The Insanity Clause - Double Dee and Steinski



If you're not inspired by a Double Dee and Steinski megamix, then I'm not sure why you come to this blog.  On a side note: Thank you all for the kind, complimentary, and supportive words with my latest mix.  As a token of appreciation, I'll be posting a new mix next week.  One of the few positives with my new "situation" is that I have a lot more time to work on mixes.  So much so, I've got 4 mixes locked in the chamber waiting to be released.

Below is the official write-up. Highly recommended.

With partner Double Dee (Douglas DiFranco; a prince) he co-produced the series of records known as The Lessons: The Payoff Mix, Lesson 2 (The James Brown Mix), Lesson 3 (The History Of Hiphop) for the Tommy Boy label. These analog tape cut-and-paste collages, still widely bootlegged (and wildly illegal), are generally acknowledged as three of the most influential works in the world of hip hop and dance music production.

Cited as definitive influences by DJ Shadow, Cut Chemist, and Fatboy Slim, among others. Add to this the fact that Steinski is one of New York’s most sought-after advertising copy writers and it’s easy to see there is a mind behind all this musical greatness!

Video: Double D & Steinski - Lesson 3

Pretty cool video of Double D & Steinski doing a live version of Lesson 3. Can anybody explain to me who is doing what in this video?
