Jazz Spastiks - Unkut Dope

Beat, mixing and mastering by Tapehead
Vocals from ‘One Mic Acapella’ by Nas

Visuals: https://youtu.be/H3ITC_LUFYI

This year I’ve been making sure I release a brand new beat every 2 weeks. I always have Wednesday off work so the way I’ve been doing this is I make the beat Wednesday, mix it the Wednesday after, and release it the week after that, making the next new beat the week I release the last new beat I made. I spend the 2 weeks between making new beats digging through samples to prepare and get an idea of what I might be making for the next one, and for this one I worked it out instantly. I was actually really struggling with what I was going to do because I hadn’t really found anything that was properly inspiring me, and I’d been pretty busy so I hadn’t had as much time to properly go through my unlistened records to see what I could find. On the Tuesday evening on the way home from work I put on a compilation of Jazz greats, and luckily there was a lot of traffic so I ended up listening to the whole thing. This sample was the 2nd last track, and as soon as I heard it I was gassed and after a few listens I’d worked out the rough areas I was going to chop up, and also immediately thought of putting ‘One Mic’ over it, cause I was hearing how I could layer and build up the sample in a way that would match what Nas does with his vocals on that track. This got me so motivated and the next day I was just set on making the idea a reality, and I couldn’t have been happier with how it turned out. This really feels like the beat was made for the vocals to me, and I guess in essence it was, because all the time when I was making it I was thinking about this acapella and how it would flow over it. A lot of the time it’s difficult to know what acapella would work for a remix straight away, so times like this are dope for creating something really convincing and concise. 
I also thought it was funny how I sampled from a song about ‘Mrs Jones’ with the intention of remixing One Mic, seeing as Jones is Nas’ real surname, I only just realised that now, maybe that subconsciously made me think of Nas acapellas straight away when I was listening to the sample.

I really hope people enjoy this one, I’ve been really excited to share it, and I’m way too excited about the next one which I made this week – Peace!!

I would like to share the news, we have a new member and he goes under the name of @djdash818 and he's located in Bucharest, Romania.

I decided to put together a welcoming mix, where i told Dash to select the tracks he thinks his skill can shine through and give the listeners a good first impression of his style & sound. His debut tape will be available on all services on May 10th - all digital services. The release is called 'Slight Ease' and it contains four exclusive tracks never heard before. I'm really happy for this, to have more people with great energy & vibe to join the movement.

I really hope you will enjoy your stay, blessings from the whole crew. 
/Luciano.
