Can I Kick It / Reg Ulate: The Instrumentals

The Doom label has been digging in the archives again to turn out some killer instrumental hip-hop beats on a land, limited 7". These are designed for maximum DJ deployment and will prove irresistible to dancers. First up is a classic blend of golden-era boom bap that's dusty and drenched in soul, with classic samples adding that hooky charm. On the flip is another one from some more icons of the game that is deeper, slower, more sensual and an evergreen party favourite with a sophisticated funk edge.

Hip Hop Legends

Black Snake Root / Cedar

This top label continues to do great work, serving up hip-hop gems from legends of the scene from days gone by. Next up is another classic from a pioneering MC and producer. 'Black Snake Root' dropped more than 20 years ago but endures as a classic with its smart use of samples, breezy jazz-funk melodies and warm drums all lifting spirits like the dawn of a new Spring day. On the flip is 'Cedar' by the same artist, this time sampling a great West Indian funk and soul outfit to craft a low-slung groove with hooky riffs and noodling bass.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: More jazz-funk gems previously mined by the hip-hop elite excavated and given a gentle rub down before being pressed into tidy 7" single. Yesssirree!
