MIXTAPE STORE – DJ Neil Armstrong

Official 40th Anniversary LTD. edition STYLE WARS mixtape / hoodie bundle from ATW & yours truly

This was a project over a year in the making. If you a fan of my mixtapes, you should recognize this soundbit I use over and over…

You gotta do everything… if you specialize in one thing, you can’t call yourself an ALL OUT KING…

That saying was lifted from the movie STYLE WARS, one of my favorite #hiphop documentaries of all time.

For the 40th anniversary I made an official mixtape to celebrate. It’s part of this bundle by ATW . There will only be 83 of these pressed up, hand numbered .

Now not sure how many are left as this is a limited release, so if you wanna cop it, DO NOT DILLY DALLY.

When I made the Drake Best I ever Had X 112 remix, cialis I was experimenting with a lot of different instrumentals, pilule and this one sounded pretty smooth as well. I released both of them as a pack, called the “pretty little remixes”.

As I head up to T.dot this weekend for NBA All Star Weekend / Valentine’s Day Weekend, I thought this would be proper all around to be reintroduced as well.

Go find a main piece, side piece, side side piece or whatevers clever, put on the game, put on the remixes at the end of the nite and chill.

Remix for All Star Weekend X V-Day – Drake X 112 Best I Ever Had

Best I Ever Had Drake X 112 Remix for All Star Weekend / Valentine’s Day

ExtraOrdinary Part 2 is HERE. Available on USB cassette & Digital DL

10 years ago i Made this mix called ExtraOrdinary.

NOW, Part 2 is HERE.

From the liner Notes :
It’s kinda fresh you listen to more than hip-hop…

10 years ago I dropped the mixtape ExtraOrdinary as part of the “all out king” mixtape series. What was on it? Groups like 10, stuff 000 Maniacs, The Doors, Nirvana, & Laura Branigan. Basically a lot of artists that fall outside the realm of urban music. At the time, the usual way of integrating “non hip hop” into the mix was the every popular “mashup”. But on this mix there was none of that. Regardless, it was mixed with a hip hop aesthetic, with the songs flowing into one another seamlessly.

The point of making it was to show that good music is good music. I was trying to get people out of their comfort zone, or maybe realize that the box that they were in musically could be a lot bigger if they were open to it. I’m sure when people heard it some were suprised and not interested. But others have told me that ExtraOrdinary was one of their favorites.

Part 2 is meant to carry on the tradition. Music that isn’t funk, but is funky in its own way. Songs that wouldn’t be considered soul but can still make you feel something. There are songs on here that you will know just because they are part of the pop stream of consciousness. Some of the songs are gems waiting for your eats to discover them.

They are all songs that will be out of the ordinary…
ExtraOrdinary.

“You gotta do everything… If you specialize in one thing, you really can’t call yourself an All Out King.”

For A LIMITED TIME,we have brought the price of ExtraOrdinary Part 2 Cassette USB back to $15 Dollars.

FROM THE LINER NOTES :

Feb 14th 2005… how time flies.

I made this mixtape on that date, with this written in the liner notes:

For the next hour, I need you to open up your minds a little somethin. This is the 1st of the AOK Series. You see – you gotta do everything, if you specialize in just one thing, you can’t call yourself an ALL OUT KING. This may be somewhat of a stretch for all y’all who are used to their music in neat little packets. We’re taking a trip, and you’re probably going to hear things your not used to. Don’t worry, I won’t hit you over the head too hard, we’ll do this in babysteps…

This one’s called Warmfuzzy, like the feeling. It’s to “celebrate” Valentine’s Day, but if you’re as pimp as you think you are, this cd should be good all yr round.

At that time, music wasn’t quite this multi-genre stew it is today. Kanye West and Paul McCartney weren’t dropping collabo songs. Miley Cyrus wasn’t making music w/ Juicy J. But on the Warmfuzzy mix, there was everything on it – from Coldplay to Queen to Al Green to Slum Village, mixed NOT in the usual “mash-up” fashion of the time, but in a distinctly tasteful way that made everything cohesive. The subject matter for all the music was that “crazy little thing called Love”. Love kept warmfuzzy together.

After it’s release it became one of the mixes I was most well known for, and also the one that was my favorite to create.

