So, obviously, the title is an homage to A Tribe Called Quest. That said, none of their tracks are in the mix. It’s more that the three concepts have been my day. I started the day attending a seminar on behavior change as part of another one of my hobbies, physical fitness. As such, I spent most of the rest of my day evaluating my approach to life in all aspects (relationships, career, hobbies, etc.). I ended the day putting together this mix. I had the usual fun of putting it together, but I think this was the first truly hip hop mix. So, rhymes 🙂
I let the tracks go a little longer this time around, so this is a little longer than my last couple of mixes. The transitions are decent, but not perfect. The last one (between Swang and Mask Off) flows pretty well, but I should have faded out the vocals of Swang. Oh well, with more practices comes better results.
This may be my last mix for a little while. Not because I am stopping; quite the opposite. I am taking an 8 week course on DJing with Traktor. So, while I’ll be working on getting better, the work product may not make it to the web.
Enjoy!
