I’ve been a big fan of the Bmore sound (aka Baltimore Club, Doo Doo beats) ever since I was first exposed to it maybe 3, 4 years ago by the fairly influential series of LPs put out by a DJ duo named Hollertronix. Anyhow, I got a bit curious and apparently the BMore sound is mostly attributed and traced back as an offshoot of the Miami Bass sound and quite heavily influenced by Luke Skyywalker (and hence why some call the genre “Doo Doo”, i.e. after the track “Doo Doo Brown” by said 2 Live Crew producer).

The sound has been gaining a lot of traction across the country lately, so I’ve started fiddling around w/ the idea of doing a longer set of just B’more tracks. Was just practicing around last night and threw together a few tracks completely off the cuff just to see what I might come up with. Going to go ahead and post this up for now as a bit of a teaser/preview of a longer mix when I have more time to sift through all my B’more records more carefully.

Enjoy..

dj retrospekt - Late Night Break

Late Night BREAK…get it? Cause it’s a break set? har har har…Anyway, just wanted to try out some vinyl I recently got that I haven’t had a chance to use yet.

First and foremost, this is probably more of a set to listen to in the car or something. It starts off with some break remixes of some classic trance songs and has a really mellow feel to it. Near the end are just some remixes of couple other classic non-trance songs. No planning went into this session so the mood seems to kinda jump randomly with some mellower songs in the middle of heavier beat songs. Also, I jacked the volume up slightly too high near the beginning so theres one point where you can hear me crank it back down near 13 min mark. This was a 100% vinyl set. The beat drifted from me slightly on some of the mixes, but I think I managed to fix them pretty quickly. One major flaw is that I started mixing in Faithless slightly early at a bad transition point so if you listen closely, you can tell I started the mix over. Anyway, the tracks are break remixes of the following:

1. ATB - 9pm Til I Come) 2. Delerium - Silence vs. Paul van Dyke - For An Angel 3. Faithless - Insomnia 4. Three Drives - Greece 2000 5. Nalin & Kane - Beachball 6. Summer Junkies - I’m Gonna Luv U 7. Bucketheads - The Bomb 8. Armand van Helden - You Don’t Know Me 9. Daft Punk - Around The World

All in all, I thought the mixes could have been somewhat better but was a decent mix considering a couple first time runs on some of the songs.
