My favourite was Cut Chemists' opening set. He recreated the old school
track that Grand Master Flash did for that K-Tel/Quality breakdance album
using the original breaks and mixing and scratching exactly the way Grand
Master did for that classic track on 4 turntables. His mix of original 7"
breaks
put our digging crew to shame :-) Mad props to the artists and also to
Carlos Mondesir and Hot Stepper Productions for bringing the show to T.O.
shanti,
