AUDIO: DJ Monk One Funk/Soul Mix

Rare Radio was amazing last weekend, does anyone out there have all of them archived? Anyone willing to trade?

Yo.

Monk One this is ya sickest mix yet!

I'm listening to this while in the office so I'll dip back in here and there with titles.

But yo,
Uphill peace of mind

knock him out sugar ray (on the dc go-go tip)

get me back on time

papa was too

the age of aquarius/let the sunshine in

n.t. (i forgot this had a drum break. I always use it for horns breaks)

heaven and hell

yo, monk one, would I be in violation if I tell these dudes what record collection these breaks come from? (hint: 26 records)

anyways, this set is fuckin rockin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-Black People

Sing, sing -- gaz

Groove to the get down - T COnnection

(that my secret shit! Stop doin that!)

Ohio Players - Funky Granny

I cant stop -- ??
The grassroots -- you and love are the same

Yo, y'all member how Primo set it on the Moment of Troof album? About dudes tellin' on the original records that get sampled (exact words: "Stop doin that y'all are violatin'".)

This was in 98 right?

I wonder how do he and the other pioneers feel about these mixes. Has anyone heard like a statement from those guys? or is just spinning the records not the same as putting out a collection?

I wonder what's thier take on this sort of thing...

-Black People

slippin into darkness (obviously) but this ain't the war version

Heard ya voice at the end of the set, Smooth.

The way you was being naive about real hiphop (or the finest in hiphop as you put it) and bashin KRS a little while back, I was startin' to think you wuz white.

Hearing ya voice set things straight.

Thanks for the set.

Out.

-Black People

Hey BP-
good (so far!)
But believe this ain't from no Ultimate Breaks and Beats! All originals my friend. As far as 'how do the pioneers feel about these mixes' - i've personally gotten nuthin but love playing similar sets with folks like herc, red alert, crazy legs in the place. we aren't laying it all out there like one of those comp records or whatever. it's up to you to put 2 + 2 together... -m

no doubt, incredible mix. wish i had more time for some ids. got avalanched with work. maybe i'll come thru in a bit. good to see BP on it. Les-Boogie with the cleanup?

Oh ok,
Peace then Monk One.

Mad respect for havin' the originals

makes this set even more classic.

I was wondering what the greats thought. You 'member when primo did set it back in the day tho right? and pete rock was fuming over that pete's treats bullshit.
But it's good to hear that Herc and my main man Kool D.J. Red Alert are showing love.

Please keep up the real, Monk I appreciate it.

Ay yo, what are the drums on Give the drummer some (ultramagnetic)- and teachers don't teach us nonsense And rat bastard by prime minister pete nice as well as time to flow by nice and smooth.

all of these jawns use the same drum break but I can't find it!

I was thinking it's that "there was a time" jawn on the james brown gettin down to it album
you know the one for Chubb rock's treat em right and super lover cee and casanova rud's in too deep remix? i was thinking maybe ced-gee just took like the left channel out or something

But I haven't put it in my sampler to test the theory out.

I think the drums are somewhere else.

Can you help a young G out?

My gift: http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/7397.html
it's four of these.
get these
you probably already have them tho.

Peace and thanks again,

-Black People

BP --
that classic drum break is "funky drummer" by JB! originally avail only on a 7" with the break ending side one. it was later edited by the legendary Danny Krivit. The reedit (drum break in the middle of a continous song on one record side) is available on the '84 JB LP "into a jungle groove" and more recently on an urban 12" backed with the OTHER main JB break "funky president" NASTY!

HEY! I'll be running game on the Railroad this saturday night, stay tuned!!

bless the listeners >> djOneman

Hey Thanks Oneman!!

But I have that album (on the cover it looks like JB is sitting in a cell) it has everthing on it
get up get involved, give it up or turn it loose without crowd noise

i listened to it over and over and it's on UBB # --I forget which number but it's the one with Ashley's roachclip on it.

But it ain't on that song.

I know that's what some of those websites say that it is but I've listened to Funky Drummer repeatedly.

On Give the drummer some by ultramagnetic, I'm not talking about the chorus when they cut "g-g-g-give the drummer some of ths funky soul we got here" I'm talking abou the basic drums that run through the whole song.

