Electric
City
Everything, Everywhere, All the Time
For those that don't know, MC Mighty Flipside esq and DJ Skipmode
make up the crew Electric City. A staple in the Philadelphia hip-hop
scene, This is Electric City's first full-length studio offering
- and it gets the job done right. Here's what the good folks at
ropeadope.com had to say: "File Under: Philly underground hip-hop.
Electric City brings it back to the basics, moving forward all the
while. The duo consisting of DJ Skipmode's captivating turntablism
and beat-making, paired with the energetic lyricism of Mighty FlipSide
Esq., reintroduces the almost forgotten concept of MC/DJ/Listener
interaction. Their live show is hailed as legendary (at least here
in Philly) and the crew boasts the longest running monthly hip-hop
event in Philadelphia to back up that sentiment. With the release
of their first studio album, Everything, Everywhere, All the Time,
Electric City maintains the integrity of their live performance,
while paring intelligent lyricism and freestyle with innovative
production; proving they are not just another ordinary hip-hop act,
but true musicians." - word.

SKIPMODE MIXES
These are the goods! These are all promo-only joints intended to showcase
djing/party rocking abilties. But we all know they make for a great listen.
Put 'em in your car and you'll wonder how you got around without them for
this long.
Note: mix downloads are divided into segments rather than individual
tracks - typically 3-4 segments. This helps to minimize annoying gaps between
adjoining tracks, and will make your MP3 listen more enjoyable. So don't
be mislead by the low track count when downloading - These 3-4 mp3 files
are indeed the full length cd.
Shameless
Promotion 2
It Ain't Nothin' But A Party Y'all!
Despite the title, this mix actually has little musical similarity
to the original Shameless Promotion. This one's a lot more upbeat-80's
pop/hip-hop-dance influenced, rather than the classic hip hop/ old
school funk type vibe of the first one. What they do share however
is a clever, skillful, genre-jump type mix that keeps the party
going strong, and makes for a thouroughly entertaining 80 minute
joyride. Hits from the likes of EPMD, Pointer Sisters, Daft Punk,
Big Daddy Kane, Human League, Rod Lee, Rod Stewart, Biggie Smalls,
Devo, Cool C, Gantman, Outkast, Kid N Play, Metro Area, and yours
truly are sure to get you in touch with your inner bug-out. While
offerings from Chaka Khan, LL Cool J, Hall & Oates, Fatback, Tuff
Crew, Queen, Zapp, Lisa Lisa, and Bohannon will have Turnpike tollbooth
collectors bobbing their heads. Also recommended for use in the
gym and elite social gatherings. Mixes well with alcohol. Sprinkle
liberally on french fries, meats, and poultry. 35 tracks in all.

Future
Shock 086
"Oh I think you're gonna need all that bass!"
Oft imitated, never duplicated - This 2005 mix remains a personal favorite. It starts off with some
raw, old school 808 rap circa 1985-1988, moves into Miami Bass/
80's electro territory, then takes a final stop in Detroit for some
ghettotech/ Juke/ booty madness. There's a handful of classics on
here to keep the casual listener in step, enough overlooked / unexpected
/ long forgotten joints to keep old school heads excited, dirty-filthy
lyrics that school kids love, and loads of bass and ass shake-ability
throughout. Recommended for fans of Mantronix, Egyptian Lover, NWA,
2 Live Crew, Juan Atkins, DJ Assault, Kraftwerk, Tuff Crew, Byron
Davis, Blowfly, Paul McCartney, Godfather, Stetsasonic, Rodney-O
& Joe Cooley, Eddy Grant, Detroit Grand Pubahs, Cat Stevens, Krown
Rulers, DJ Slugo and more. **Now with more cowbell!**80 min/ 43 tracks in all.
Shameless
Promotion 1
Here's an oldie but goodie. Flashback Feb. 2003 - The "turntablist"
movement had grown stale, the mash-up / genre-cross thing hadn't
caught on to audiences yet, and I had just gotten the promos for
50 Cent's "In The Club" . Enter "Shameless Promotion" here. A month
later, after that years WMC in Miami, I didn't think I'd ever want
to hear that song again, but I'm listening to it right now and it's
fittin' just fine on this disc - right between Scarface and Slum
Village. Lots of classic material on here from the likes of GangStarr,
Pharcyde, Jazzy Jeff/Fresh Prince, BDP, Sly & Robbie, Slick Rick,
James Brown, Ghostface, Malcolm McLaren, Positive K, Biggie, Dennis
Coffee, Jay-Z, Blackbyrds, Tenor Saw, De La Soul and more. A lot
of the songs on here have become staples in dj sets the world over
by now, but this mix still holds up from start to finish, and continues
to be a fan favorite. There's something for the ladies, something
for the heads, and overall good vibes throughout. Blame it on the
flow Joe. Certified. 79 min. / 35 tracks total.
Run
DMC vs. Beastie Boys
DJ's Skipmode and Panek (illvibe collective) - A tribute to some of
our heroes. There should be no surprises here - yet alas there are. You've heard most of the songs before, but never quite like this. 40+ tracks from two
of the most influential groups in hip hop history - all in one 80
minute non-stop mix. If you're a fan of either group, you owe it
to yourself to be rocking this one.
