Episode 10: Remix the Mixtape

Mixtape Cover 3

Mixtape Insert

I dug out an old mix tape and some of my favorite vinyl off of it and decided to remix the mixtape. I originally made this tape in ‘99 under the name DJ Rook, but instead of remixing the whole tape I just selected my favorite songs and blends for your enjoyment.

Triangular Warfare- Mr. Lif
Like They Used to Say- Common

As you can see from the photo’s of the original mixtape I basically threw this tape together with a photo of a piece by Juan2, miscellaneous DJ photos, microsoft word, scissors, transparent tape, and a color photocopy machine courtsey of the folks at Gnomon Copy in between Central and Harvard squares. In high school that’s all I really had to work with. However, it was still a pretty fresh tape and since I still have all the vinyl that I used to make it, I took some of my favorite jams out of the crates and remixed the mixtape. Just to keep it old school I made sure to do a lot of backspins, juggles, and funky cuts for the party people out there. If you remember any of these tunes then give me a shout dammit!
