Lil Wayne "Where You At" (Red Hot Lover Tone Mix
Mobb Deep Feat. Nas "Thug Life" (Diamond's Smooth As Suede Mix)
Ghostface Feat. Raekwon "Apollo Kids" (Enigma Remix)
Peace Peace....This week I decided to give you a taste of my latest remix
project called "Progressive Retro". It took me over a year to make this joint,
it is my 10th Anniversary CD and I was trying to figure out what I could do to
top the Silver Album. I decided to dig deep in the crates, pull out some a
cappellas and instrumentals and mix & match. I play these out live and just
mess with people sometimes, they think most of them are actual remixes that
existed at some point in time because they don't know some of the records I'm
using, and they all sound official....peep the way the vocals break at just the
right spots along with the instrumentals. This mix is currently available for
sale at Sandbox (www.sandbox.pair.com) and
has been getting an incredible response from fans and pioneers all over the
world. MC Serch recently told me he has it in heavy rotation at the house and
in the car. Here are some samples, Lil Wayne over a Red Hot Lover Tone beat
sounding like a true 90's rapper....i really messed with folks on this one..left
dudes mad confused. Mobb Deep and Nas over an Ultimate Force
instrumental...crazy, and Ghost & Rae "Apollo Kids" over the classic
"Sadness" joint by Enigma..just sounds like something Ghost will probably do
eventually anyway...worked like a charm. I also wanted to combine methods from
the og DJ era and the digital DJ era to show how to make the 2 work to your
advantage.
