Babylon & badminded weakhearts need fi EASE UP pon di yoots dem….cultural warriors come fi bring foundational chunes fi di awakening!! It’s a dancehall renaissance……..STRICTLY VINYL!!
I still don’t understand why a strictly vinyl mix is a plus. In 2012 it just means you’re rich, the days of thumbing thru vinyl no one knew about is over. Now it’s just bidding wars on ebay. So if I see a mix proclaiming “ALL VINYL” and I never heard of that DJ before last year then it’s prolly some trust fund kiddie who bought a Strictly Breaks comp for the first time in 2002.
And if wearing out your rare breaks is so worth it why did Bambaataa and Flash and them go to disco studios and cut extended disco edits of their own break records on acetate? The point was to extend the breakbeat, no one cared if you were using two records to do it or just made an edit…
That being said, I’m more about selection and mixing, I don’t care what media the songs in question were reproduced with
