Our latest mix-tape just happened to coincide with the 7th Anniversary of the 911 Tragedy, so we decided to share it with our friends and fans during this day of remembrance...
It's a humorous dance mix, filled with our MEGA signature of film samples combined with a random compilation of multi-genres...
We intend absolutely no disrespect by the light tone of our homage, as we felt there would be enough sadness expressed through the media today.
Enjoy it and let us know what you think?

Outro-Put The Hammer Down-911 Telephone Call [Part 2]
So I was perusing MySpace and Moustache Mondays, L.A.'s "Glam Boy" spot, reminded me of this phenomenon while posting their club bulletin along with this flashback video:
"Your Momma's On Crack Rock"-The Dogs
Then, I found this:
An Amy Winehouse Rehab Parody-
There are a zillion Crack Head documentaries including this man's love for Cheetos and dancing:
This gentleman is my personal favorite:
The list of artists who have attacked the topic in their work is endless....
"Dopeman"-N.W.A.
Even Metal bands have touted the cultural effects of this drug:
"Crack Baby"-The Neighbors Hate Us
The seminal song that really brought the issue to light:
"Crack Killed Apple Jack"-General Kane
After my extensive search for humorous and or interesting material to post, I eventually encountered the harsh reality; the all too prevalent existence of drug addiction which has helped to eliminate multitudes of self esteem, which isn't funny at all:
George Evelyn aka DJ Ease is back with his Nightmares On Wax project and their new LP, Thought So... is again scheduled for release this week, after being promised to the masses in the month of August.
Though born in Leeds, UK he is currently holding court in Spain's notorious Ibiza, so this makes for an interesting texture on the latest recording, giving it an outer space vibe in sequence with Nightmares' usual Hipster-Hop sampled fusion.
The Big Band which consists of Robin Taylor-Firth on Keys, Chyna Brown, Ella May, Mozez [of Zero 7 fame???] & Ricky Ranking on Vocals, Chris Dawkins on Guitar, Drummer Ize and Hamlet Luton on Bass Guitar, aids our sultan of Downtempo in his quest for the groove.
