Dirty Jazz Beat
I heard this bass line today when I had the record I sampled it off of playing whilst I was doing some work in the yard, for some reason I immediately thought of the D'Angelo track and thought I might do a remix with the beat. At this stage I cant get the vocals to sit so I kind of dubbed it out a little and this is what I came up with. When I get a spare few hours I will try to get it to work, until then this is how it will sit.

Dj Spinna Mix
We have been wanting to do a tribute to this very under rated Dj/Producer for a long time, and last night a bunch of us got together and made this. Dj Spinna is a Brooklyn born and raised Dj, producer, remixer and artist. He began his recording career in 1994 as a member of the the underground hip hop group Jigmastas. Throughout his career he has broken down musical barriers between the worlds of hip hop, deep house, soul and jazz working with everyone from Mos Def, Masta Ace, Pharoahe Monch and Eminem, to Eric Roberson, N'dea Davenport, and Mary Mary to Stevie Wonder, Roy Ayers and Sergio Mendes. He has other notable side projects to his credit such as the Polyrhythm Addicts, the Free Radikalz and his alter ego Chopp Master Flopp which have also been released. His mixtapes are legendary with mixes like Strange Games and Funky Things remaining as one of my all time favorite mixes. You will have to excuse some of the beat mixing as we had 4 people in a studio being drunk and disorderly and I really struggled to hear :) and of course as usual recorded off 100% vinyl in one take
