Gramophonedzie is amongst our favorite tech-house producers, often utilizing instrumental samples in his production giving each tune a true musical feel. He usually goes with a latin or jazz vibe, but he takes a different path in his most recent freemix, morphing the early 902s party starter Jump into a four on the floor tech monster.

I'm surprised I haven't heard a dubstep // glitch-hop remix of "Jump" yet. It had to be one of the top one-hit-wonders of the 902s and defined the style for a while. In The Bolivian Marching Affair's (TMBA) remix of "Jump," the electro gunplay hits right from the start. With outlandish breaks & glitches, this really shows where music is heading, for better or worse. However, to all those who don't understand it, try to remember that this style of music is more about feeling it than actually listening to it (which is true, to a [...]

For people who have never had a deep personal connection to his music, it's hard to explain why Biggie Smalls made such a huge impact on the world around the time Ready To Die dropped and why he is still regarded as Hip-Hop's favorite son. To look back now after a decade and a half of B.I.G imitation rappers, it's agreed that his style has been the most commonly bitten by emcees over the years. This is no doubt down to his ability to attack the flow in a way that speaks directly to the average [...]
