Bootlegs & B-Sides

30 minute Hip-Hop mix by Pipomixes, all vinyl:

I was originally working on a Dr. Dre mix but I got annoyed with how “clean” the mix was sounding so I abandoned the mix. Being annoyed with how clean the Dre mix was sounding and the general “cleaness” of musical sound these day, I went diggin’ through my record collection to find records that would constitute a more raw, authentic sound. The frustrating thing about going through a record collection is that there is very little music that you can’t find online through a few google searches. Even though the rarest of rare records can be found online these days, I decided to stick with records that I originally discovered only by buying white labels and looking on the b-side of better known 12” records. I’m sure you can find most (if not all of these joints online, but a lot of the music used on this mix is lost somewhere in the online abyss. I’ve got to say that it was a lot of fun going through and finding all of these joints in my collection because all of these records were bought on just a hunch (especially the bootlegs). I’ve also got to add that for every quality bootleg that made this mix there’s at least 3-4 wack bootlegs that I regret buying. I guess that’s the fun part of diggin’ for records.

Below, is the tracklist to the Bootleg & B-Sides mix (to the best of my recollection)
