Always in awe of the stuff Dilla did, his lifting of a Stereolab sample for Busta Rhymes is genius, while some originals by the Los Angeles Negros, The Battered Ornaments, The Coasters, The JB's, and Gary Wright have been sampled before, heavily and well, not so heavily. There is some Golden Age Hip Hop with Pete Rock and CL Smooth featuring Grand Puba (and using the Coasters sample) while Diamond and KRS-One meet and Da Bush Babees swing it, newer Hip Hop straight from Shaolin and Ghostface feat. Raekwon and Capadonna, some funky Reggae with Boris Gardiner, rockin' steady with Delroy Wilson, an excellent re-interpretation of Eddie Harris by DJ Nu-Mark, and some Rock with the Who. I mean if you can't get down with "Emminence Front" think about it again. Always switching it up for you on these Ace mixes, it was done all live, one take, and is a good representation of what you're gonna hear if you come out on Fridays at the Ace Hotel in NYC. Enjoy!
