Disco Scratch

Right you lot, for every day in August there will be a fresh Old School UK download for you in the forum.

When you go to the forum and look at the boards, there is a section entitled “UK Hip Hop Downloads upto 1994″. You will see the mixtape, live performance & radio show sections always, but the other download boards require you to have the status of MUTANT ROCKER. This means you need to have at least 5 posts before you can access those sections.

For example, todays download is The Hardrock Soul Movement 12, “The Beat Is Mine”.

The post is here: http://discoscratch.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=68.0

If you click the link above but cannot see the post then you need to post some more to get to it. Now I’m only doing this to drive some more traffic to the forum and engage more people in conversations about the golden age of UK rap.

Hopefully this will raise the profile of the forum and draw some more people in. I am tweeting automatically all the forum posts now and each new download will be highlighted on the main DS site.

All stuff I am uploading will be vinyl rips from my own collection, MP3s at 320kbps/16 bit/44.1khz/stereo quality, which basically means you won’t get a better quality rip off the vinyl ANYWHERE!

This is a great chance for you to get your ears round some quality old tunes. Please help the community grow by ripping your own wax to MP3 and sharing your stuff with other like minded people to ensure we keep the old school alive!

Props to you all in advance for getting involved, peace, WAXER.
