Reading back over this thread makes me realize how on-point Bombo was a YEAR ago.

Ya, you guys should really listen to me more often.

Mark Pritchard - Natty

TRG - Broken Heart (Martyn DMX Remix) [vs. DJ Rashad & DJ Manny]

Machinedrum - Boxoff

Dawn Day Night - Voodoo Vibe

Also really been loving what the Juke sound has done to Drum and Bass. Tons of 85bpm stuff coming out with juke influences.

Stray - Professor Popper

Halogenix - Each His Own

It's mostly been Ivy Lab coming out with this stuff, but there's a lot of artists just getting into it. Watch the 85bpm game for more of this stuff, its taking off!
 
As fire as Natty is, Jack is still my personal favorite from that release.

Mark Pritchard - Jack

Watch the 85bpm game for more of this stuff, its taking off!
Too true, too true. The amount of halftimed shit comin out is ridiculous.


Machinedrum - Heavy Weight

Shake It Maschine X Mr. Pigman X Thomas White - B.O.M.D. (Birds on my Dick)

Shake It Maschine & Mr. Pigman - Cosmic Lunch (Kackmusikk Remix)

DJ Rashad & Heavee D - Its Wack
 
i never bumped any of his shit heavy but it was undeniable the impact and influence he had, if it were not for him some of my fav tunes from years ago would not exist.

Early summer of 2012 Spinn and Rashad came by my studio in Berlin. We did what we always do when we hang out, trade music and samples. I think I gave them a folder of rave stabs that I had received from Om Unit. In return they gave me an amazing library of samples titled “wordz and dropz”. They explained to me that it was a collection of vocal recordings used in a lot of classic Juke and Footwork tunes. The samples were incredible, everything from “Hold up, Wait a Minute” to “If you see ‘em, point ‘em out”. They told me they knew everyone in the recordings and that the samples had been passed around between fellow Chicago Juke/Footwork DJs for years. I was truly blessed to get such an amazing collection.
