Original Breaks & Samples Vinyl 4 Items

Limited to 200 copies, HHV Exclusive, red vinyl.
Heroes Of Limbo rework two hip-hop staples with stunning afrobeat arrangements. Eric B. & Rakim's 'Don't Sweat The Technique' and Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth's 'They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y.)' are stripped to their instrumental essence with polyrhythmic drums and percussions, powered up by a massive big band brass section and going bonkers altogether. A sure shot double-sided winner for all DJs that want to leave their crowd guessing whether they're taken to the streets of New York or to the Shrine in Lagos, Nigeria.

The DRUM LIBRARY series, which began back in 2001, has prided itself on compiling the hardest, crunchiest and most rarefied drums from every source imaginable. We've held to this standard for over 15 years; providing professional producers & bedroom beat makers alike with the largest collection of quality drums available today. In short, the DRUM LIBRARY series has become an industry standard. The ever-expanding, go-to kit for beat makers around the world.

Now, with the conclusion of the series at Volume 15, you hold in your hands, what will be the last vinyl incarnation of the DRUM LIBRARY series.

These drums actually constitute what would have originally been Volume 4 and 5 before the masters were initially thought to have been lost in a flood that gutted the studio where, up until then, the DRUM LIBRARY series were made. Fortuitously perhaps, these last two "orphaned" volumes were discovered safe & sound in a storage unit just as Vol.15 was wrapping up. We've complied them both here in one special edition volume.

Compiled by legendary producer Arthur Baker, "Breakers Revenge" is a near-definitive collection of original Funk, Soul, Latin, Disco and Electro classic tracks from 1970-1984.These tracks, a combination of classics and obscurities, have all since become legendary to Breakdancers everywhere. First played at South Bronx block parties, community halls and park jams in the 1970s and 80s, spun endlessly by the first three major hip-hop DJs - Kool Herc, Grandmaster Flash and Afrika Bambaataa - and found in the record crates of any DJ of note ever since.Seminal funk and soul tracks such as Dennis Coffey"s "Scorpio", The Jimmy Castor Bunch"s "It"s Just Begun", James Brown"s "Get on the Good Foot", The Mohawks" "Champ" sit side-by-side here with the ground-breaking, classic electro of Afrika Bambaataa"s "Planet Rock", and Arthur Baker"s own definitive "Breaker"s Revenge".

15 super rare and obscure library, soundtrack, jazz and soul tracks plundered by producers such as Alchemist, Daringer, Statik Selektah and Camouflage Monk for Westside Gunn's seminal "Fly God" album, giving crate diggers everywhere an insight to that gritty Griselda sound.
