You Are The One (B.Cause ANTI Club mix) by DJ B.Cause

Here's a a fun summertime edit, placing Tinashe's "2 on" over the super classic Taana Gardner groove, with added drums and filter sweeps, etc.  Also to report, got 2 gigs in SF this weekend "Soul Clap" tonight at Mercer, and the Tape Haters release party tomorrow night, "No Fingerprints" at Showdown.  Hope to see some you out and about in the streetss. Enjoy the weekend!

Enjoy a mix of obscure heat and classic grooves, perfect for the whip or on the go. Warning: EXPLICIT Language! CDs/Cassettes available soon... At Last!

Hey guys, here's a brand new edit!

Hey all, I'm not dead just been hiding under a rock!  Here's a new Bay Area rap remix: Iamsu! & bobby brackins - golden state (b.cause s-six version) by djbcause

Classic hype a$$ cut from local outfit Misfitz Ov Stylz, off of their obscure '95 4 song EP on Size 12 Management. Big ups to DJ Lexx, one of the first DJ's to show me love in the bay when I was just starting to play records out. Misfitz Ov Stylz - Where Fuck U At?

Bunch of new good stuff floating through by some of my talented friends and folks, thought I'd share a few tunes. First off, grab that Pendletons joint on 45 right now - there's only 200 and it's fresh! Groove Merchant has them, as does Turntablelab . Next mention is the homies Vin Sol And Charles McCloud with a nice bassey minimal house rework of a Sade classic. Free download - sweet! Couldn't Love You More - Vin Sol & Charles McCloud by Vin Sol Vin Roc and Mike Baker's new song is pretty damn fly. Go to Vin's site for more infoz, and to DL and/or buy. This an old one, but I really meant to post it up here long ago so why not now. Lunice beats, Jealous Guys raps. Still dope. Big ups and courtesy of Southern Hospitality . Bonus beats: peep the dude DJ Vajra's tight Fugees blend with the "all i want is you" beat: Ready Or Not (DJ Vajra Remix) by DJ Vajra

Here's one I've been holding for a minute, as usual I added a few chords with the Juno 106 for added effect. Kinsmoke feat federation & rick rock - do the on one (b.cause synth edit) by djbcause

Here's a new take on the old D-Lo joint, featuring Beeda Weeda, E-40 and The Jacka. Super Disco Hyphy still in the buildin'. D-lo feat e-40 beeda weeda & jacka - no hoe (b.cause invitation edit) by djbcause

We are playing rap records all night tonight at Showdown in SF. Now if only I had a hand-truck. And here's a new version of the dude Z-Man's "Cupcakin'" - one of my first MPC-based remixes, hopefully many more to come. Z-man - cupcakin (b.cause jff remix) by djbcause

Check out this excellent new rap joint from the local talents of Ayinde and Biz y Casa. Grab the whole One Night Stand mixtape here and peep out their blog for more.

I Got 5 On It (D.O.A. break)

Laid the A.kon vocals over a re-arranged Jacka instrumental, seems to work out pretty well... Locked Up (all over me fix)

The homie Eddie K has a new joint out - "Future Spit, which is available on itunes now. Support Ed's dedicated grind and go copp it! Here's a track from the album, featuring Mac Dre and Spank Pops. The Game So Easy And for a bonus beat here's another old b.cause mixtape blend featuring Eddie aka 88 and S.F. legend DJ Quest, who btw is one of the illest on the cut ever.

Get that new Z-Man album, they're giving his new EP away over here . Beats by Boac & Dnae Beats - cuts by og Eddie Def! Also featuring Bored Stiff and Trunk Drank. There's a release party coming to the Elbo Room in April - if you have never seen Z live on stage you need to check dude out for real.

Big up to the Bay Area's own Sweetbreads Creative Collective - really love what they have been doing. This new Da Vinci album is dope - drops in 2 weeks! Keep an eye on these cats... DaVinci - Montage Ep. 2 (Guys Wanna) from Sweetbreads Creative Collective on Vimeo . Grab this! Guys Wanna (Prod. Al Jieh) by SWTBRDS

New blend feat the Jacka acapella over the Done Deal slap - I have a weakness for that guitar organ combo. Glamorous Lifestyle (the hard way edit)

Here are 3 southern rap remixes I've made from the past few years that I still dig. These tracks all share the same quality in that I basically took a straight soul or funk 45 & chopped it generously to work around the song structure. They took a lot of elbow grease but it was worth the effort. Dolla (RIP) - Who The F-ck Is That (ya mama know remix) Baby Huey - P*p Lock And Drop It (joey remix) B*by Boy Da Prince - The Way I Live (you got what I need rework)

Fresh off the block, sorry for the recent slackage! Wake It Up (Super Rappin' Mix)
