Pah!

Mixmaster Mike is yer poor mans Cash Money, check out this clip from Cash Money's 1988 World DMC Mixing Championships finale. [Left Click and choose a save path]

It's just under 10MB, and has been re-encoded from an 82MB clip, which in full is about 8 mins, you can find the full file on soulseek - filename:
DMC 1988 World Finals - Cash Money.avi

Slight moan, bloody NT(hel)L's DNS servers are fucked, and I've not been able to access hardly any sites tonight, not even my own :eek:

Good job really I spose, as it's kept me from posting shit hehe

yeah

cash money was pretty money. the mighty hard rocker who's rocking your butt. but dj yoda tearing into duelling banjos is something else. I tried to edit his essntial mix to up just that clip but soundforge tells me i don't have enough hardrive space :( also my mate called krash slaughter who used to dj for jon carter in the monkey mafia days is awesome he had a sound clash with andy smith form portishead jesus christ. made me wanna retire.

Heard and seen a few clips of DJ Yoda, will get on the case tomorrow and see what I can download of his stuff..

Other great DJ's from back in the day:

Grandmaster Flash (who could forget him, the first to comit a live mix to vinyl)
Joe Cooley (Rodney O's DJ, who cut up Al-Nafayish by Hashim at lightening speed)
Jazzy Jeff (Fresh Prince's DJ, who was one of the masters at bringing out the 'transform' style)
Cutmaster Swift (UK DMC Champ, cheeky, but ultra cool with it)

You could argue that after 1990, it all got a bit too 'mad' with all the new turntable 'trix' and whatnot, but there have been some great stand outs since, Roc Raida & A-Trak (that young kid!) were superb.

I used to love Channel 4's intro's to the coverage they'd sometimes show..

"And now, legs, arms, hands and feet, mix and scratch it, with the DMC World Mixing Championships" hehe

Can't recall who it was, but one cheeky bugger, cut up Digital Undergrounds 'Humpty Dance' using his arse, with the line "and in a sixty-nine my humpty nose will tickle ya rear.." - that was class, you gotta give them credit for humour :)
