Beat Tape Volume 1 - Mixed by Fake Blood

Recommended from the 8:10 mark forward.

Here are a load of instrumentals I've made over the past few months, grouped together in a mixtape.
But I've laced them all with acapellas from some of my favourite MCs / tunes - basically what I had in my mind's ear as I made the tracks!
So you've got Mobb Deep / Lil Wayne / OC / Wu-Tang / Gucci Mane / MOP... and loads more.
But over some unreleased Fake Blood beats.
Enjoy... Putting together a Vol.2 at the moment.

Used Volume 7 - Mixed by Fake Blood

One of the more liked (if the not the most liked) mix series to post on this blog returns. Volume 6 was supposed to have been the last mix. Let's hope for a volume 8. Highly Recommended.

Here is the 7th edition in my USED series.
I said I'd stop at 6, but I couldn't really do that, could I?

As with all the previous volumes, it's 100% original pressings of old tracks sampled in classic Hip Hop tunes, loaded into Serato (to save them getting wrecked and cos many of them are super rare), and then cut up on 2 copies.

Enjoy...

Used Volume 6 - Mixed by Fake Blood

Volume 6 of one of the finer mix series in recent memory. Enjoy.

Used Volume 5 - Mixed by Fake Blood

I first posted these mixes 2 weeks ago and they were a big hit. Well, Fake Blood posted volume 5 the other day. Enjoy. Highly Recommended.

Used Volume 3 - Mixed by Fake Blood

You all didn't think I'd post volume 4 without posting volumes 1-3 did you? Volumes 1-2 after the jump.

Used Volume 4 - Mixed by Fake Blood

Forgive me Lord of Mixtapes for I have sinned. I confess that until a few hours ago I had no idea who Fake Blood was. I'm just going chalk this up as another example of my American-centric bias blinding me from the more beautiful things in life. Long story short, this mix of dusty breaks is Highly Recommended.
