My People

The full 2 hours of our special 1996 is online now on Edutainment's website.

-----

A couple of short mixes I did years ago around famous samples of
Dennis Coffey, Georges Benson and Les McCann. But beware : it contains french rap...

-----

Life's a bitch and then you die. And then people are going crazy about your old demos. Just ask Scientifik's sister.

-----

New songs by Lil Sci from Scienz Of Life Hit Me and by Scienz Of Life Hood Stock produced by Stones Throw intern, Flying Lotus.

-----

Another old song by Skillz Babiwon.

1996 recap

So it's that time of the year when every blogger publish his top 10 or top 50 of last year. We all know damn well that nobody cares about other peoples' taste, so we won't go there. Plus, I didn't buy ten good albums in 2006.

So here is my top 23 for the year 1996, mixed by Bachir and me. (sendspace link)

This is actually the first hour of our radio show from last week on HDR, but with the exception of Mother Superia, it's exactly what I was playing in 1996 on Radio Pomme.

Enjoy.
