I like the scratches on that

anyone ever heard of the Vinyl Reanimators? theyre a group of producers they make some good beats and remixes

Raw Produce - Make A Mark (VR Remix)
AZ - Doe or Die (VR Remix)
Rakim - Guess Who's Back (VR Remix 1)
Scientifik - Slicka Picka Upper <---- my ideal drums in a hip hop song, plus the Boogie Down Productions sample is classic.

^My favorite beats are off the Ironman and Cuban Linx albums, but that's just because he perfected the mobster/gangster sound, basically creating a blueprint for anyone who wants to do it the right way. You might even catch Jadakiss, Tony Yayo and other New York mixtape mainstays freestyling to these beats once in a while right now. That being said, I equally enjoy the Shadowboxing sound from GZA's first album. The funny thing about RZA is that he exemplifies what someone can do if they just stick to originality. He never got stuck on other sounds or even his own, and unlike a lot of the more intellectual rap music out there, RZA managed to connect to white people like me as well as the poverty from which he came.

Raekwon - Glaciers of Ice

RZA just has this way of taking a normal sample and twisting it into something that you might hear in some 17th century mansion in Transylvania.

Then he can turn around and make a beat that bangs for everybody:

Wu Tang - Chrome Wheels
 
Death Grips - The Money Store (album)

Great production, great lyrical theme, and sounds like a more accessible version of flying lotus's los angeles album
