Ram Jam - Black Betty (Remix) - 22-Jun-03 12:16 PM
This is a house remix of the 1977 hit by this hard rock/bubblegum group. The next year Ram Jam's original producers Kasenetz & Katz of Buddah records fame would revive the name for an abysmal hip house record on Mic Mac.
USA Breakers - This Beat Is Hard - 22-Jun-03 11:16 AM
This starts with a really cheesy keyboard and a human beat box, reminds me a lot of the Skinny Boys. The beat kicks in in a very Def Jam, slow and low fashion, and the vocals are extremely Beastie Boys influenced. The flip side adds some corny metal guitar to round out the whole 3rd rate Def Jam thing.
This is far from great, pretty much an inferior Skinny Boys, but it so perfectly represents this particular period and style of "hardcore" that I have to give it a 4. It's no "This Beat is Def", but I'm glad I have it.
