summer of 89. Dr Dre produced D.O.C. 

JAM ON IT,, JAM ON IT.  

dooby dooby doo... looking for the perfect beat.

Roots of hiphop. Seventies last week, 80s this week. This is that awkward time when the full on weird funk groups with their wild dress sense met the  electro groups beats and basslines.

Roots of hiphop. The funk is strong with this one.

Old school rules. 

Roots of hiphop. One of the first breakbeats to get the cool herc "merrygo round" treatment. Basically using two turntables to loop the breakbeat.
