CORNBREAD'S HONEYCOMB HIDEOUT

dedicated to one of the most abused and neglected cities in the our country that has given us some of the dopest sounds we will ever come to know. Detroit is to music what airhorns are to loud...

It hasn't been that long since I dropped this gem but I'm certain the only person who owns this is Robert Waters and maybe 10 people. So I'm was gonna drop this again. Here 'tis: A 2 hour mixtape comprised of Beatles covers done in every imaginable genre possible by artists you likely ever knew did covers in the first place. Stevie, Otis Redding, Herbie Mann, Sergio Mendes, Nina Simone, Lee Scratch...I could on about it or you could just listen.

this mix is for all that will not be able to attend this Friday's joint OR for those who are getting prepared for the throwdown of rhythm. Here is an exclusive mix of latin groove. Its mostly panamian and
other parts of the linkage to south america... boobies shaking across the world. Track listing? Yeah right!...enjoy . Thank you Q.

these beats are adapted from pink floyd's dark side of the moon. truth be told...I absolutely hate this album. i think the album is although original and pioneering in every way, has birthed and defined a musical mindstate/cult that has limited the sight and range of music due to consistent comparison to this album. Music lovers with no artistic schtick have placed parameters around this coveted album and have often measured the ingenuity of other music and where it could really go from there but have chosen to embrace floyd's masterpiece solely.
Not to mention,it was made in 1973. its 2010, people..and there will be nothing like a dark side of the moon...until someone out there creates the next one.
In the meantime, give this variant of an album that is in everyone's top 10 album of all time list a listen.
I DO hate this album. I own several copies of it because i feel weird being a vinyl collector and not having an album of such great historical importance in my cache. the beats were solely developed from inebriated influences and the consistent badgering of three of my whitest friends asking me whether or not it was possible. I also wanted to hear a version of something like dark side of the moon without rolling my eyes when I realized what was playing.

Apologies for being off the grid. The Obscurity and oddness of this mix should make up for the absence. If you like rock from baby boomer era, then you win big in this mix. If you don't know what exactly that sound is - then prepare for an education. Lesson from this mix: JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING IS FUNKY - Yes, even christian rock bands knew how to handle a funk break or two back in the day. Seriously, the mix is trippy though...

THE TITLE REALLY SAYS IT ALL. A HALF HOUR TO START YOUR WEEK OFF RIGHT.
GOODNIGHT AND GOOD LUCK.

a beat made with some TLC.

This mix comes at the inspiration of some very good people working with what seems like ease to make a culture out of thin air that rivals what people coordinate for years to obtain. In dedication to Paul Somers, Jeremiah Jenkins and a host of many others that work make something for themselves rather than wait for the "handout" that never comes to those who don't punch the clock or put their work in. This also dedicated to the dope vibe that frankly will be on people's radar very soon in a little town off 81 North. Cheers P.

a collection of rare an obscure breaks.

A SESSION FROM CLUB LAMP.

A couple of months ago,i was in a heavy into the much debated aspects or main arguments of what "hiphop" is and whether or not its dead conversation with some fellow DJ brethren and hiphop heads. Needless to say, the context was stirring and full of healthy argument in regards to the present day of hiphop. We did our usual "remember back in day" shit, clinked our 40 oz.'s of High life on my balcony and proceeded to exchange our tales of trial and tribulations in the game of Djaying/Producing.

It occured to me in that moment in time that we never rocked the old stuff anymore. Most cats have all the staples of the old stuff like Rapper's Delight and Grandmaster Flash's the message but the heartbeat and the feel of hiphop back in the day had a fever that we rarely see today. I remember the battles, the breakers, forming my own bboy crew in elementary school back in Texas...there was a motivating intensity to build your skill and knowledge all in the name of out shining your homeboys/girls.As a friend who grew up in the early 80's in the Bronx says.."We did hiphop for need, not the greed...it made us stronger people back then."

There we were talking like old fogeys on a porch in rocking chairs about the good ole' days and we weren't even rocking the stuff that got us here... As a matter of fact, most djays that have been around for a minute don't even know alot of the crews and pioneers from back in the day.
A couple of days later i started researching some old cuts,spending alot of time at BROADWAY reading liner notes on the sugar hill label and picking up anything i could.

I wanted to introduce this mix to a hiphop audience that doesnt know anything about early hiphop or thinks that hiphop comes from the 90's. When it comes to making niche mixes involving stuff you've never heard of, people tend to get skiddish around these parts. It painful to hear people talk about how down they are with hiphop, you pop in a Schooly D cassette on and they act like you listen to country music because they've never heard of him.
You have to go back to the 70's to see hiphop from the beginning. Thats the bottom line.
Regardless of your placing of hiphop, this mix is for everyone who can appreciate how far we (the people in birth from this culture) have come in 40 years.

a thirty minute mix of golden/subsonic era hiphop from back in the day.

this mix is traditional eithopian joints. keyword here: TRADITIONAL. eithopian roots stuff.

obscure but enlightening...

Peace! This is raw joint from the set.
