It's My Brain.. Laid out Flat...

FlashBack Friday #00083 – Ithaca Audio

shaolin2000 — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 08:18:34 +0000

I haven’t had a lot of spare time this week, but I did come across something REALLY cool, it’s some old school music mashed up in a new school way. The thing I like is the video where he presses the buttons and turns on the appropriate music video when that tune comes in..

I reckon you’ll love it, they are the best mashup videos I have seen on the web so far…

Rolling in the beats (live mashup)

Don’t hold back, just push things forward

Walking in your mind (live mashup)

Just while we are talking about mashup videos the other one that I have come across that I absolutely love:

The words on the video are majorly annoying and I don’t even like Will Smith’s Switch but the mix is tight!!

Basement Jaxx are universally great, doesn’t matter which part of the globe you are from if you have heard Basement Jaxx you have a little special place in you heart for them.. Not only do they make good music they also make great music videos.. There are so many good ones everyone has one they like..

FlashBack Friday #00081 – Wookie

shaolin2000 — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 07:43:24 +0000

From Last weeks major Hip Hop & RnB producer I thought I would bring you one of the Giants in the Garage game. Wookie is one of the big players in the game when it comes to making and remixing tunes. I’m gonna bring you 3 of his tunes that you’ll probably know but now you have to choose one to vote on..

Back Up To Me

Battle

What’s going on?

Feeling these there is a bucket load more wookie out there like “Down on Me”, “Storm” & “Scrappy”. You should also be aware that wookie is one half of the X-Men (not the Marvel superheros) so you’ll find a whole bunch of remixes by them.

FlashBack Friday #00080 – Pharrell Williams

Well pretty much everything Pharrell touches turns to gold so I thought I’d pick 3 that he majored on. He has featured on some PROPER big tunes but I’ll save that for a later day..

FlashBack Friday #00079 – House Party II

shaolin2000 — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 07:34:16 +0000

This week I have been getting down with the house party films, the first is clearly a classic, but when they realised that a second would sell they made the film all about the music..

And boy did they do well?

FlashBack Friday #00078 – The Diary of a Mad Band

shaolin2000 — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 09:05:36 +0000

90′s RnB was dominated by Jodeci, when they released Diary of a Mad Band it changed the face of mixtapes forever. I don’t dare to think the number of children that got made when this album was put on!

shaolin2000 — Fri, 09 Dec 2011 18:52:35 +0000

I have a new favourite Riddim! It’s the good love riddim, it’s not as shake bottom as my old favourite riddim (The Buzz Riddim) but this one is one of those head nod ones that I cannot resist.

It was hard to choose 3 but I eventually got there:

Call On Me – Jah Cure (feat. Phyllisia Ross)

Good Love - Wayne Marshall

Forever Your Girl – Tami Chynn

Other people who jumped on the Riddim are:

Melody To My Song – Christopher Martin

Butterfly – Gyptian

One of the best mixes on youtube is the Dj Plink one you can download this mix from the music section on his website.

FlashBack Friday #00076 – Artful Dodger

shaolin2000 — Fri, 02 Dec 2011 07:25:57 +0000

It’s all about the stragglers was a massive album I still now sometimes bring it to work and listen to it end to end. I’ve been doing it this week and it’s been hard to just choose just three.. I decided to stick to the big ones even though my favourite is not in the list…

Please Don’t Turn Me On (feat. Lifford)

Movin’ Too Fast (feat. Romina Johnson)

Woman Trouble (With Robbie Craig & feat. Craig David)

Half of Artful Dodger is still making fat beats.. you should check out: Could just Be The Bassline

FlashBack Friday #00075 – Phil Collins

shaolin2000 — Fri, 25 Nov 2011 07:17:41 +0000

I cannot believe I have done this many Flashback Fridays and not done Phil Collins, every so often I have a Phil Collins day at work and I dig out his greatest hits and bang them out for the day.

It’s not very cool to like Phil Collins but it’s great sing along music…

FlashBack Friday #00074 – Mariah Carey

The woman is hot!!! No one can argue that she isn’t a great singer, however people say (and I agree with them) that she is Madder than a box of frogs!

Remember when someone had a go at me because of some of the strange people I like and I told them why I didn’t choose her?

She’s smoking but you can imagine her putting razor blades in your dinner for finding lipstick on your shirt!

Anyway, here are 3 of the big ones:
