Ha! I must be clairvoyant or something. I was predicting to my spouse that there would be beats on a Rob show. Who knew?! q;^)

You know you get nothing but the finest beats when DJ RB is in the house! And speaking of beats, check these crazy Chinese/Vietnamese beats from Onra. This stuff is amazing!

Also, I saw both Guts and Onra referred to, on the internet, as "French beatmakers", so there's that. Nice job title.

oh dear, not peebee again
The Upsetter "Scratch" changed EVERYTING! Waaaaay toooo cool. Got to see him live a decade and a half or so ago now, in Minneapolis of all places. Funky elf on stage, at age whatever. Place was rather ... umm ... "ghanja enriched". ;^)

And he's still going strong at 83! I always get a kick out of his stuff, from any period. But I have a very special soft spot for his early stuff, so this new compilation of singles from the 60s is right up my alley!

Yeah, no shit, when i saw him, he was "just a young kid with a dream" at maybe 70 or so.

It pleases me to no end when old guys do cool stuff. It fills me with hope!
