De La Soul Is Dead 30th Anniversary Mix by DJ Filthy Rich

Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth's classic LP 'Mecca and the Soul Brother' turned 30 recently, so reminisce for a spell with a mix of OG Samples, Remixes, & Blends.
The way Pete sampled old jazz/funk/soul records and layered them over hard, dusty drums was masterful (how he caught that little part on the fadeout of an Ohio Players record for 'Lots Of Lovin' still amazes me).    
Combine that with C.L.'s sharp yet fluid lyricism (how many MC's could rhyme like THIS back in '92??), and you unquestionably have one of the pillars of early 90's NYC boom bap.

Grown Man Rap Show - Episode 65 - Large Professor tribute - Paul Nice & DJ Toast

My new "situation" has afforded me much more time to work on mixes than I had before.  I am currently sitting on four completed mixes and on the cusp of finishing a fifth.  Of course, all will be released at some later date.  I'm not sure why I'm taking so long to let go of these mixes, but I am.  Mix hoarder?  Whatever you want to call it, here's the first step toward rehabilitation.  Samples/breaks used to create the masterpiece that is Supreme Clientele, mixed like you've come to expect from Pipomixes.  Enjoy and share.

Supreme Breaks

With the studio doors are closed to @ Mango Hill's studio to prevent the spread of Covid-19 they called on their Djs to provide musical odysseys. Here's a little funky mix to pass the time and walk your doggs to. Check out Miami's premier soul label Mango Hill's catalog here https://soundcloud.com/mangohillrecordsmiami

Funky Uncles for Mango Hill

London’s very own Spin Doctor has been a busy boy while in Lockdown. He has created this epic mix dedicated to the powerhouse that is Q-Tip. Using 50 tracks to mark The Abstract’s 50th Birthday on Friday 10th April 2020.
 
The mix combinies a bunch of Tip’s productions, verses, samples, interviews and more. From A Tribe Called Quest to Solange, Nas to Quincey Jones, the mix explores all aspects of this man’s genius.
 
There are very few artists that can claim such impact on an entire genre, but A Tribe Called Quest’s Q-Tip can do just that and more. As a member of what is widely agreed to be the greatest Hip-Hop group of all time, as a solo artist and as a producer for the great and the good, Q-Tip’s impact is immeasurable. Through his influence on the likes of J-Dilla, Kanye West and Pharrell, his influence can still be heard throughout all forms of Hip-Hop and Soul. Keep Bouncing!
