Name: Onra x Method Man - Mai P.L.O Style + Dub Reprise (TREW edit) by trew
Duration: 4 min 40 s
Description: Another Onra vs. Wu Camp banger. Tried to keep vibe of the original Method Man song as much as possible here. And instead of extending the track per usual, I added a 'dub reprise' at end using a different version of the Onra beat.

In celebration of the 20th anniversary of 93 'Til Infinity, Souls of Mischief graciously opened their vaults to give Gummy Soul the exclusive acapellas of their classic album, to remix for the first time ever. 

As the framework of the project, Gummy Soul’s Wally Clark, dug through his extensive record collection, and gathered all of the songs that were sampled to make hip-hop in 1993. Jazz, Funk and Soul songs, used to create classics from Digable Planets, Snoop Dogg and Black Moon, were then re-contextualized to provide familiar, yet updated versions of some of hip-hop’s most beloved material. 

"I wanted to take all of the records that people used back then, and create new compositions using the same techniques they were using – such as filtered bass lines, classic drum breaks, echo-y horns – to make an album that sounds like it could have been released in 1993," says Clark. "It was an amazing exercise trying to capture the essence of a sacred time in hip-hop. It also allowed me to playfully use samples that are normally deemed off-limits, because they are too well known." 

Be on the look out for Soul's of Mischief's new album "There Is Only Now," produced by Adrian Younge, as well as the 93 'Til documentary, featuring Questlove, Mos Def, 9th Wonder, Pete Rock and more.

Gummy Soul - 93 Still - 07 93 Still

For this next remix, we flipped a classic cut from "21 and Over" and took it into Boombap / Dancehall territory - with a little homage to Biz Markie in there to push it over the top. E Swift's production on the original track was already top-notch, but we think there's just enough extra flavor here to keep the dancefloors heated / trunks rattling. Enjoy!

Amerigo Gazaway’s *Soul Mates* series continues the theme of his previous work in creating collaborations that never were. On the series’ latest installment, Amerigo unites Brooklyn rapper Yasiin Bey (Mos Def) and soul legend Marvin Gaye for a dream collaboration aptly titled “Yasiin Gaye”. Building the album's foundation from deconstructed samples of Gaye’s Motown classics, Gazaway re-purposes the instrumentation into new productions within a similar framework. Carefully weaving Bey’s tangled raps and Gaye’s soulful vocals over his new arrangements, the producer delivers a quality much closer to an authentic collaboration than a lukewarm "mashup" album.

Back in 1983, Hashim's „Al Naafiysh“ became one of the defining electro classics. 25 years later, 2 dope boys from Berlin – Marc Hype & Jim Dunloop – pay hommage with their seminal new-funk version (available on their album „Stamp Out Reality“ and on the double a-side 12“ „Rare Occasion“). Due to the versatile qualities of the song, we started a remix competition. Our five favourites are now available on one digi EP. Don't expect the usual MPM style (if there is one for you), it's a mixed bag of 8-bit electro, deep house, knarz house and slomo dub.

Bandulero Sound System: BSS is one of Berlin's premier reggae/dancehall sounds, consisting of Riton, Marc Johnson, Joe Hondah and Jamaican foundation legend Don Gorgon. But their remix is something completely different: bangin' 8-bit electro with serious bassline action.

This song, as well as an instrumental version, is available for FREE DOWNLOAD by clicking on the BUY link. The download is free, but you are encouraged to donate if you'd like to hear more remixes like this in the future.

Something I started working on around the time the song was released several years ago. One of those things that was nearly finished but for whatever reason just fell to the wayside and was forgotten about. So here it is, all tuned up and ready to drive. Enjoy.

Bulletproof (Paul Nice Run The Numbers Remix) / La Roux

Side A - Revive Rap - Sam Krats feat. El Da Sensei

Side B - Revive Rap (Jim Sharp Remix) - Sam Krats feat. El Da Sensei & Gee Bag


Dusty Donuts is hitting from all angles at the moment. On this Limited release we see UK producer savant Sam Krats team up with one of New Jersey’s finest, one half of the Artifacts, El Da Sensei. El has got flow for days over the quirky, stand up bass driven track by Krats. This is boom bap in it’s purest form. On the flip side, Jim Sharp takes the reigns on production and hits the mark with a Native Tongues-eque string laden beat. Jim teams up with UK emcee Gee Bag to drop a verse on the remix, making this a true transatlantic collaboration. With flavours for the basement and the BBQ, this is another Dusty Donuts sure shot.

Revive Rap

1 part Chinoiseries + 1 part Iron Flag = Wu-Banger. Cut out Raekwon, Ghostface, & Masta Killa's verses. The original Wu track kind of just goes on and on. This version gets to the point, with some extra bang. Enjoy!

DJ/PRODUCER/RECORD DEALER

FULL BIOGRAPHY:
With a love for DJing that began in grade school when using two tape decks to spin basement parties, TREW’s main aim is to weave a common thread through seemingly disparate genres. Drawing inspiration from the early 1980s NYC art/music world, he believes no genre is off limits, no collaboration too outlandish. Honing his chops East Cost Rave & Hip-Hop scenes (Baltimore/DC), it was Chicago’s wealth of musical and architectural history that pulled him westward. “Like most kids back then, I thought ‘Percolator’ was a Baltimore Club track. Once I found out the truth I knew this is where I was meant to be!” he exclaims. Soon after, he quit his corporate job, cashed in the 401k, and invested his life into music.

Since landing in the Windy City, TREW has performed or held residencies all across Chicagoland.  Played stages at West Fest, Spring Awakening, Do Division, Taste of Randolph, and North Coast Music Festival. And he has been lucky enough to perform with artists like Snoop Dogg, Mayer Hawthorne, People Under The Stairs, Keys N Krates, Nightmares On Wax, Mint Condition, Bone Thugs N Harmony, Jeremiah Jae, Bobbito, House of Pain, Van Hunt, Jneiro Jarel, Devin the Dude, Bonobo, Cut Chemist, Quantic, Currensy, Afrika Bambaataa, MF Doom, Mos Def, and dozens more.

While not DJing he co-owns Ground Lift Media - a  digital marketing + brand strategy company, is 1/2 of the DJ/Production duo Altered Tapes, owns and operates Heat Rock Records, and is deep into vinyl excavation having amassed thousands of rare Soul, Funk, Disco, & Jazz records. A hobby/obsession he shares with the world via his Miyagi Records Shop.
