Na Aeroplane heeft nu ook het label van de vorige week overleden DJ Mehdi een muzikale reactie gegeven. Zowel Ed Banger Records zelf als labelgenoot en vriend DJ Feadz, hebben beide een mix online gezet. De nog niet eerder uitgebrachte mix uit 2006 van Mehdi zelf - welke op haar beurt weer een tribute is voor de overleden J. Dilla - en DJ Feadz zijn eigen tribute voor Mehdi. Van beiden een erg mooi gebaar, beluister beide mixjes hieronder.
Back in 2006, Dj Mehdi's hommage to Dilla we did something like 200 promo CDs fro friends. I think it's time for this music to be shared and enjoyed by all of us. I still can't believe what's happening, so I press play and I listen to my best friend's music. - Busy P from Ed Banger Records.
"LOUKOUMS" Based on the DONUTS album concept, these are demos, out-takes and unreleased gems from various records I worked on before and during the making of LUCKY BOY, my next album. Stuff comes from MEGALOPOLIS, 113 DEGRES and SHEITAN soundtrack mainly, but some is older too. Hope you enjoy these rough mixes and un-polished sounds, as I pay hommage to "one of the greatest minds to ever make beats": Mr James Yancey, better known as JAY DEE, also know as DILLA. Non-produced and un-mixed by Dj Mehdi, NSI. Jay Dee rest in peace
