Chill...A Beatnut.!...Beatnuts-The Nuts Remix Files...
First up, yep I have indeed done a post on the infamous Corona, Queens cats before but this one is a little different to that one and that one
http://coldrockdaspot.blogspot.com/2007/01/lets-take-trip-to-nutshop.html
(sorry if the You Tube links don't work anymore)
was actually my first ever post and with the way the 45 King, PMD, Gang Starr, EPMD etc comps are going, I felt it was time for a 21 track compilation (mix, fat tape) of strictly Beatnuts remixes. (by they way infinite thanks for the awesome feedback and comments and to my new readers, welcome and to my blog family...word up.
I personally feel that the Big City album
was heavily slept on and there are some great tracks on it,in fact I like the whole album, but I do however feel that because JuJu was missing from it, it would have been a different album.
If you aren't feeling this album, get a friend that has a super fat stereo system in his car and then really hear it, or play it on your stereo loud to get the full effect, how anyone can not feel the bugged synth on "Big City" or the addictive loop and deep bassline on "Runnin' Around" is beyond me.
What I love the most about The Beatnuts, apart from their classic beats,basslines, horns and dope loops and amusing rhymes, is their true dedication, almost every year, they are there either producing, doing a remix or rhyming on someone else's records and they have been doing that since the early 90's.
Yes, Ju and Les will return with another album most likely next year but man, I just don't understand why Al Tariq can't be there as well...third of the trio remember.
here is the comp my good peoples...
