I’m a sucker for instrumentals! In my opinion, they’re underrated! It’s a great feeling listening to a great beat, discovering sounds that you may have missed listening to the vocal version!
This instrumental episode was recorded a long time ago but I always wanna recycle it because I never manage to record a new one! I’m sure you’ll recognize most of these beats, although I don’t think you’ll come up with the name for every beat! (unless you’re name is Soul Survivor!)
I dare you to write the name of all the beats you do recognize in the comments section for this particular post! I’ll post the correct track list during the coming weekend! I can reveal that the intro is over…ha! you really thought so?!
Beware that the mixing quality wasn’t the best at the time of this recording but I sincerely hope you enjoy some of these classics beats! Buckle up!
Well…here’s the playlist! Congratulations to DJ Grass! The ultimate champion! He only failed to deliver two names (tracks 2 & 27)!

J Dilla a.k.a. Jay Dee left us in februari 2006. 32 years old, Dilla left a legacy of amazing music both as a solo artist as in his productions. This tribute is a small taste of the music Jay Dee blessed us with and that we at 1200.nu feel you should experience.
Shoutout to Raw Fusion who invited Jay Dee in 2002(?) to perform in Mosebacke, Stockholm.
