If you’re into turntablism/crate digging…?
Please recommend me some records that you feel are a good combination of both...or great examples of either.
Also, If you go to gigs...What do you think of Producer live performances?
Morbid - LMFAO. Co-sign. The worst is when one of them tries to over vibe to his own beat and looks drunk. I'm seeing Wax Tailor and DJ Vadim with live bands next week, I'll let you know how it turns out..
I’m into crate digging..
Turntablism albums
- Man or Myth - Dj Faust
- Anti-Theft Device - Mix Master Mike
- Fuga - Ricci Rucker
- Never is Now - Dj Swamp
- Wave Twisters, Episode 7 Million: Sonic Wars Within the Protons - Dj Qbert
I would check this album out, it was released on Stones Throw.

Forge Your Own Chains: Heavy Psychedelic Ballads and Dirges 1968-1974
You’re bigger than me in both already, but I just stopped by to say Producer live performances are great, but the most awkward thing on earth is a Production battle. >_< Youtube a few, it’s just some random producers sitting there, giving the same sample, randomly nodding their heads hoping something good can come out. I swear it’s the most awkward thing on earth.
Cap, you are aware that you have the greatest knowledge when it comes to this field….right
So I suggest you take a break from this crap and view this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYoUBw0pap4
Doesnt Paul Allen’s commentating just send chills down ur spine, now this is better than a turntable
I’m into both, I am a Ragga/DnB dj, that tends to put in some hip hop, funk, and turntablism into my sets. I tend to stick to funk/motown records for the breaks, and soundtracks for samples. I’ll throw out some of my all time finds that I like using a lot overall. The Godfather ost, 2001 ost, London Symphony Orchestra preforming The Who’s Tommie, Also, for the accapellas, some favs would be Shook Ones P.II, Cage n Tame One - Got Wet, Mos Def - Work It Out. As I said, those are just a few prized catches, all original presses, and ones that I use the most.
I enjoy Producer live performances, Check out Starkey if you wanna see a good producer.
[ignore me. i just want to star and answer this so that i can come back and get some dope turntablism recommendations]
