Set Sail – Private label jazz & modern soul mix

Sunday, July 18th, 2010

Found this on Soulstrut, it was compiled by a guy named The Gaffler. Let’s call this Yacht Soul – same vibes as your standard issue ‘best of Cross/McDonald mix’ but built with bits of Billy Dee Williams approved early 80s jazz and soul instead of AM Gold Rock. Great for soundtracking your laid back weekend balling activities.

This was the accompanying description:

Private label jazz & modern soul mix. No release date [198?]. There is some water damage on the cover from what looks to be red wine, and there is some sand inside the jacket. Nothing but smooth sailing from start to finish.

epigon A.D:M – “A hidden era made clearer ( The Lost Tapes 91-92)”

Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

epigone:

heres a tape I did with a friend in 1991 – 92
its a commentary on the Civil War in Ireland that was known as “The Troubles”

All beats are made with Vinyl, and Pause Button Four Track Tape techniques, no Samplers, and a pair of Headphones for a Mic.

Might not sound the coolest, but it’s a thorough listen given the era of its creation.

Here’s another miggity-mix. This time Junkfood gets in on the action. Tons of fun this go-round.

Peace,

Grip Plyaz – 6 Pack Volume 1: A Prelude To Purp, Wind & Fire

Friday, July 9th, 2010

I’ve been anticipating this. Step Out is great and I like the other Grip stuff I’ve heard previously. So I have a good feeling about this one.

DOWNLOAD: Grip Plyaz – 6 Pack Volume 1: A Prelude To Purp, Wind & Fire

Grip Plyaz is as country as it gets. His accent is as thick as the models he enlisted for his “Step Out” video, and his references are chock full of Southern-fried slanguage. With Volume 2 around the corner and Purp, Wind And Fire not too far behind, it looks as if the ATLien will be making waves this year. And it begins with 6 Pack: Volume 1, presented by DJ FU, Governed By Loyalty and TSS. Alongside the production of The Weathermen and with the the assistance of a few A-town natives, this mix is a precursor, one intended to raise familiarity with the artist and his sound. So grab yourself a cold Pabst Blue Ribbon, turn those speakers up and get ready to meet the man of the hour.

Props to TSS. Back cover with tracklist and more info is below.

Moon Wiring Club – “Elementary Ice Cream Sunstroke Mix”

Wednesday, July 7th, 2010

Have you been searching for a way to be involuntarily committed to a psychiatric institution? This should do the trick. Call your parents and play this for them over the phone. At least it’s a soundtrack worthy of going out to.

A whole whole lot of Big K.R.I.T.

Friday, July 2nd, 2010

I was getting my musical ducks in the row for the upcoming weekend, and I noticed I had a bunch of K.R.I.T. tracks laying around that weren’t on K.R.I.T. Wuz Here. So I put them together into a nice neat little folder, and then I figured there’s probably a few more out there that I don’t have. I scoured the internet, and I found ahem… a couple more, and my little folder swelled to 35 tracks. This guy has a hell of a work ethic.

Here it is then for your listening pleasure, 150mb worth of old and new random solo songs, freestyles, collaborations and guest appearances. It’s split into 2 zips to ease the downloading. I tried my best to avoid any crossovers with K.R.I.T. Wuz Here, but some of these can be found on other mixtapes (like The Last King for example).

MAYBE KIM KARDASHIAN!? Maybe indeed. Enjoy.
