CULT CLUB MOSCOW 10 YR MIX ~ KON

The journey of Al Dobson Jr over the last year epitomises everything we enjoy about covering music on Stamp The Wax. A tale that's taken him from internet obscurity to critical acclaim in twelve months, it's been great to discover his music, get to know the man behind it a little more, and watch his other-wordly beats reach new and increasingly influential ears.&#13;
&#13;
Here is his long-awaited (for us anyway) mix, full of his own material and some older, quite astounding soul records. For FREE DOWNLOAD and Q&amp;A head to <a href="http://www.stampthewax.com/2014/06/16/stamp-mix-32-al-dobson-jr/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Stamp The Wax</a>.

Several years in the making and including around 100 tracks, this is my personal tribute to De La Soul's '3 Feet High and Rising'. Using original sample sources, album tracks, interviews and rarities, 'How High's The Water Mama' tells the story of one of hip hop's most influential albums.

When De La Soul's debut album dropped in 1989 I was ten years old. Yet, by some stroke of good fortune a cassette copy of '3 Feet High and Rising' found its way into my hands thanks to my best mate's older brother. The music was a revelation and had a significant influence in shaping my musical tastes - in fact I can't think of any other album that has had such a profound effect on me as this one. Thus '3 Feet High and Rising' holds a special place in my musical affections. Now, some twenty-five years after its original release, it's time to pay my respect to Pos, Dove, Mase, and Prince Paul...

Respect and thanks to DJ Moneyshot for providing the original inspiration for the mix, Strictly Kev for sample sourcing, design work and general encouragement, DJ Cheeba for keeping me on my toes, Chris Binstead for his great taste in music and for unwittingly exposing my young ears to '3 Feet High and Rising' in the first place, and of course, to Dave Jolicoeur, Kelvin Mercer, Vincent Mason and Paul Huston without whom none of this would be possible.

@ Giant Steps

Live Breaks Mix using all original pressings, 3 turntables, 2 mixers. Performed by DJ Zeph & Imperial. recorded live to DAT. mastered by Rafi at Studio 45. 
This is not the original cover. Real cover coming soon. I'd never seen this cover until i did a google search for our mix....gotta love the interwebs....

I Read a couple of blog posts about this one. SOME  of the comments I'm not sure I agreed with. All thought part 2 was a success for different reasons, part one offers some cool shit i'd like to point out.
This was recorded Live!! not many other mixes, especially featuring breaks are done that way. Sure theres better technical DJ's, and DJ's with better collections, but we kinda brought a good balance of both to the tables (haha) , but more importantly TRANSITIONS!! Neither of us are Q-Berts, but DJ Imperial isn't far behind. His cuts are so dope, Oh my god, and funkier than most big name dj's. The selection is what it is, and we definately weren't above playing records that weren't super rare, especially compared to a Shadow/Cut Chemist mix. We set out to provide a vibe, and i feel like that was more important here. both Imperial and I spent the most amount of time deciding on what to play. But the transitions, whew!! definately more considered than other popular breaks mixes of the day. if you listen to most you can definately tell the transitions were secondary, like a Muro mix. Where as here you can really tell its all part of a story, and seamless/interesting transitions are telling it. And again Live!!

We really had a great time putting this together, and it reflects a great time period when Imperial lived with me for a summer in SF, and we worked on music as much as possible. DJ Paul Nice, our roomie at the time, was driven crazy while we were putting it together, thanks for putting up with us Paulie!! We got a good amount of recognition when it came out. Allthough only pressed up in small numbers, and sold at exclusive locations, it was always sold out and on re order...earning an Amoeba records Staff pick of the year, and supportive comments like "better than [Shadow & Cut Chemist's] brainfreeze'. 

We used three Technics 1200's, one Gemini Scratch Master (really!!), one Vestax 06pro, Ortofon Needles, A Sony DAT recorder...don't remember how we combined the signals, this was circa 1998!!!

Break Builders Vol 1 part 1 ---DJ Zeph & DJ Imperial

With the vast amount of new music released in the past weeks, the show features a top draw selection of talented artists including Saucy Lady, K-Maxx, Morgan, XL Middleton, First Touch, Soul Supreme, Dam Funk, The Vapor Caves, The Jack Moves + more! I also sit down and catch up with Walla P about Prime Source and have a sneak preview into some of the new things lined up coming in the next month. Aswad also shares some close to the heart favourites from the collection (of course ☺️)