This mix you hold here is Warmfuzzy part 2. Although 10 yrs have passed, the infinite pursuit still goes on. May this be the soundtrack to the next chapters in your story. I’ll still be right here with you…

Almost 3 years ago i released the Original 10 Year anniversary Boxset, pharm celebrating the creation of my 1st mixtape “Original” back in late 2001 . This was the first time I delved into doing a “digital” release, generic delivering 4 mixtapes on A special USB Drive.

The usb drive was updated to the “Cassette USB” – a true throwback. Also, I added to the updated boxset, the new mixtape Original5 to the bundle (original5 as a complete single mp3).

Counting down to the new mixtape by releasing 2 Original for free…

Mid June right around my birthday I’m releasing a new mixtape – Original part 5 . In the meantime to get y’all ready for the release I’m re-releasing the previous chapters in the “Original” mixtape series. Up next – 2 Original.

I believe I made it back in 2001/2002 . It follows the theme of the first mixtape – going back and forth between hip hop songs and the sampled music they originated from. The theme of the mixtape wasn’t anything new, discount but something like this hadn’t been done by a member of the turntablist battle community. Heavy on the scratching, all the original samples came off of real vinyl. These were the days before mp3’s and broadband allowed everyone to have the same music, so making this mixtape required some real digging.

How Style Wars helped me make Warmfuzzy and the All Out King mixtape series

After I did the Sweeet Series, clinic I had this bright idea to try to make 6 mixtapes in 6 months. I was going to call it the “All Out King” mixtape series. I did end up making the series, tadalafil but it took me about 7 years to finish.

lf you specialize in one thing,
you really can’t call yourself an all-out king. – min one from style wars

This quote from Min one became the whole idea for the new series. I was going to showcase my range of music knowledge by creating mixtapes of different genres. To be the music equivalent of a graffiti all out king.

And from this quote, Warmfuzzy, Filthy, Extraordinary, Oscillate Wildly, Music For When Nobody’s Looking and Original All Out king were Born. Each mixtape part of the same series BUT of very distinctive genres / subject matter. At that time it wasn’t that common place. You were not going to here De La Soul and the Cure on the same mixtape, unless it was in like a kitchy/campy sort of mash up way. The intent of these mixes was to keep the original integrity of the music and figure out how to connect everything.

First up in this was my valentine’s day mix warm fuzzy. We just gave it an official release via thefuture.fm

Shouts out to Haena Kang who did the artwork for the whole mixtape series.

If you like what you hear now, you can purchase a physical copy of the mix by clicking the “add to cart button” , the perfect gift for a music lover for Feb 14th and everyday.

You can also purchase the complete Sweeet 10 Year Anniversary Boxset by clicking here.

G-bo the pro & Rei Double R inspired me to make the sweeet series…

Sweeet Part 2 , site the “sequel” to sweeet . I put that in quotes because, technically Bittersweeet is the sequel… but whatevers. At some point I guess there will be a bittersweeet part 2 etc etc. Like spin-offs from tv episodes. Think of it like that.

If you haven’t heard it yet you can hear it hear via thefuture.fm.

I made sweeet part 2 in 2009, and previous to that the last mixtape (oscillate wildly) I made was in like 2006. So It had been a 3 year hiatus between creative projects, and 7 years since the 1st sweeet dropped.

In between that period a lot had things had happened. I was already on tour with Jay-z. Mash-ups were no longer the buzz, and dubstep had just reared its head for the early adopters to jump on.

With Sweeet part 2 I wanted to bring back some nostalgia and really tie the 1st two mixtapes together. So first I used a picture from the same batch of photos for the cover. In case you were wondering, the baby pictures used for all my covers are pictures of me as a child. Yes, I was wearing a plaid suit coat.

The next thing I did, was contact G-Bo The Pro.

Now for those of you who don’t know, G-bo and his old partner Rei Double R were responsible for some amazing mixtapes and a great influence on yours truly. So much so, that on the liner notes of sweeet, I shouted them out. They inspired the whole style of djing that I did for Sweeet. As time went on I actually got to meet both of them, and eventually was able to call my heroes peers.

g-bo the pro

For sweeet part 2 , I enlisted the help of G-Bo, to do a drop for the new mix, to tie everything together and to give homage to one of the guys that inspired me to do what I do . His appearance can be found at about 4:24 of the mixtape , where he tells ya’ll that we’re “Blending, not Mashing”. This was the first time I had ever used a “drop” on one of my mixtapes.

Big shouts to these two mixtape pioneers. If you’ve ever enjoyed anything I’ve done, you can thank these guys for paving the way.
