J Dilla - '93 til

A rare collection of Jay Dee beats from as early as 1995. You'll notice that some of these ended up on "The 1997 Batch". Support jdillafoundation.org & Vintage Vibez Music Group
There is an interview with Illa J by Chuck Chilla where Illa J spoke on the Yancey Boys album and that the beats on it came from '95-'98, this may be that batch in some form. He also said the CD had 38 tracks and that's how many beats are on this if you don't count the alternate tape transfers. Zero EQ or noise reduction was done, all I did was remove gaps and make the cover art. Happy Dilla month!

The beat @ 7:36 is actually my beat 😅 I made this for a rap duo who was part of a crew I was in along w/ Jay Dee which was formed by Q-Tip… the group was Punchline & Wordsworth

[@austinsauer250]

That’s dope ! I’m sure you got some incredible stories. Did some research on your career and found some powerful music, wanted to say that thanks for your impact 🙏🏻

[@eighty_ocho]

Ahhh thanks homie. Yeah… my story of how ‘Dilla & I met for sure is a funny one. I want to say we met back ‘95 if I’m not mistaken. Definitely before his production w/ Mad Skillz.

And @ 38:35 is my beat as well which is crazy because I literally haven’t heard this beat since the mid- ‘90s when I made it. I want to say this was probably ‘96 or ‘97.

[@onceitisover]

Hahah, that's crazy!

[@sovereigncosmicwildman]

This happens often, people mistaking the production of a producer for another, this happens a lot with Madlib mixtapes, they throw in Kankick beats into the mix by mistake, the 90's versions of Kankick and Madlib do sound similar at times using similar snares, but Kankick does have his own original sound

[@aldali724]

Yo nice!!!!

[@eighty_ocho]

@@sovereigncosmicwildman yeah, there’s a song I produced for Consequence called “Armani Frames” (incorrectly title “The Riot” if you ever find it) which featured Busta Rhymes on the hook… everyone & they’re mama thinks JayDee did it. 😅

this is better then most lo fi mixes. this is true studying and chillin music

[@bigmacattack7747]

Fr most lo fi mixes phoning it in nowadays

[@grilledsteeze]

I make LoFi beats myself but comparing them to Dilla is like comparing modern rock bands to Zeppelin or the Beatles. The greats were all on another level musically. Jay Dee is the master.

[@McSquirts]

@@bigmacattack7747 Dilla is the guy who invented these types of beats. Lo-fi is one way or another directly derived from Jay Dee or Nujabes. idk when the term lo-fi was termed (I first heard the term used loosely in 2015) but Jay dee never called it lo-fi.

[@nathanieltyghe4526]

​@@McSquirtsJ Dilla never made lo-fi beats he was hi-fi a lot of the tapes are just bad quailty

[@samuraishampoo3649]

​@@nathanieltyghe4526 Yes the tape is not the best quality but he did love cassette hiss/vinyl crackle and would program it on beats, Questlove talks about it in this interview kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3Tbh615mpeBZ7s , an example of how he would deliberately lower the quality of his beats but makes it sound great. And he definitely was a pioneer (among many things) of making beat tapes full of laidback slower tempo beats that sound lo-fi and hi-fi at the same time.

[@tuckalow]

love the non-slowed version of everytime

@@Padybu i figured. Stereolab style! man you killed it.

You can tell it's before he clocked his infamous snare placement. So crazy to hear how sick he was before he was quite himself. Incredible selector!

[@samyccino333]

14:15 that funky wrapped bass, + that cloudy beat with floating snare drums! So hypnotic and hiphopistic at will and faithful to the art cover....sing u JDEALA

One of my favourites- Steve swallow - ice cream is the sample

[@bluemonkjd]

I can't believe the "Feels Like Love" beat was this old. A genius from the get.

Genuinely could be the greatest of all time. Lucky that we are in is timeline 🙏

[@drippdaddy7431]

Born in 93. Gotta say. 90s might be the greatest of all art and culture.

[@Kevinschart]

you spent most of the 90s in diapers drinking from a sippy cup. you are a child of the 2000s

[@surfwakeskatebrd]

In 2-3 decades when the "unreleased beat-USBs" surface under the lenses of retro-spect and nostalgia folks will probably be reckoning the same about now. "2020s had it all comin' in from every direction of the timeline matrices"

[@thomasminarchickjr.7355]

I was there for it. Hip-hop from the late 80’s to the early 90’s was the shit. After that, it was all about the underground stuff like Del the Funky Homosapien, Hieroglyphics, Spul of Mischief, into the late 90’s stuff with Mos Def and others. The 70@: was the peak of music, movies and culture. The 90’s was the last good decade. The internet fucked all of that up

In 94 we met at the mall every Saturday we were in a crew called Lazy Wonz Owt and we listened to Dilla's beats at Montgomery Wards in the hifi section 😂😂😂. We would hit the food section of the mall, write and record later that night. OFCOURSE AFTER HITTING THE HIO HOP SHOP AT 4 PM TO BATTLE. DETROIT HIP HOP FAIRLANE MALL AND 7 Mile... My heart forever! RIP DILLA RIP BAATIN AND MOST OF ALL OUR DETROIT MAYOR OF HIP HOP BIG PROOF! I LOVE YALL! SALUTE, MALAKI THE MOST HI!
