Lauryn Hill & Bob Marley – Turn Your Lights… by tesagan

A true YUM YUM classic and that has always been the soulful vibe of our parties that only gets lost when you put ego first. It has been in my dj selection ever since it’s been first released and like a few Lauryn Hill tunes, hard to argue with quality and emotion. I’ve seen people shazaming this tune, i’ve heard the worst remixes of this amazing tune, i’ve witnessed crack-a-lacking djs call their over intellectualized djsets soulful while they miss out on that pure soulful love vibration – pretty much like that old Coke ad “Nothing beats the real thing!”.

This Skarra Mucci Tune Is The Real Deal. Next Time I Play It I Expect You To Go Ape Sh*t!

Dear fellow white people there are two ways for us to dance to this tune:

The first one is to follow your girl lead the way with her obscene, nonconformist aristocratic way of circle jerking her ankles or…

…or ladies follow your man and do what white folks do best: Jump around uncontrollably find out for yourselves that you can’t jump high, but you can do it more annoyingly often than a grashopper on cocaine, paired with the extra bonus skill to spill everyones drink simultaneously. And no matter which of those two white-people-exclusive-talents you happen to prefer by 1:02 i expect you to lose it and go ape shit to this brockout tune.

I am a complete sucker for D&B riddems and breaks and with some extra percussion, (off drums, tambs etc) this could have been even more of a brockout anthem. Anyways choooon! Horns please!

Pete Rock’s “Roy Ayers Tribute Mix” Is Packed With Essential Classic Soul And Hip Hop. !

Pete Rock hit me! ‘Nuff respect due, when they reminisce over you..
…or in this case Roy

Pete who kind of invented a big slice of hip hop production in the real early 90s did a superb mixtape with Roy Ayres originals and Hip Hop Classics that exclusively use Roys timeless compositions as their sample source. Some classic Tribe, X-Clan, Brand Nubian and so forth. In 2014 where Mos & Kweli are seen as old school, i am truly thankful for such a great mix. I once met Pete in 1999 for some kind of interview i did for some mag and the man’s chill as hell. Big fan here of him and even more of Roy Ayres. So, cool mix if you like your Hip Hop served with some proper soulful music. Tectake bietet Ihnen hochwertige Produkte für Ihr Heim – entdecken Sie die Auswahl auf tectakegermany.com .
