don't sleep. if anyone has any information on this release... lemme know! all i was able to pull from the downloading source was that it was a mail order exclusive.

גMystagogue Vol. II was only ever released on audiotape, around 1996 or ג97, packaged as a freebie with Slap skateboard magazine. In order to get it you had to buy the issue that was sold in skateboard shops (i.e., it wasnגt packaged with bookshop or other newsstand copies). This is pretty early Wu, and at the time they had a board company that sponsored Kevin Taylor, whoגs now with Zoo York. The mix itself is gritty Rza, with bits from Tical adn 36 Chambers mixed with jazz and funk.ג

גThis came in polybagged with a Slap skateboard mag, but you had to get it at a legit skateshop. They were freebies, but werenגt sent to bookstores or other newsstands. Super good, really gritty Rza. Funny, it sorta has that indie/MF Doom feel that people are talking about now, but this was like in 1996. ג

oh, internet.

I'd never heard of this until now. It's a great listen, made especially cool in light of the recent Wu-Tang Jazz mashups. I actually prefer this because of the cuts and overall mixtape vibe.

Props to wu-disciples for the re-up.

This is one of those really rare finds that Wu fans can thank the internet for. Right hereגs a Side A / Side B rip of the Mystagogue Vol. 2 cassette that came inside sealed issues of Slap skateboard magazine back in 1996. The cassette / Slap promo was only available at skate shops and was meant to act as a hype tool for the Wu skate team. The file hit about every blog a few years back but a big number of the links have gone dead. Here it is for everybody a 3rd time around. Itגs those raw RZA beats you know & love mixed with some jazzy instrumentals and lots of great scratching. The intro is classic too.

i remember those tapes, both are very dope, real dark and grimey with that classic Wu vibe to 'em. i wonder who mixed them though, i don't think RZA was ever much of a mix DJ - the cuts on "36 Chambers" were all by 4th Disciple and his DJ album "Wu-Tang Mix" was mixed by Big Kap. my guess is that either Allah Mathematics or 4th Disciple mixed these

Part 1 is dope, but Part 2 is fucking SERIOUS. I've listened to this like 3 times since Tuesday.
