“If all I’m doing is looking for joints familiar to blogs and boutique record shops, I’m not really on my grizzly. I just can’t walk into the average record store hoping to find a copy of 24 Carat Black or Sabu Martinez because I’ll constantly be disappointed. But if I buy based on what they actually have, I might end up with a couple selections that most cats miss. Case in point: Jerry Butler’s “Power of Love”. Not a hard record. But a record you don’t really hear about. I wouldn’t have given Terri Rae’s “Raining, it’s raining” a second look until the hommie Kaewonder put me up on the cover. And while Labelle’s first album is known primarily for the soul classic “Moon Shadow”, everyone sleeps on the closing track, “People say they’re changing”. That new heat might lurking in the dollar bin, behind a crappy cover or in your own crate, or in your case, the link after the jump.”

Doin it up big Arcee! This looks hot!
Co-sign Kev and I’m only 1/3 into it.
good lookin’, arcee. i’m really enjoying this.
Word thats real shit y thoe I have found some of the best samples from shit i would never look at yo
http://www.wiseguysbeats.com/
WoW, this is some shit. This is deep D.I.T.C
good looking on the support!!!
we do this for yall.
I stopped by Kae’s earlier this week and he assured me volume 3 will be nothing short of a chock full of heatery. I don’t know even know what chock means, but I would guess ‘copious quantities’.
Just so erryone knows, I play the even joints(2,4 etc), Arcee holds down the odd ones(1,3, etc).
The real joke is that we both brought up the Nite-Liters , and the Notations
(not to mention the unplayed Dankworth shit-LOL).
Get ready for next month, y’all.
More heateration for ya’ll knuckleheads.
enjoy.
[...] you may already know, this monthly mix is a digging document that attests to both me and Arcee’s carnivorous appetite for all things vinyl and [...]
thanks much arcee and kae…look forward to these gems…i haven’t gone crate diggin in ages…
beautiful and perfect for a sunny afternoon here in Amsterdam. Also was listening to Fela last night and came across “Don’t Gag Me”, instantly switched over to Stripes! Thank Arcee, you’re keeping me ssauga canadian here in Holland. Keep the mixes coming.
The Nite Liters – “Funky Vamp” = Chi-Ali -”Chi-Ali vs. Vanilla Shake”
big daddy kane used superpeople on ‘dance with the devil’ off taste of chocolate. And you might recognize the horns from Riot’s “Just Beyond” as an interlude off Masta Ace’s Slaughtahouse LP after the mad wunz. I think Dre might have fucked with that nite-liters joint too, sounds kinda like lyrical gangbang off The Chronic.
And to daShank – Sauga and Amsterdam? wow, you’re from my 2 favourite places.
hollerate!!
Yeah Arcee!
MTL -> Ssauga (Meadowvale)…yeah, umember the old old days at Richards?…damn -> Toronto -> Amsterdam (2.5 years already). Somewhere in your archive you may find a mixtape I passed you a few years back at Reverb…finally founda copy of one side here in AMS and uplaoded it

Keep them mixes coming Kaeweezy and Arcee!
big ups for keeping that vinyl culture alive!!!
I might think that the Backyard Rangers must’ve used T.C.B. – Today’s Promises are Yeaterday’s Echoes for their song “Eatin’ Up Mcees”
paul, you sure do know a lot about the backyard rangers.
Have you to their album Head for the Hills! yet?
Hollerate!
