Dunfyboy's DJ Hero Mix

Get it here.
Never did get that mix finished. Sony fixed the PS3 so I got distracted. Well, when I say fixed, I mean they just waited and did fuck all while keeping PS3 owners in the dark. And when I say Sony, I mean useless cunts. It may eventually see the light of day though.

Dunfyboy's Remix Mix

Click here to download this mix from Rapidshare.

I've had this mix in mind for a while after stumbling across I Prefer The Remix where I found a mp3 of Jon Carter's remix of Cubik (well, it saved me ripping it from the 12").

Some remixes are a complete waste of time. They might just change the beat slightly or have the breakdown run for a bit longer or stick a 4-on-the-floor drumbeat over a rock song to make a club remix. You'll often hear a "breaks" remix is just the original tune with amen breaks laid over the top. Speed it up and you've got a drum and bass remix (like the Rcola remix, but I couldn't help myself). On the other hand, some can prove more popular than the original.

Timo Mass' remix of Doom's Night is the one everyone thinks of when you mention the song, so much so that other remixes are based on this version rather than the original. Jam & Spoon's remix of Age Of Love became the definitive version and has appeared on more compilations than the original mix and, as you'll see with Ed Solo's take on it, sometimes you can totally reinvent an old song.

You might even find a remix gets overlooked because it's on the flipside of a classic. That's why I've used the Morning Time Mix of You've Got The Love. It never stood a chance against Erin's Bootleg Mix. The Now Voyager Remix is another example of breathing new life into an old song.

I'm sure there are other remixes you think may have been on this mix. I did consider Born Slippy Nuxx, but the Nuxx version bares no resemblance to the original so I've always thought of it as an original song in it's own right.

Hopefully there's something here you've never heard before. There's a lot more out there than the main mix they keep hammering on MTV or Radio One. Sometimes you have to dig a little deeper, and remixes like these are your reward.

Enjoy.

Dunfyboy's Ninja Mix

Link to MediaFire.

There's plenty I don't like about Ninja Tune. Playing the same drum loop over and over for 5 minutes with the odd sample or synth thrown in for a couple of bars isn't downbeat, it's just boring. Dropping a drum beat that's four times as fast as the rest of the track might be clever or innovative if the track was decent to start with, otherwise it just comes across as a self-indulgent waste of time. I swear a lot of there stuff would never have got past the demo stage if it wasn't on Ninja. Some of their artists just don't do anything for me, but because they're a "cool" label, there's always going to be some people (you know who you are!) who will buy it.

So, why do a mix of Ninja Tune? Because some of their stuff is as good as you'll find anywhere. This mix has all my favourite tracks from Ninja and their off-shoots Big Dada and Ntone. Besides, I want to be cool too :)

Of course, this is all just my opinion. You might think this whole mix is crap. But what if it's not? Get downloading and leave a comment either way.

Dunfyboy's Sugar Hill Mix

Download from MediaFire.

It's been a strange month. I've only upped a few mixes and, as a result, the downloads weren't even in treble figures till a few days ago when my DJ Shadow Mix was posted on the Solesides website. I really need to start spreading the word about my site. If only I wasn't so bloody lazy!!!

This will probably be the last mix of the month. It's a tribute to one of the oldest of old school hip hop labels - Sugar Hill Records.

It's first release, Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight", came out in 1979. It sampled the bass line from Chic's "Good Times" which led to the label being sued. It wasn't the only lawsuit filled against the label in it's all too brief existence. Even Grandmaster Flash sued. This, along with contract disputes, caused many of the artists to leave and the label folded in 1986.

A short but sweet experience then. 20 plus years on, some of the rhymes may sound a little dated (I guess the star sign thing worked with the ladies at the time) and I never could work out why having butter on your toast was bragging or being boastful, but the label gave us some true classics and I think it's fair to say the world of hip hop would have turned out differently without it.

The first Sugar Hill track I heard was as a 10 year old back in 1984. My dad had a C90 he used to play in the car with Kreftwerk's "Autobahn" on one side and various other songs, including "White Lines", on the other. So you can thank my old man for this mix.

Enjoy.

Dunfyboy's Old School Electro & Hip Hop Mix

Download from MediaFire.

AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH! More router problems: no wireless connection, dropped lines halfway through an upload. It's doing my head in. If BT ever offer you a Home Hub, tell them to stick it up their arse!!! This mix should have been upped right after my DJ Shadow Mix. Anyway ...

On my travels round the net I stumbled on an old school electro mix by a guy called Bamboo. Check it out at Def Momentum's blog.

It made me want to do my own electro mix, which I kinda haven't done as I wouldn't really class all these tracks as electro (hence the mix name) and "Walking On Sunshine" wouldn't have sounded out of place on my Classic House Mix, but they're all from the early 80s and it all comes together in another awesome Dunfyboy mix. (Nothing wrong with a bit of shameless self-promotion, right?)

There's about a dozen or so songs that feature on both Bamboo's and my own mixes, but I'd still recommend downloading both mixes (mine first, obviously :-)

Anyway, here it is. Enjoy.

