Its time to take it back to oLD sKool...

Having listened to f****** garbage daring to describe itself as 'mixing', hip-hop and ersatz progressive on the Digital Wireless Device tonight, talked over by f****** motormouth 25 year olds I have taken it upon myself to remind the world what oLD sKooL really was.

If any of you remember Gary Crowley and the Red Box Club (Capital Radio...London) then you'll remember the time of vinyl heroes, when DJ's and mix kings relied solely on their ears and rhythm and Pioneer mixing decks to create an effective and in a lot of cases, very clever dance mix, not 2456 track NASA signed-off electronic mixing labs.

For those of you who don't even know what proper house, hip-hop and oLD Skool, was, before that w*nker Westwood first wigga'd, I provide for your further listening pleasure.....

I'm sure those true afficianados out there that know what I mean, will add to this.Remember, it ain't nothing without the sampling...

Much more modern than the era I'm talking about Ally, but I suddenly have an overwhelming desire to get off my tits on disco biscuits and cider and dance in a field

Remember, this is oLD sKOol

True oLD sKool mixing is with tape cassettes

Vinyl is for showing off CLICKY (It is damn good though).

Laptops are the future!

 

you cant get the same spinback effect on lappies or CDJ's but that a wicked youtube...

try 2 many DJ's they are cheesyeaters but have a few good mixes from them almost a mash up in style but interesting never the less.

 

Not as much as Arby and my good self
