Johnny Dett - Uncut Raw

For those who like their b-boy beats raw like sushi, here's a full-on hour of music to rock to, courtesy of DJ JOHNNY DETT. The mix is entitled UNCUT RAW and the important thing you need to know here is that it was recorded stone cold LIVE. No special effects or musical trickery involved, just straight up badness on two turntables. JOHNNY is a member of the legendary TBB (THE BRONX BOYS) established in 1975 so you KNOW this mix is gonna include some thoroughbred beats that no self respecting b-boy or b-girl can ignore. Plus there are a few scorchers you won't have heard before and will wish you had!
Recently JOHNNY DETT was playing last weekend with DJ SKAMROK in Birmingham at the KING OF THE B-BOYS BATTLE run by DICE. DETT and SKAMROK have together been planning a proper mix CD release using tough b-boy breaks that haven’t been dug up before. It's not quite finished as I write this post but stay tuned to BREAKS FOR DAYS for more details as I get them from JOHNNY. In regards to "Uncut Raw" DETT himself explains ... "I did this live mix when I was getting records together for Birmingham and just pressed record; its not 4-tracked or anything, so excuse the mistakes! But I thought the mix had some good energy and a vibe to it, so here it is."
I agree with JOHNNY the vibe is definitely a good one, and I'm sure you're gonna love this selection of beats as I certainly do. So get listening and look out for DJ JOHNNY DETT TBB as he spins beats regularly in LONDON and around the UK.

Yo, these cats go all out with the break artillery....Damn, they have doubles of all those heaters.....

Thanks for sharing this...FRESH.......Not that it matter all that much, but are they flipping wax or Serato ?..........

Who am I kidding, if they had all those joints on wax, I will have a fucking heart attack..

Peace-

hey fellas, yes this mix is full of b-boy heat.

Drasar, like you I'm sure it's Serato all the way. You know me, I'm a vinyl head so I find it hard to accept rocking mp3s sometimes. But there's no fronting on JOHNNY's choice of music here. I guess it's about time I should get with today's technology and stop mashing all my orginal vinyl!

the debate continues....

Nah, I'm a vinyl head too famz.....I never went out and bought Serato even though the majority of my peeps have...

The mix is dope no matter what type of medium they flipped....But like I said before, if they rocked records I would have truly lost my mind...

Thanks for sharing....Peace-

Does anyone know the tune and acapella used around 41 mins?

Well here's an exception, the track at 41 mins is by Nicole Willis.

any chance of getting a tracklist?
there's a few tracks that ive been searching for long time... like the one in the 35-36minute region
thank you

This mix was made on Serato but I can tell you that all the joints were recorded straight from Johnny’s crates!

Our new 42 track B-Boy Break mix “Let It Be Broke” will be available next month and I can tell you right now that there’s not a download in sight (I didn’t even have Serato when I made my half)!

I’m gonna make my half of the mix available as a free download from next week so you know I’ll hook you guys up!

My side starts on the cool out tip before picking up the pace with some tough uptempo bangers, a good mix of new, old, obscure and classic (but rarely cut up)!

Johnny’s side is hard uptempo shit all the way, like me you’ll be wondering what the hell those dope breaks are... because I’m not one to ask!
;-)

Hope you guys enjoy it!

Skamrok,

what's good cut cousin! I am looking forward to the new mix, like I said before you cannot front on that selection on Unkut Raw. But thanks for clearing that Serato issue up also. Props to real vinyl heads and to TBB.