01 - Boogie Down (Bronx) - Man Parrish
02 - I'm The Packman (Eat Everything I Can) - The Packman
03 - One For The Treble - Davy DMX
04 - Freaks Come Out At Night - Whodini

PS - Don't worry if you think there should've been more from the Sugar Hill label. That's next.

***EDIT*** Blogger have killed Def Momentum's blog. Guess someone reported him for sharing out of print 12"s. Twats. Anyway, if you want to get the page with Bamboo's mix on it, it's still in Google's cache so click here
***EDIT 2*** Even the cached page is gone now, but here's a link I found for it http://collectiveindustries.com/mixes/Bamboo_LastNightADjSavedMyLife_Mix.mp3

Dunfyboy's DJ Shadow Mix

Download from MediaFire.

Well, it's been a while, hasn't it?

When I posted my Nightshift Mix I mentioned it was intended to be a DJ Shadow mix. It started of well but after just 3 tracks DJ Vadim crept in, then Hexstatic, then Depth Charge. You get the idea. So, here, at last, is my DJ Shadow mix.

This mix has a bit of everything - early Mo' Wax head-nodders from "Entroducing" and "Preemtive Strike", more rap (& guitar?!?) orientated stuff from "The Private Press" and "The Outsider" and, of course, a tune or three from his collabaration with James Lavelle on UNKLE's "Psyence Fiction " . There's the dance-floor freindly remix of "Six Days" from Soulwax and Shadow's own remix of Eric B & Rakim's "Let The Rhythm Hit Em". Even Shadow's live version of "Organ Donor" from "Live! In Tune And On Time".

Enjoy. I know you will.

Public Enemy have been going for over 20 years now and along the way they've released some of the best rap songs you could hope to hear.

Although their later rhymes may not have the impact of their earlier stuff this mix does have the odd recent tune in it. Most of the tunes though come from their first four albums: Yo! Bum Rush The Show, It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back, Fear Of A Black Planet and Apocalypse 91-The Enemy Strikes Black. These albums are my favourites, maybe because I first heard them as a nipper, maybe because they've been sampled on so many other records that I bought. Who knows? If you want to check out PE, get these 4 first. I've seen them live twice and if you get a chance, I'd recommend it.

Anyway, enjoy. And remember, if you've time to download the mix, you've time to tell me what you think of it.

Dunfyboy's Hip Hop Mix 2

Download from MediaFire.
I first heard Ill Culinary Behaviour on DJ Yoda's How To Cut & Paste Vol 2. It's a clever tune with the premiss of Format and Abdominal hosting a dinner party, but they serve up beats & rhymes instead of food & drink. Abdominal's food fascination continued on his debut album "Flowtation Device" with "Fast Food". Ugly Duckling gave us the anti-vegan "Meatshake" and these three tunes start off this mix with a decidedly tasty theme.
I wanted to mix these 3 tunes together, but after that it was just a case of whatever comes next. I try to use different tunes in each mix but you'll notice some of these have been used in other mixes (it was the middle of this mix that made me decide to record my Funk Mix) but like I say, I only got as far as planning the first 3 tracks.
Enjoy

OK. Re-recorded this mix and I'm happier with this now. I dropped Baby's Got Back off the end of the mix and slipped They Reminisce Over You in. Both feature on upcoming mixes anyway, but I figured TROY deserved to be in this one too, as this is a sort of Hip Hop's Greatest Hits mix type thing (not that BGB didn't deserve to be in here, but something's got to give).

You might (should?) know all the tunes on here. If not, you're in for a treat. And if you do, fuck it, you'll download it anyway, won't you?

Remember to leave a comment. It's been weeks since anyone bothered and I'm getting pissed off again :(

Enjoy.

Beastie Boys Vids

I listened back to the hip hop mixes I was going to post and their not as good as I'd like them to be so I'm going to re-record them. In the meantime, here's some more vids from the Beastie Boys.

Dunfyboy's Something A Little Different Mix

Download from MediaFire.

This mix came about after I was messing about with some old indie stuff (Stone Roses, The Soup Dragons, Primal Scream, Beats International) and grew from there.

It kind of goes all over the place but I quite like that. I'm particularly happy getting Magik Roundabout's "Everlasting Day" into a mix as it was a real favourite of mine back in the day, a great feel-good summer tune. Its cover is the basis for the artwork for this mix. I'm also pleased getting Jimi into a mix and I really like the way "Son Of A Preacher Man" mixes into "For What It's Worth". The "Springfield Effect", I guess you could call it. Simple things please simple minds.

Apologies for the obvious mixes ("He Got Game" into "For What It's Worth", 2 versions of "No Woman, No Cry") but at least I managed to avoid "Hits From The Bong" after "Son Of A Preacher Man".

You might recognise "Heartbeats" by José González from the Sony Bravia advert with the bouncing balls. It's mixed into 2 Deep's "Life Party". It was used in a Reebok advert in 1991/92. It's the one with a white line across the screen. It gets hurdled over, then it's a lane marker in a sprint, then it's the bar for the high jump, then it's the finishing tape in a race or something like that. I haven't explained it very well (and no one I know remembers it) but if you saw it all those years ago you would know what I'm on about.

Anyway, download, sit back and enjoy.
