Ghostface - Run (Digital Remix)
Mysterio incorporated the movie "Heat" to match up with the classic verses from Ghost's song and layered multiple instruments over a crunchy drum track to compliment the intensity.

Strictly Beats: CMW - Growin' Up In The Hood (Funky Piano Remix) (Instrumental)
Sampling Joe Simon's "Theme for Cleopatra Jones" set the mood for this excellent song by CMW but what really gets me on this funky piano remix is the piano. Incredible stuff just like the Three Times Dope "Funky Dividends" (Extended Piano Mix).

Strictly Beats: DJ Premier - Now You're Mine (Instrumental)
Recently I was listening to this song and I could not help but rewind, replay, rewind and replay again and again. So simple yet so intoxicating. Another testament to Primo's credo that less is always more.

Strictly Beats: People Under The Stairs - San Francisco Knights
The instrumental for the song by P.U.T.S. delivers a nostalgia vibe to a city I have visited but never lived in but wish I had. The original source material has been covered numerous times so the fact they used the sample doesn't bother me at all because they deliver the concept extremely well with their lyrics and effective and complimentary drum kit.

Strictly Beats: Diamond D - A Day In The Life
This track produced Diamond, before he dropped the "D", is one of my favorites. His other solo albums were crap in comparison to his debut sample filled masterpiece. This is one instrumental cut I played over and over on the 12" record it was released on.
