the shorty is a lil'somethin from the ol' school days of playing anything and everything thats dope... even if its stupid... MIXED with the hardest-nastiest-crushinest beats i can muster....followed up by a smoove jazz set one time for yo' mind...peoples. get into it yall'. LETS GO!

lemme put it this way, kids. Pete Rock was a game changer for hiphop in the 90's.Throughout the timeline of hiphop there have been greats...and goods... and bests...but there are not that many firsts. Because of the impact of his production and versatlity of the rockin' the mic,PR embodies the very definition of an icon...a true first indeed. His skills and catalog have a reputation that leaves him with a title of one of the greatest hiphop producers of all time. A sixteenth of his work crosses paths with Raekwon, Masta Killa, D-Block,House of Pain, Das Efx, A.D.O.R., Biggie, Ghostface, Baby Pa, Ini, Grap Luva(his younger brother), Heavy D( his cousin), Redman, Papoose, Slum Village and Jim Jones, among others...
Pete Rock has had a considerable impact on a number of record producers who have emerged in the hip hop scene since the late 1990s. Many critics have compared newcomers to him, generally favorably. Perhaps, most notable among these comparisons are the late Detroit producer J Dilla, and North Carolina's 9th Wonder, both of whom have worked with Rock during their recording careers. Several of the comparisons stem from the fact that these producers have created the bulk of their productions out of samples, as well as the warm, mellow, and exuberant undertones apparent in their work. Pete Rock himself has added validation to the comparisons with J Dilla by stating "he's the only producer in this game that was just as serious [as me]."
this the first of 3 volumes. enjoy.

this is a consolidated version of what i was hoping to drop/did drop at the show. i ran into glitches with faulty equipment and disrupted the flow of my set. A thank you is in order to Josh, Jimmy and Dave representing the BOOT. a huge thank you is in order to all the heads that came through.

To A. Rosenburg...thank you for representin'.

ok my dudes and dudettes. i apologize for the ultra delay in the getting the latest installment to the hideout but its been crazy here in the homestead. I lost alot of podcast work that during some lightning storms last week, so I was unable to pop out some podcasts I had planned.I'm prepping for an all eighties set at the BOOT on my May 23rd...4 hours of eighties straight with no breaks!!! get ready!!!
The turnstyle episode is a shorty but goody of a little bit of everything and served up the cornbread way. Madlib, Brothers Johnson, Spadeau Ballet,soul II soul, Eric B. & Rakim, Lester Graham, BIGGIE, Mtume, KRS one, Dela Soul, the motherhood, lalo schrifin, ghostface and of course i sprinkle the genius of Dilla and various samples used by the musical diety for listening pleasure. thank you for listening as always. LETS GO!! WARNING: the podcast is not for peeps with delicate ears as this contains some explicit lyrics...don't be scared.

a 50 plus minute set featuring MFSB, Milton Wright, LTD, the isley brothers, Herbie Mann, Cyamande and many sneaky breaks for your getdown pleasure. Enjoy. Big ups Montreal.Thank you.

Sorry so late on the delivery...

Apparently the last podcast was well received, that I was forced to do another set from the V-dubs creation. I will say that this is the first time I have gotten feedback from peeps to steer me in a direction to want to do more. There are some of you out there that would like to know some of the tracks I use for podcasts that you have never heard or are just curious to what the cuts are...which is why I'm going to release a track listing via email. All you have to do is leave feedback asking what you would like to know or just email me off my page and we'll get it poppin'.Sound off people?! Let me know where your hailin' from! I know that there are a lot of you out there listening now...tell me whassup. The more you talk, the more I make. The set is in part dedicated to the lower ninth ward in New Orleans. That place needs more love than you will ever come to imagine...

Ok. the mix was obviously cupid inspired...this a recreation of the opening set at the BOOT on valetines day. I hope that you enjoy it as always.Feel free to drop a line and let me know what you think. a little feedback could help me in the think tank process. thank you for listening! 8D

PEACE!!!
OK, so like this is a recording from August that was released on my man Skeme Richard's podcast entitled, "2 dolla soul".I fought with posting this because i wasnt sure if others had even heard it long enough to rock it. It subsequently was the reason i started podcasting. check it. It features my sidekick dj supervillian, Ill-literate hailing from philly on the 1's and 2's..to back up my 3's and 4's.

the second installment of ILLBRED.

yo. my man Midday stopped by today for a quick fireside chat... we strung some wax together to rock out with a cup of morning coffee...brought back some jems from the park days. Hope you enjoy...and as always thank you for listening.

a beat vegetable medley of hiphop.
