Strictly Beats: Pete Rock & A Tribe Called Quest - We Got The Jazz



















Yes Pete Rock actually provided the sample and did the demo on this song.  Anyhow - I love this track and it always gives me a feeling of being in NY in the fall whenever I hear it.  Solid.

Strictly Beats: 45 King - Channel 9




















There are so many beats that the 45 King made that never get the recognition they deserve and this be one of them.  Before Madlib, before Dilla, before Marley Marl this guy was a fookin' beat machine.  900 Number is classic but come on.

Strictly Beats: Militia (Pete Rock Remix Instrumental)













All the "Militia" tracks are dope to me but this remix right here might take the proverbial cake!  Laid back and jazz tinged sounds that only the Chocolate Boy Wonder could deliver and still allow the emcees to flex with enough swagger on the mic.  Solid production from Pete Rock on this Militia remix.

Strictly Beats: Madlib - Fancy Clown




















Still one of my favorite tracks crafted by Madlib for the Madvillain album.  When I first heard the demo mix I could not get enough.  I actually liked Doom's flow on the original as well as the movie sample at the end.  Anyhow this is just the instrumental.

Mysterio took his original remix and went back to the lab with it.  He loves that version but decided to unplug the digital synths and insert some gritty analog samples to give another twist on this Nas classic!

Strictly Beats: DJ Premier - Memory Lane (Instrumental)




















Primo sampled Reuben Wilson's song "We're in Love" and took it to another level for this track off of Nas' debut album.  I am currently reading a book documenting "Illmatic"  and I highly recommend it for those who are fans of the classic album.  Anyhow this is strictly beats from DJ Premier.
