Tupac, Biggie & Big L - Deadly Combination (125th Street Remix)




















Deep bass and congas set the mood over this head snapping track that Mysterio mastered from his musical mind.  The verses from the three deadly emcees fit well enough for Mysterio to build the sonic soundscape around their verses.  Intro provided by Gil Scott Heron.

Strictly Beats: Streets of New York - Large Professor (for Kool G Rap) - Street of New York (Instrumental Dub)




















Another steaming hot track served up by the Extra P back in the day.  And also another reason I wanted to get into hip hop production.  Fatback Band did it well but William Paul Mitchell did it a bit better.

Street of New York (Instrumental Dub)

Heltah Skeltah - Gunz N Onez (Digital Remix)




















Mysterio stepped up and revamped this Heltah Skeltah song featuring Method Man.  Doubled up drums and various instrumentation fill the landscape for the three emcees to spit some wild rhymes on.

Artifacts - Art of Fact (Analog Remix)















Mysterio returned to the lab with his original mix and stripped it down and then built it back up with some dusty old vinyl samples.

Strictly Beats: Demigodz - Under My Skin (Instrumental)
















The Demigodz production team delivers and on this track in particular they deliver the sounds to my ear giving me a warm feeling inside.  Funny thing - after I posted this I found the sample that these cats used which was from a song, of the same name, by Peggy Lee.

Under My Skin

Afu Ra - Defeat (Analog Remix)




















Mysterio took his digital remix, stripped it down, and revamped it with some analog sample cultivated from the milk crates.  What results is a smooth soundscape for Afu to flip his styles upon.

Gza - When The Fat Lady Sings (Analog Remix)
















Mysterio went back to the lab and dug up some dusty vinyl samples to give a new twist on this Gza classic.

How much can really be said about this beat produced by Tribe Called Quest except who actually did it.  Dope.

Strictly Beats: Cypress Hill - How I Could Just Kill A Man (Instrumental)
















Muggs came correct with this entire album but this is the first track I had ever heard from the west coast trio.  Back in they people even thought I was B-Real when I rolling around Baltimore.  Anyhow here is the beat to the famous song.

Strictly Beats: Mark Sparks (for Grand Puba) I Like It (I Wanna Be Where You Are) (LP Version Instrumental)




















Mark Sparks laced this track lovely for Grand Puba.  On the 12" Sadat X even showed up to drop some rhymes but this is strictly the beat and damn it is so good.

I Like It (Instrumental)
