DJ MK VOL 9 - 1995
DJ MK VOL 9 CAME OUT IN OCT-1995, AND IT IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE MIXTAPES I VE EVER DONE.
AT THAT TIME I WAS TEENAGER, WORKING IN A RECORD SHOP CALLED HANDSPUN RECORDS IN LONDONS WEST END AND WAS ON MY MIXTAPE GRIND HARD!!!!
THAT SHOP WAS LEGENDARY AND ANYONE WHO WAS ANYONE IN HIP HOP PASSED THRU THEIR..
COULDN"T FIND THE ORIGINAL COVER SO SECOND BEST IS A PHOTO OF ME IN THE SHOP HOLDING UP A COPY OF THE TAPE....
THIS TAPE SPREAD LIKE WILDFIRE AND IF YOU WERE INTO HIP HOP AND LIVED IN LONDON THEN YOU HAD A COPY OF THIS TAPE...
I RECORDED THIS TAPE ONTO A SONY METAL MASTER, AND DONE THE WHOLLE THING LIVE IN 2 BITS....THE INTRO IS CRAZY BASS HEAVY FOR THE 1ST 30 SECS BUT THE REST OF IT SOUNDS PERFECT.....
I WAS GETTING CRAZY PROMOS AT THE TIME AND EVERY TRACK YOU HEAR ON THIS TAPE WASNT EVEN OUT...
SHOUT OUT TO EVERYONE WHO WAS AROUND IN THOSE DAYS...PETE, DJ KUKU, DODGEY REG, RICKY KNUCKLES, WESTWOOD, 279, MR LAWSON, SKAM1, DJ GO, KENFORD AND BROWNSVILLE AND MANCHESTERS OWN DJ SEMTEX.... IF YOU VE NEVER HEARD THIS TAPE BEFORE DOWNLOAD IT NOW AND SEE WHAT ALL THE FUSS WAS ABOUT... DOWNLOAD

classic stuff. I lost count of how many times i repaired this tape after it chewed up!
I've got Volume 11 on MP3 if you want it.
Lovely stuff. Remember buying this from you. Great Memories.
Classic mix- Handspun records, drinks in the George pub after closing - Those were the days.
Good to see you are still maintaining MK -
