And tastes change, so young diggers are going through the stuff we didn’t give the time of day. Mid to late 80s no wave, R&B, and random 7’s and 12’s from outside the US, so not all is lost. Seeing these kids come in with their portables would always make me smile when I worked at a record store
Told my young homie how in my digging prime I could walk in to a record store and buy Everybody Loves The Sunshine & Mizell Brothers era Donald Byrd LPs mint for under $10. Pharoah Sanders & Alice Coltrane records were plentiful. Honestly feel bad for new record collectors.
Spotted out and about yesterday
WSG “055” is one of my favorite beats in a long time
Feel like I know the sample but can’t place it. Champ records or HSE???
Dawg, “Orlando” gets me every time. Don’t think I’ve ever listened to it only once, it always gets at least another spin.
I’m still very lukewarm on Larry, he’s good but nothing I ever really wanna listen to.
This is the best collection of ALC beats in a minute. And I’ve always loved 2 Chainz, so this one is gonna get a lot of play from me.
Yeah, that blend lives rent free in my head every time I hear the federation song or the Jan jam.
It was Mike the 2600 King “Heavy Session”. Unfortunately not anywhere online, but that mix is really special.
Damn. I know it’s something from a similar era. I gotta figure this out.
@sklute.bsky.social what was the mix with the Jan Hammer x hyphy blend from the soul strut days?
Incredibly happy to see anyone still care about what I’m doing musically. Thank you to the NJ scientist @killerkane.bsky.social for the amazing canvases.
Oh man. That makes sense. Sounds like the closing credits of something. I always thought it would be an orchestral theme like Large Pro used for You’re Da Man.
I just need to hear what Primo used for “Bring It On” and all my big sample chases are over with.

This place hasn’t found a voice beyond talking about that place. Doing the discover page is as tiring as any other app, unfortunately. It’s an echo chamber, while well intended, is annoying and unproductive.
New joint produced by me for Sekwence feat. Nickelus F

Just got a 12” of hers with a remix where she’s singing over the bass line from Liquid Liquid “Cavern”
There’s still no better feeling than discovering an album cut by some big act that floors you cause it doesn’t sound like anything else they’re known for. The newest one for me is:
The Rolling Stones “Heaven”
Stunning.
If you see this, post something orange
I remember reading Mingus was playing his bass to the point he was trying to break it out of anger.
Goddamn
One of the most perfect songs in all of history
Happy birthday to one of the true queens Beth Gibbons of Portishead
Great Big Bundle Of Love is my shit
Love you my brother. If it wasn’t for it being my business I’d quit it in a heart beat
Wish I could delete Benny off of all these Boldy tracks
Lots of skits on here, it’s still bloated, though. I could possibly make it to a 12 cut playlist depending on if I wanna hear Red and Faith Evans do some feel good late 90s party rap. I was not in the mood yesterday lol
