Can someone tell me the break they're rapping over here? It's not Magic Disco Machine's "Scratchin", is it?

It seems like the Egyptian Lover/Wreckin Cru era is pretty well documented, and there are some decent oral histories available covering the late 70/early 80s, but I haven't turned up much in the way of actual audio examples of either a) live hip hop DJ and/or MC routines from the West Coast...

Anyone know what record he's cutting up here?

I seem to remember a Madlib 12" remix from around 2003-2004 that chopped up "Jam On It" or "Let's Jam" or one of those Newcleus tracks. I'm pretty sure I own the record, too, but I can't find it, and a discogs search under various Madlib projects and aliases hasn't turned up anything. Could...

Looking beyond the great upstart house labels like Trax, Dance Mania, KMS, DJ International, Alleviated, etc. etc. What are some DEEP early house trax on major labels (excluding re-releases)? This thread was inspired by this recent discovery:

I've been doing a lot of podcast listening lately. Just wondering if anyone can point me to some good hip-hop shows, preferably for new music listening- the more diverse the better- not just classic old school sets, etc.

Like many sellers I'm sure, I was stripped of Power Seller status and benefits awhile back due to ebay's change of criteria for the program. The only category I have fallen short of since the change is the $3000 domestic sales minimum, yet I have always been comfortably above their total sales...

I'm heading to Mexico City on Saturday, then down to Oaxaca (the city first, then the coast). I have just over two weeks to travel. Any last minute tips for the best food ever, must-see sites, day trips, records, nature, cinema, nightlife? I also don't have a place to stay lined up in Oaxaca...

OK, so I have almost no clues to offer here, but there was this top 40 female R&B track in the Ciara/Rihanna mold that came out in, I believe, late 2004. The vocal was kind of forgettable, but the song had a distinctive, massively distorted and filtered bass+guitar riff. Then the beat got a...

I'm looking for something tiny with resolution good enough for close-range ebay photos. Quality point-and-shoot photos would be nice, but realistically this is primarily for ebay use. I was working with a Nikon Coolpix 4600, and was pretty happy with that until I broke the display screen. Not...

In general, when discussing records, I resent the inevitable pressure to reduce albums to "good" or "bad" or whether I like(d) them or not. Sometimes it's pretty easy to do- and I probably do it as much as anyone- but other times it's damn near impossible. It's so much more meaningful to...

Can someone tell me the best way to protect myself from a chargeback via PayPal for an international order? I know I need to get tracking/delivery confirmation, which the the USPS does not offer, but who do I turn to? UPS? DHL? FedEx? Any of the above? How much is it gonna cost? Has...

I haven't jumped in yet. Please to share your positive and/or negative experiences.

So, I've been at my current job in HIV research for over five years, and am ready to move on, but feel like I have less career direction than I did five years ago. I've been weighing many options for my next step, but keep returning to at least a temporary (one to three months) detour in Latin...

What's up? 1I took a month off and now I'm back again with auctions since Labor Day. Admittedly,1I don't have any holy grails up right now,1but there's plenty of bread and butter stuff that has always been good for at least the list price in the past. Has anyone else noticed a drop in the past...

Anyone have an mp3 of "Free" by Jeffrey White?

I'm finding that some sellers will not ship to Russian Federation and Ukraine, and some charge a higher rate. What is the deal? I'm trying to give a safe rate quote for one record plus each additional record. Is it worth it?
