I was blessed with a rip of a tape that Dilla made around 95/96. Basically what he’d play in his car while riding around. A bunch of the early remixes, alternate takes of Slum Village tracks, demo versions, beats, and sketches/loops/ideas with no added drums.

Finding the samples to weird shit like that was amazing. Wanted to put them on the mix for anybody else who has the same tape, and also to pique the interest of listeners who can’t place where the sample was used.

The rabbit hole is quite deep, as I came to find out.
