the original pitch of the sample, always liked how this one sounded despite pitching it down for 'Just Zone'. That tone fit the Nas acapella well, but for this version I like how both beats have their different vibes that lead into each other, first one being more light and airy, with the pitch down making the beat a bit darker and grimier, as expected really.

Almost remixed New Scapes with this beat, but I felt like the vibe was a bit too upbeat for the lyrical content. Layered up the sample quite a bit to get the bass hitting better, was pretty happy with the overall vibe of this one. 

Hope people like this beat, thanks for listening!

Peace

Beat, mixing and mastering by Tapehead
Vocals from 'Paula's Jam Acapell' by Paula Perry

Visuals: https://youtu.be/-OwmtPvq1_0

This was a pretty fun beat to remix, loads of acapellas were sounding nice over it so it actually became a bit difficult tryna work out which one would be the best fit. I had T-Max - Relax Your Mind, Masta Ace - Ain't U Da Masta, AZ - Never Change, and this acapella all blended over the beat in separate tracks. I went for this one in the end because the flow from Paula Perry fit the different parts of the beat well - and the overall party vibe of the acapella fit best with the vibe of this beat. There's some rugged parts to the beat too which fit the focus on keeping it real well, but the more carefree sounding chops that I layered fit the laid back feel of this acapella too I thought.

Highly recommend the original track by Paula Perry, one of my favourite singles from the 90s, the beat is crazy fat especially on the bass, produced by Masta Ace too which is crazy cause it's defo one of the most iconic 90s underground beats.

Hope people enjoy this track, peace and thank you always for listening.

This one took ages to mix, lots of layers and so much resonance in the sample and vocal. Really liked this concept though so I persevered with it, hope people like it! I'm defo happy with how this sounds on it's own without any vocals over the top, the vocals in the sample sort of make this into it's own song, and the variation on flips and layers definitely helps, despite making this a tough one to mix, worth it imo.

Peace and thank you for listening!

Dust Down Records invites four of the scene's most dynamic producers to reinterpret the sound of our first EP from younger brother Joeginho.

This EP is a genre-trotting journey across sounds, a box of sonic Quality Street just in time for Christmas, putting the original stems in the hands of producers we admire, giving Joeginho's vocals a new sonic lease of life: from deep-end house grooves & futuristic broken beats to Latin/dancehall & late night cruisin' G-funk flavours.

The Remixers:
Alessio Collina (Trend Records, Skylax) kicks things off straight into the deep house trenches - a pumping, hypnotic UK hip-house groove built for peak time or early morning basement sessions, with Joeginho's vocals soaring over lush pads & a killer driving bassline.

Tokyo's DJ Dreamboy (Tasty Love, Dreamin' Records, Apron Records) takes you on a late-night cruise, shifting gears into West Coast cool: low-slung and synth-heavy, it’s built for driving under neon lights, windows down.

Michele Manzo (Dirt Tech Reck) on double remix duty, showcasing his incredible versatility. Rollin' brings the warmth with a Latin / dancehall flavour. Golden ventures down a broken beat / hip hop sound, with intricate rhythmics & a gritty shuffle.

Paolo Mosca (Slow Life, Permanent Vacation) under his new downtempo alias I.O.N. delivers a mind-bending dystopian trip with futuristic, shimmering digital textures, deconstructed vocals and complex sound design - and a guitar breakdown worthy of any Guy Ritchie "everyone shoots everyone" scene.

Mastered by Graeme Lynch for maximum impact and clarity across all sound systems.
