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.

There’s a lot to celebrate these days. thefuture.fm has released a preview beta version of their new website for y’all to see, and in about a month, my 40th Bday is coming up.

Instead of getting gifts though, I want to give back to my fans who have made my career what it is, and with the future.fm relaunching, this would be the perfect time to offer Original for free as a way to celebrate new milestone for both myself and the future.fm.

Hear for the first time officially, Original for digital streaming…

Original : Hip Hop songs mixed with their original sample counterparts. made back in 2001, this was the mixtape that started everything for me. It became so popular that it ended up becoming a series , dubbed the “original mixtape series”.

12 years later, i’ve gotten a lot of new fans over the years, and there are many thefuture.fm fans who have not have had the opportunity to hear it. Now is your chance.

Every week leading up to my bday in June I will be releasing another mixtape in the “original” series, so check back for the upcoming month as I open up the rest of my mixtape catalog for the future.fm followers…

From the website – www.foodrepublic.com

Food Republic. This is a company and a website founded on the idea that guys everywhere are putting food at the center of their lives like never before. Whether you’re a casual cook, help a pro, or you don’t set foot in the kitchen unless starvation is creeping in and that months-old package of ramen in the cupboard is more appealing than the drive to the nearest fast-food joint, chances are you think about food a lot.

For my fans who follow me on instagram and facebook, you know I love food. Love to cook it, love to take pictures of it, and definitely love to eat it.

My life as a DJ has given me the opportunity to travel the world, and on the way I’ve eaten a thing or two or ten that I would normally not get a chance to sample.

For the next 2 weeks @foodrepublic is letting me TakeOver there instagram, to share with you some of the food and experiences I’m having while out here on the other side of the world in asia.

For my foodie travellers, I’ll be showing you guys and gals stuff to add to your eating bucketlists.

You will get to see some local eats from Tokyo and Kyoto Japan, Seoul Korea, Shanghai China, Hong Kong and Beijing .

In the meantime, enjoy the free stream….

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

minone

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.

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.

g-bo the pro

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.

Peace out Jay Leno show…

Another one of our tv icons is moving on to their next chapter. One of my fond memories was getting to perform on his short lived “Jay Leno” Show during my run with Jay-Z . If y’all remember, treatment this was right after the infamous Taylor Swift incident with Kanye West at the VMA awards.

Smoove – the mixtape that got me known as a “Mash Up” DJ…

The countdown to Valentine’s Day continues, cheap with the official digital streaming release of Smoove via thefuture.fm.

If you’ve been under a rock for the last 13 years and haven’t heard it yet, here it is for your listening pleasure.

This is one of my early mixes where I started incorporating a larger music spectrum . Led Zeppelin all of my love, mixed with the instrumental from Biggie’s One More Chance for example. For a lack of a better label, this got me known as a dreaded “MASH UP” DJ.

I’ve never really liked that term, but I understood. The time was different. So crazy how different things are today. In 2014, some of the grammy’s best performances were “mash-ups”. Like Imagine Dragons x Kendrick Lamar.

The influence of hip hop, of Hip Hop Djing culture on music as a whole is pretty amazing.

Bittersweeet got me my first meeting with Damon Dash & Rocafella records…

Today for the first time Bittersweeet is available officially via digital delivery. Its been floating around the internet for quite some time now, ailment but because of thefuture.fm everything is all nice and legal, viagra AND I’ll be able to get all the artists that are featured on the mixtape payed ;)

Thinking back I would say that Bittersweeet was probably my favorite mixtape that got me a lot of attention… which was pretty strange for the time period. My background was as a battle DJ. A Hip Hop DJ. So I was supposed to play Wu-Tang. Definitely not love songs.

But I always dared to be different, sickness and this mixtape ended up in the hands of some pretty important folk.

Among those people was a person named Ashley Nicoles, who at the time happened to be Damon Dashes and Jay-z’s personal assistant. Through him I imagine, the mixtapes made their way up the rocafella food chain, and according to word of mouth stories they ended up in the hands of Mr Carter, and Damon Dash.

In fact, I had a meeting via Ashley sometime in 2004 with Damon Dash, which for me being a turntablist DJ was just a crazy unimaginable eye opening experience. It was a very short conversation. Damon was in the middle of a lot of business, he said “I like your work”, and kept it moving.

After that, I got a call from another music executive at Rocafella, Mr Kenny Burns, who was running “RocMusic” – the rocafella label with “non”hiphop artists. We had a longer meeting, and I ended up making this mixtape, that never really came out, because right around the time it should have come out, was when Rocafella records fell apart.

Now this is in the age before twitter, before social media was so crazy. This was before camera phones and smartphones, pre selfie era. So I don’t have much documentation of what went down. All I have is what I remember, and this cover of the Rocafella mixtape that I made that would never be released.

rocmusic

Here’s another blast from the past – A review by one of the “DJ” magazines that was around called Tablist.

tablist-rocmusic

So that was my first encounter with Rocafella Records, and unfortunately at the time it wasn’t the greatest experience. I made this mixtape, put a lot of work and effort and time into it, had delusions of grandeur of maybe working with one of rocafellas artists , and then… nothing.

Years later, in 2008, I ended up Djing for Mr. Carter. Sometimes Nice guys don’t finish last ;)

And now, for those who haven’t heard it yet, or haven’t heard it in years –

The foundation of my career has always been making mixtapes, and I was never able to get them officially online for digital delivery because of the legal issues… until now ;)

I’ve joined thefuture.fm , a digital platform that allows me to not only stream my mixtapes legally, but also gets the artists whose music is on my mixes paid.

From thefuture.fm website –

We built a platform for you to listen to all the best mixes in the world. For you to discover new music. For you to enjoy music non-stop. For you to find high quality music in every genre. We want to give you the most professional DJs; DJs that not only play at the most exclusive events, the best clubs and the biggest festivals around the world, but also up and coming producers scouted from all over the net.

But we didn’t stop there. We also created technology that doesn’t exist anywhere else. Technology that lets you learn what songs you’re listening to, and buy them if you love them. Because we’re streaming only for one reason; so that we can track the songs that get played and pay royalties to the artists who’s music you enjoy.

Helping you find the best music
Promoting the DJs who curate it
Hooking up the artists who made it

That’s what we’re about.

Pretty sweeet huh? ;) And speaking of sweeet, thefuture.fm’s first project with me involves counting down to valentine’s day .