The beatminerz used them again for Poppa Large.

Any ova suggestions?

In fact on that CRAZY Lord Finesse mix on Monk One's page Lord Finesse cuts up the give the drummer some break but you'll see those aint the drums.

Thanks and good lookin' out.

What other jam you think it might be??

A young brother need some hizzelp.

-Black People

Yo Oneman,
A couple things:

First I just listeded to the beats on ya page.

number 4,6,12,15 are all rockin'

number 13 is A SUPER ROCKIN MEGA CLASSIC!!!!

I don't know what you were doing at the end with your sampler if you were like playing around or something.

But when you let that shit rock, it's bangin'.

Yo they used to have this thing in Philly called the beatsociety (dopest invention ever - peace to stef tataz) where producers would bring their weapon of choice (sp1200, MPC 60-200XL, KORG Tritons, ASR10s) through and just catch wreck for the crowd playing their beats. Early on Kanye came through and rocked some of his harder shit this was before his first album.

but yo, number 13 on your page should have some sort of exposure. at least like that.
throw a dirty emcee on that shit put out an indie single and people gon say you bringin hiphop production back

second,
I couldn't listen to number 7 because you used a sample that you spun that's been haunting me.

I need the name of that record.

Back in the day when the links on this page worked and it streamed the old shows, you had spun that record with the fat bassline, flutes and all and I was like what the fuck?? WHat song is this??!

Yo, can I get a name on that record?

Look out for the cookout.

And of course I come bearing gifts. Here are some gems you might wanna pick up.

David T. Walker - Plum Happy

Jai Santooshi Maa Soundtrack - I forgot

The Mighty Mellow #3 - Various

Out.

-Black People

DAMN!

I am straight bangin number thirteen right now!

I hate to think that there are beats out there that I can't buy let alone even hear!!

Yo Smooth,
maybe you could have a litte link or something where you post beats that your squad makes or something or where your readers can send in beats. Or something

but yo, take note everyone: number 13 on one man's page is a real hiphop beat.

-Black People

This mix is off the hook.!!
Definately one of your best mixes Monk.!!
Yea....there are some obvious choices there, but who cares, every track is a winner and there is a good balance of familior breaks, classics and some lesser know breaks that I don't know, but would like to find out.

Hey BP-

Those "Give the Drummer Some" drums are notorious. Where are they from? Supposedly, Paul C. isolated them from the right channel of a stereo Dee Felice record. As oneman noted, he also dropped a little bit of "funky drummer" in for sabor (the drum roll).

Still, it's a bit of a mystery. I don't have a stereo Dee Felice (mono version has no open drums) so i can't check. Pete Rock told me a couple years ago "I still don't know how he got those drums".

For the definitive Paul C. story, written by the un-duplicate-able legend Dave Tompkins, check this link. Absolutely necessary knowledge for the advanced digger:

Thanks for filling in the blanks Monk, I will hunting down quite a few of those joints for sure.
It was your good self who put me on to the "Mad Dog & the Pups" joint. Heard you play it on the VoxPop45 radio show in the U.K last year.
Do you have any U.K gigs lined up for this year..??
If so let me know if you are interested in playing at my night in Scotland.(www.myspace.com/thegoodfootclub)

AHA!!

I though that what it was.

It's not on the Dee felice album it's on the jab jawn

it is in stereo

I guess paul c must've done that then threw it on one those bet comps like that dude from england used to have. you know what I'm talking about?

but yo the jb album is "Mr James brown getting down to it. and the last cut is there was a time.
even the reissue is in stereo.

you can get a copy anywhere.

thanks!

good looking out!

-Black People

(I'll try it slow it down and see if it works)

Yo
I just got the shit schooled outta me from the Paul C. piece.

I always wondered who he was and why he was on the follow the leader album.

now I know.

good looking out Monk one

thanks

-Black People

Yes indeed. Thanks to Dave T. for the great research and writing. I know he's still working on the Paul C. story so stay tuned...

Martin Jay I'll be in the UK in October. Would love to get to Aberdeen. Hit me up on the email.
