DJ Eli Escobar

Post by stype_ones »

So I know most of us know who DJ Eli is at this point. He popped up on the Stretch and Bob show back in the late 90's once or twice, and had his own show called Night Train on KCR on Tuesday nights where he played mostly originals, with a dash of hip hop. He also was part of the Cloud Kickers production team, who produced some joints for Cage and others.

The dude is a seriously ill DJ, if you did not know. I honestly challenge anyone to show me a DJ who mixes better than him. His mixing is flawless, and his knowledge of music is something real serious. Nowadays he spins mostly dance/electro type of music, and has been producing the same genre.

Anyways, he filled in on EVR for Mark Ronson a few times a few years back, and there were two nights where he really went in on the hip hop, one was an 80's set and one was a 90's set. He had them up on his blog, but those links died when zshare crashed back when. Anyways, I upped them in one zip for anyone who does not have them. Both sets are real dope man.

Here is the tracklist for the 90's set, that is actually in 2 parts.

CASUAL - THAT'S HOW IT IS (REMIX)
MOBB DEEP - SHOOK ONES part 1
MIC GERONIMO - SHIT'S REAL
DIAMOND, SADAT X, LORD FINESSE - YOU CAN'T FRONT
TRAGEDY/HAVOC - THE FUNK MODE
AZ - YOUR WORLD DON'T STOP
JAY-Z - IN MY LIFETIME
LL COOL J - NO AIRPLAY
SAUKRATES - FATHER TIME
LORD FINESSE - HIP TO THE GAME
NaS - UNDERSTANDING
NINE - LYIN' KING
BIG JAZ/JAY-Z/SAUCE MONEY - FOUNDATION
GANG STARR - DOUGH IN ADVANCE
NaS f/SADAT X - ONE LOVE (REMIX)
SCIENTIFIC - LAW TOWN
BIG NOYD f/PRODIGY - RECOGNIZE AND REALIZE
NaS/TRAGEDY/NOREAGA - THUG CALM DOWN
POP DA BROWN HORNET - BLACK ON BLACK CRIME
BUSHWACKAS - CAUGHT UP IN THE GAME
LA THE DARKMAN - I WANT IT ALL
AZ - RATHER UNIQUE
JEMINI THE GIFTED ONE - BROOKLYN KIDS

Nothing groundbreaking there, but the mixing is perfect and the tracklist is classic, so thats all you really need.


As for the 80's set, I do not have a track list off top, but from memory you can def expect to hear:

Steady B Bring the Beat Back
Caz- Get Down GMC
Kid N' Play Last Night
Salt N Peppa Get Up
Super Kids - Go Queensbridge
Slick Rick- Teenage Love Dub from the 12"
Some Ultra

I can't really remember but there are many joints on here.

Enjoy to anyone who don't have these sets, they are fresh.

Th 90's mix is so nice. Still get's a monthly spin from me. Nasty vaz was with him that night and it sounded like a old nighttrain show and they sounded like they was having mad fun. Does anyone have any nighttrain show's they can up as there impossible to come by. I was hoping eli would put them up on his blog but as yet nothing. Also i got a eli mix from way back which i haven't seen anywhere. I will up it very soon.
