ROC RAIDA - OFFICIAL UK BENEFIT FUNDRAISER VIDEO


Grand Master Roc Raida: 1972 - 2009

Filmed on wednesday 27th October 2009  - Hosted by Tha En4cers (UK) in association with Vibe Bar

A very well shot & edited video montage of the roc raida tribute night - I felt honoured to be a part of it and to have shared the stage with so many UK legends..

R.I.P. Raida  - My only meeting with the man was brief, at a trade show where he cut it up on the decks with my brother Dj Daredevil, for such a legendary figure it was great to discover what a humble & straight up nice guy he is - & he blessed me with a ridiculously sick mixtape drop too! I'm pretty sure the x-men video 'in x-ercise' was the first scratching video me & my brother laid our hands on - a massive inspiration. Life is way too fragile, rest in peace grandmaster.

Bonus footage!  Roc Raida & Daredevil Q & A scratching:

BIG L TRIBUTE MIX

Had to post this one up for any that missed it.. copped this Big L tribute mix a couple of months back from dj soul's blogspot, released on his birthday (may 30th).

Why post up a mix that half the blog world posted up 2 months back? because it's one of the few things i've had in constant rotation on my ipod this summer, & if you missed it you need this in your life!! Big L is without doubt one of my all-time favourite MCs, & this mix is a fresh combination of classic material, freestyles, interviews & rare tracks - such a shame he passed away so early, his career had hardly started & was supposed to sign to rocafella just a week after his passing.. anyway my true heads know all that already, enjoy the mix!!

BluBlu Wall Paint Animation

This is nuts!!

A dope free mix, a short rant & a blatant plug ! (emcees & groups pay attention to the last part!)


I just got round to listening to a few recent downloads, & this one particularly caught my attention..

It's always worth checking for anything dj revolution has put his name to (his first lp is tha nutz!!) & this is no exception! It's a very nicely put together mix of classic breaks all cut up with presicion, complimented with plenty of vocal samples, & dope positive lyrics lacing the tracks throughout courtesy of Malcolm & Martin & friends. This is how MC's should do mixtapes!! fuck all these no-skills unmixed joints that are constantly churned out, get a real dj to make your shit sound hot !!

And on that note, if you are an MC or group, myself & DJ Daredevil (collectively known as the Brothers Grimm) are available to do just that, we will mix/blend/chop/ & master your tracks into a mix-cd for a small fee!! just hit me up at djmatman@gmail.com - wack / fake mcs need not apply!
Anyway, download that shit here.
