King Of The Beats Birmingham 2009

Posted by Waxer | Posted in Audio, Battle Weapon, MP3 Download, UK Hip Hop History, Waxer Demo Track, podcast | Posted on 06-10-2009

Last Thursday I went down to the Hare & Hounds in the South of Brum. Got a lift with DJ Cro (respect for the grub mate!), then into the venue to meet Pogo, Sparkii, Pritt, Mikey D, Maurizio (RSC) Beatmaster and a load of proper Hip Hop heads. Kosyne came up as well and we had a chat, nice one mate ( http://louisden.com )

So I got on stage to do my bit, a little LL Cool J “I’m Bad” intro, followed by the beat. I did 3 parts to the beat as there was loads of material on the records I bought to make a beat out of… and Pritt got back £9 change from a score!

Here’s some pics:

The night was wicked, with Cro dropping a bad boy underground set, followed by Ian Beatmaster rockin the wheels, then it was me (no one to battle, my opponent Darren Myers never showed up) followed by Sparkki rockin the mic, some beatbox and freestytles, then Pogo ripped it up with some B Boys out the crowd doing their thing, followed by Mikey D tering up the stage!

What a night and to top it off Mikey D announced we are going to do a track together! Can’t ask for more than that!

So here’s the track I made, props to Pritt for his ongoing support love & dedication to Hip Hop, to Mikey forblessing the mic and still slamming MCs on cement after nearly 30 years in the game!

To Pogo/Cro/Beatmaster for killing it on the wheels of steel, Sparkii for all his hard work & ongoing commitment to the scene, Keith for all the background work you did (respect to the molecule), and to all the heads I spoke to in the crowd nuff respect for turning up and supporting real Hip Hop!

Lastly sorry to the geezer who’s head nearly got taken off when I threw my breaks into the crowd!

Simon Harris – Breaks, Beats & Scratches Volume 3

Posted by Waxer | Posted in Audio, Battle Weapon, Simon Harris, Vinyl Rip | Posted on 09-01-2009

bbs3_frontbbs3_backHere’s the 3rd installment of the Breaks, Beats & Scratches volumes… and by far the shittest yet!

I can’t help it, I got these for the scratches, but other than the 900 number loop and the scandalise loop, the rest is, well, plop. Even house lovers that know the “house” loops he made said they were gash.

Still, here it is… er, enjoy?

Anyway, enjoy!!!!

Simon Harris – Breaks, Beats & Scratches Volume 2

Posted by Waxer | Posted in Audio, Battle Weapon, Simon Harris, Vinyl Rip | Posted on 13-12-2008

Flippin’ back through the crates to another slice of Simon Harris Wax.  This time volume 2 is up.  My personal favourite out of the first 4 that he released, this deffo had some decent cuts.  The “woo yeah” break from Lyn Collin’ “Think” makes an appearance, as does the break from Eric B & Rakim’s “Paid In Full”, Soul Searcher’s “Ashley’s Roach Clip”.

Simon Harris Breaks Beats & Scratches Vol 1 Vinyl Rip

Breaks,Beats & Scratches Volume 1

Yes yes y’all, che, che a check check, check 1,2, dipping back into 1987 here’s the link for a vinyl rip I did for the Def Momentum blog for a mush named MOLE… if you haven’t visited the blog yet I suggest you do so with great speed and dexterity as there is much dope hip hop to fill your walkmans with.  To keep it real you’ll obviously have to spend 4 and a half years recording it all to tape so you can listen to it with proper authenticity.>>>>>link after the image…

Now THATS DOPE... I had a cheapie from the market with orange earphones...

Download me now!

Over the coming weeks I’ll rip the other 7 I’ve got (to be honest this is a bit of a nostalgia trip as to be honest, they were fairly arse even in 1987!  Still, it was better to scratch aaaaahhhh and fresh! on this than on my fab 5 freddy 12!  Apologies for the pops crackes & jumps (and worn out bits)

Enjoy…….
