oh yeah...i remember seeing this one but i passed on it since it didn't have the sound i was lookin for.....but thanks again batson. appreciate it. PM'-ing you now. i even tried to make my own DIY acapella of Ghetto Red Hot (using a rip of the CD single), but i'm not very good at creating DIY pellas since i don't really know what i'm doing. it's too bad we don't know anybody who's good at making DIY's. Ghetto Red Hot would be a really good one to use in a blend

A few more popular, well known ones:

Cutty Ranks -Kill Dem (spartan mix) - Again, I had a much better rip of this that seems to have gone missing.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9OLD6FWK

Cutty Ranks- A Who Seh Me Dun

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RJIS9702

Cutty Ranks- A Who Seh- Dynamik Duo mix

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SL6YU1KQ

I prefer the original, but can anybody please tell me the beat used for the Dynamik Duo mix at around 2.17 min in? It reminds me of an Egyptian Lover track or something.

yo send me the cd rip i can make DIY just fine. But not all of them work. Especially older stuff recorded to tape. Dolly My Baby didn't work. But I can definitely try to make it. I don't think i've seen the cd. Do you have the Super Cat and Heavy D - Dem No Worry We cd single? I wanted to try and make that but can never find it. I also want the remix instr in cd form. I've been checking ebay but never see it.

sorry batson i got it mixed up....i was using a 320 rip of the Ghetto Red Hot vinyl. the Cd single i have is for Dolly My Baby

i've never seen the cd single for Dem No Worry We...never even knew it existed

what method do u use to make your DIY's? inverting the waveform, mid-side, of removing audio frequencies?

it sounds like i've heard that exact beat before, but can't think of where they took it from

Posted: **Thu Oct 27, 2011 9:47 pm**

Yep, I know I've heard it, but can't place it.

I don't know exactly where that is from but it's the hoochie coochie dance of the snake charmers dance. It's been around forever.

Posted: **Fri Oct 28, 2011 3:23 am**

Thanks bbatson, I know the tune / melody's been around for a long time, but I'm pretty sure I've heard it used on a hiphop / electro beat. Just need to figure it out.

I knew Egyptian Lover used it, couldn't remember exactly but Egyptian Lover used it on 'Egypt, Egypt'. The 12" has different drums etc, I'm wondering who else used that tune, or whether it was replayed.

Step One reminded me today of the Lady Saw remix of "No Long Talking" (uses the beats from Biggie/Hypnotize and Lost Boyz/Get Up RMX)

here's a rip of the vinyl promo

Tracklist:
1) Remix
2) Acapella

Apache Indian - Make Way For The Indian (1995)

Posted: **Sat Nov 05, 2011 2:00 am**

Apache Indian was garbage, sorry dude.

Mark 563 wrote:Apache Indian was garbage, sorry dude.

i agree....his accent sounded really forced and bad.
his track 'Make Way for The Indian' with Tim Dog had a good beat and Tim was dope, but Apache ruined the song for me. he would've been better as a bhangra-hiphop artist

other reggae-hiphop artists with accents that bothered me due to their 'forcedness' were Ruffa, Blak Panta, Whitey Don, Kulcha Don, Skeeta Ranx, sometimes Don Jagwar etc

oddly enough i give Snow a pass, probably because his style was more singing instead of toasting, and it wasn't as noticeable.

Apache Indian was just mad corny - reggae / pop rap, done badly.

yeah, he got a lot of press when he came out off the back of the 'OMG! An Asian!' factor, plus he had that song 'Arranged Marriage' which while also shit was a bit of a taboo subject at the time.

Posted: **Sat Nov 05, 2011 9:03 am**

I agree,the guy is whack,but still,he is in the frame for this thread.Anyway I only like his song with Tim,the boom bap I love.

Am I wrong in thinking Snow was actually of Jamaican origin? Didn't MC Shan have something to do with him?

That article was quite funny, if only for the Miami Vice pilot clip at number 1, which I had never seen. It's the only clip I played, but it was great!

I always thought some of the villains in Marked For Death had some dodgy dialogue and accents, although probably not as bad as some on that list.

Posted: **Sat Nov 05, 2011 2:07 pm**

Snow was Canadian, think Shan produced or managed him. He probably made more off 'Informer' than he did off his own music

Posted: **Sat Nov 05, 2011 2:20 pm**

that list.

Snow is from Canada (irish parents). MC Shan did have a connection to him...here's a note from wikipedia:

In 1988, Jamaican-born DJ Marvin Prince witnessed O'Brien deejaying at a party and quickly, the two became friends. For the next few years, they practiced in Prince's basement with Snow providing vocals and Prince scratching the turntables. While on a trip to New York City, Prince mentioned Snow to rap star M.C. Shan. Shan then invited Snow to New York and introduced him to music producers, David Eng and Steve Salem. Snow eventually signed a contract to record on their Motorjam/Elektra record label and in 1993 released his debut album 12 Inches of Snow

Step One is right....he did make more money off of Informer than off his whole catalog. that song was the #1 selling reggae single of all time. the publishing money alone was insane.

Posted: **Sat Nov 05, 2011 2:26 pm**

Yeah, I think Shan had blown all his money on drugs and Informer was a nice little earner for him. I could've sworn I saw people mention Snow being from Jamaica, shows how much bullshit there is out there. I want to hear Shan's Informer verse, now.

great post aleph...never heard that one before.

i agree, it's not great but it's got a certain appeal to it
i think i listened to it like 4 times straight haha

Haha, true. Sounds like the track was 10 minutes work, tops but that's why it somehow works (probably also why it got only one spin on an obscure 1am radio show)
