Frankenstein “Live From New York (The Remixx Album)” (1996)

One of my favorite pieces from my vinyl collection. I picked this up back in 1996 just for Method Man's "P.L.O. Style" remix and I was pleasantly surprised with all the other tracks. In the last few years I've tracked down audio for just about everything that Frankenstein has ever done. I sure wish he'd come out from wherever he's hiding (a teacher in Canada?) and bless us with some new material.

Sounds Like The 90's (Volume 8)

Better late than ever...

I was actually waiting on a few tracks before I finalized this but I won't continue to bore you with semantics. Let's get right in to the mix, it's definitely more east coast heavy this time around but I feel it complete that proper summer blend I was going for. Enjoy! --Philaflava

Danger Mouse - DM Mix (98-01)

Before Gnarls Barkley, Danger Doom, The Grey Album, & bringing back Jemini The Gifted One, Danger Mouse was putting out his own hip-hop mixtapes which always included a handful of his early mash-ups or should I say blends. He released four promo mixtapes from 1998 to 2000. I hooked up all his remixes together into one folder full of Danger Mouse Remixes*. They were all well done. A blend that I really enjoy is Inspectah Deck's "Rec Room" vocals over Demastas "Feel No Guilt" instrumental. While a lot of the instrumentals used for the remixes were known to my ears, my three favorites which I included below didn't ring a bell. I think they were probably his own beats. All of you should enjoy these remixes, peep the samples below to give you a nice idea of the concept. Enjoy,

*One of the remix I included is from 2001 (wasn't on his promo mixtapes)

Ca$h Money Click

Representin' Hollis, Ca$h Money Click consisted of three hungry Queens emcees. In 1994, Group Members Ja Rule, Nemesis, & Chris Black released their first 12" inch titled"4 My Click B/W Get The Fortune". The 12" was really successful as Cash Money Click did videos for both tracks which you can see on Youtube. 4 My Click also featured an appearance by fellow Queens emcee Mic Geronimo who had already recorded his first single "It's Real" produced by CMC main producer DJ Irv(AKA Irv Gotti). Ca$h Money Click released a follow-up 12" titled "Get The Fortune (Remix) B/W She Swallowed It". Blunt Recordings only put out a few DJ-only promos of the 12" as it remains rare to this day. I have ripped it and I'm pretty sure that it's the first time it's available as a download. Also, "4 My Click B/W Get The Fortune" is the CD Single, not a vinyl rip. Cash Money Click never released a full album but I heard that one was recorded. I was recently given an unreleased CMC track from 1994 taken from one of their sessions by T.R.O.Y. member itzmurda; it was titled "Wartime".
