Sit Down with DJ Premier and Pete Rock

: January 12, 2011

Happy New Year Pilgrims!

I mark my return with an hour-long sit down with two of hip-hop’s greatest ever producers: DJ Premier and Pete Rock. Such an enthralling interview and it’s fantastic to see the chemistry between the two friends and competitors as they discuss the career-defining records for not only themselves, but the artists they crafted them for.

I’ve already watched this 4 times.

Mick Boogie-93 Til’ Infinity Mix

: November 24, 2010


Apologies for the lateness: I didn’t know it existed until I saw an email from Mick earlier!

“Mick Boogie, known for his eclectic DJ sets and amazing mixtapes, is also an avid basketball fan and a video game junkie. With the recent return of the classic 90’s arcade game NBA JAM (now refreshed and remixed for 2010), Mick was inspired to put together a mixtape of classic and rare 90’s remixes that serve as the soundtrack to where we were back in the day.  Being that NBA JAM dropped in 93, Mick’s decision to call the mix “93 Til’ Infinity” was the only appropriate choice! In addition to the mixtape, Mick collaborated with vintage t-shirt designers Homage to create a limited edition NBA JAM/93 Til Infinity inspired tee to celebrate the release of this mix and the videogame.  You can find the shirt here”.

You can grab the mixtape here, and view the tracklist after the jump below.

Throwback Thursdays Vol 17

: March 11, 2010

This week’s TT is for Ajay as much as anyone as I know he is a big fan of Pete Rock and C.L. Smooth. They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y) was the lead single from Rock and Smooth’s debut Mecca and the Soul Brother (1992). A now classic, T.R.O.Y was inspired by the death of a close friend, “Trouble” T. Roy of Heavy D and the boys.
