Dome Cracker Remixes (Das EFX, J-Live, De La Soul)

Thursday, November 4th, 2010

Ever since I heard the “‘Microphone Master” remix back in ’95 I was hooked on DJ Spinna. The man’s catalog runs deep and yet his recognition never quite caught up. While “Dome Cracker” is comprised of DJ Spinna and Joc Maxx, who is dope in his own right, the lack of appreciation Spinna has received over the years is practically criminal. Best known for his Rawkus-era contributions such as Sir Menelik’s “7XL,” Shabaam Saadiq’s  “5 Star Generals” or L-Fudge’s “What If,” Spinna has done remixes for MC Eiht, Faith No More all the way to Michael Jackson.

So instead of me boring you with Beyond Real stories, let me just post a few superior remixes by team Dome Cracker as we pay a little respect to the man they call DJ Spinna.

De La Soul – Stakes Is High (DJ Spinna Remix)

U.S.C. Hip Hop NYC Real Deal Underground

Wednesday, December 9th, 2009

When i first saw this compilation in the store, i must admit that the only artists that were familiar to me were Screwball and Godfather Don. After spotting the production credits from DJ Spinna, The Beatnuts, Erick Sermon and Marley Marl, I thought that I could handle the cost and copped it. I never regretted this investment.

There is no track that i can say is a weak link. I’m still unfamiliar with two names on here, Slade Savage and Big Meal, so feel free to fill me in on their info if you know anything.

You will enjoy this one, we can guarantee you that.

Jigmastas – Beyond Real 1996 (DVD Video Rip)

Wednesday, August 5th, 2009


Since ’96, Brooklyn’s DJ Spinna and MC Kriminal have been turning out fresh underground hip hop of the highest caliber. The Jigmastas debuted with their first official 12″ “Beyond Real” on their self titled label “Beyond Real Recordings” in 1996. They had actually appeared on two compilations prior to their debut 12″ in ’94 & ’95 but they’re mostly known for their “Beyond Real” record; Bomb Hip Hop in 1994 & Blackmarket Unreleased in 1995, one track on each to be exact. But back to “Beyond Real” this is the joint that made them bigger on the underground scene. They also recorded a video for it which i’m bringing to you today. I got it a while back, can’t remember where.. It was titled as a dvdrip even though I don’t know what dvd it could have been from. The video quality is top notch though. I’ll give it 10 for an 90′s underground video quality. I think that it’s pretty rare to find. I also included the full 12″ rip of “Beyond Real” below the video download. Enjoy,

Bonus: Beyond Real / Dead Man’s Walk 12″ (1996)

About 2 months later a mysterious package arrived on my door step, and now I share with you:

J-Live – Always Has Been

Thursday, November 27th, 2008

In 1995, J-Live released his first 12″ “Longevity/Braggin’ Writes” on Raw Shack Productions. The b-side, Braggin’ Writes, was featured in many mixtapes, including New York Reality Check 101 which was mixed by DJ Premier. In 1996, he would release his second 12″ “Can I Get It?/Hush The Crowd“. The highlight of that 12″, was the Domecraker Remix of Braggin’ Writes that was produced by DJ Spinna. J-Live would also be featured in the Nov. 95 issue of The Source in the Unsigned Hype section. In 2003, J-Live released an EP called “Always Has Been” that contained all the tracks from his early 12″s + an unreleased track that didn’t make “The Best Part”.

DJ Spinna: Instrumental Review

Monday, November 17th, 2008

When you think of dope producers from the late 90s, DJ Spinna’s name should immediately come to mind, but chances are that it won’t, as his clientele consisted primarily of mediocre crews like the Jigmastas, Old World Disorder, NOTS Click, etc. Luckily, just about all of Spinna’s best tracks have been released in instumental format.

Here are some of my personal favorites. Drop me a line in the comments field and let me know which beat you’re feeling the most. I’d have to go with “Never Minded”. A good 2/3 of these beats are elite-level in my estimation, though. It’s really hard to choose.

Basement Khemists – I’m Doin’ Ya (Instrumental)

Basement Khemists – Joc Max Preface (Instrumental)

Basement Khemists – Vibrate (Instrumental)

Chopp Master Flopp – Peetie Swei (Instrumental)
