YUM YUM Comic Book of Saturday November 17th. Not much to say about this one… but see for yourself. Might be some spelling issues…. don’t be mad. I’m still recovering…
“One fine morning” YUM YUM Version :
Just a tune i did recently: It is a song that i like to put on when i get up or before i leave the house. That’s why i called it “One fine morning” – that kind of vibe in a song sings of a beautiful tomorrow – a new morning in another world. It reminds me of waking up at my fathers house at the seaside, where i was born, with the sun shining on your belly. Those were the days…
The song smoothes me out but not in a narcotizing way – it rather amps me up with calmness (if that is possible). I love her (MJB) vocals on top of a straight production with the sample saying: northern soul, rocksteady, ska, original soulful music. i guess the soul in it makes me like that piece and put it on repeat in my itunes/winamp… whatever. If you are into these kind of tunes i guess you will have the same kind of appreciation and usage for this song as i do. Its also perfect for any dancefloor. Here is a good quality 256kb version. Ps – I like to play it loud and you are definitely gonna hear it at this Fridays YUM YUM Bday…
A new YUM YUM coming this Friday, November 16th. Not just any regular YUM YUM night but it’s our anniversary and instead of making it a conventional night, we more wanted to bring back together all the people that started out the entire thing. Instead of making it a big bash its better to spend time with your family on your birthday, isn’t it? Meaning the Djs will be Jaws, Schu, Roots Rockers & Chrome playing all their favourite tunes and the tunes they identify most with YUM YUM. I love the idea of all of us getting down together for one night. Will be a lovely night…
Maybe we’ll even do categories. Like play your fave YUM YUM tunes of 2005 or something. Lets see about that. But you’ll be in for a treat.
Enjoy all the other new posts below and make sure to recheck this months YUM YUM top tune selection and both of our favourites – our version of Alicia Keys’ new hit and our interpretation/edit of Al Greens classic “New World” tune.
YUM YUM Comic book of Friday November 2nd. Not much too say, but was a nice and enjoyable night but i would say that about anything after Wednesday nights “Award Tour” which i anticipated to be a night with a hiphop flavour but not a mid 90ies jam with no variety at all – Wednesday had nothing to do with YUM YUM. Hiphop is for kids these days and i simply refuse to live in the past. There is too much greatness out there.*********Anyhow don’t be fooled by me – Friday was a good night – it was a YUM YUM night and i was still mentally somewhat tangled up in my thoughts – thats why i couldnt enjoy it that much, but the crowd did, and i am so much looking forward to the next YUM YUM on October 16th, which is also our anniversary. Bday time with all our original cast Chrome, Roots Rockers, Schu & Jaws. Gonna be great. Dont forget to check out our monthly YUM YUM top tunes – ps – i redid No.1 (“Falling for You”) because it sounded …well bad when i played it, so i reupped it yesterday – before my damn net crashed – so all i am saying is: makesure to recheck it.
PS plenty more news coming tomorrow – my internet should be fixed by then – so i dont have to go netbummin..
“Falling For You (YUM YUM Version)“. Had to throw this together. A nice version of a couple of good old tracks and that new Alicia Keys tune “No One”. With tons of remixes circulating a more floor friendly was missing… And instead of playing the old retro hiphop i rather like to incorporate it into new tracks and play them through the new mixes. “Falling For You” consists of one of my fave drumbreaks, replayed by Schu on his MPC, some 3 years ago for our old Live Band “the Beat Brothers”, which was some kind of a Live Mashup Band. This very break was first originally used by Slick Rick on “Mona Lisa” in 1988 and later on used for the Method Man/ Mary J Blige “You’re all i need” Remix in 1995. Both these tracks were killer tunes in their own time. On top goes an absolutely classic acapella that is very rare: Nas’ “The World is Yours”, one of the stand out tracks from his omni-influential album “Illmatic” in 1994. ***Enjoy this YUM YUM version of the new Alicia Keys track and make sure to play it out loud.
