SAMPLE NATION 030 // JOE BUHDHA

SAMPLE NATION 030 // JOE BUHDHA

Joe Buhdha’s work with Kyza, Klashnekoff and Rodney P in the early 2000s created sounds and styles that have continued to be imitated throughout the UK scene. Despite releasing very few songs, his work really has changed the UK sound and he’s created artist defining music that hasn’t been equaled since. I look forward to much more music from the man, but in the meantime here is two hours of his best work and a selection of new UK Hip-Hop for additional enjoyment

Broadcast 05/01/20

SAMPLE NATION 028 // PETE ROCK

One of the select few legendary producers that really changed the face of Hip-Hop with his style and sample selection. The chops and samples were so unique for the time and his style has seeped into so much modern Hip-Hop that’s followed. Considering how influential he is, it’s so weird to see how little music he’s actually put out… Quality over quantity..

This show is two hours of classic bangers, b-sides, remixes, album cuts and original samples

SAMPLE NATION 027 // Q-TIP PRODUCTION

One of the things that isn’t said enough is how great a producer Q-Tip is, obviously the Tribe stuff is incredible, but his work with Nas, Mobb Deep, and loads of others, all just nothing short of incredible (we’ll forget about the Anderson Paak stuff).. one of the first to bring jazz samples into the mainstream and really do something special with them, he always made the beat fit the artist.

This show is just a quick snapshot of some of his best work, mixed in with a load of new UK Hip-Hop from High Focus, Blah Records, Revorg Records and a really lovely new song by CLBRKS

SAMPLE NATION 026 // G-FUNK SYNTH

Two hours of Westcoast G-Funk with that Moog style synth and Hip-Hop inspired by that incredible sound.

Mostly West Coast, but there’s some East Coast and Southern Hip-Hop in there as well.

This episode was my favourite to put together and I’d actually been working on a mixtape using some of these songs for some time, so it was just nice to play some of these classics

Sample Nation 022 // Dark Circle

I was first introduced to Dark Circle’s music by a friend of mind Migz, about 15 years ago. I’ve been a huge ever since and finally got to see them live at the Foreign Beggars Asylum Speakers 10 year anniversary. You can hear the influence of their production in a lot of UK Hip-Hop and their music really still sounds fresh today. Enjoy this collection of B-sides, Features and album cuts.. There’s also a few new UK bits and some classic US Original Samples
