I notice you have the date as Feb. 1979. Is that paying homage to anything in particular (birth of hip hop or first hip hop record) or is it a typo?

Thanks for asking, but it's not typo. I'm going back 30 years on folks and bringing back the same feeling I had when Hip-Hop was pure. So many younger kats get into the game with Biggie and Pac as their first idea on what Hip-Hop is, but at that point (1994), personally, I think the realness was fading away REAL fast! Personally, I think Hip-Hop is very much alive, it's just not heard or seen on Radio or TV, but it's thriving in bedrooms and basements all over the world. Eight-O-Eight will be the magazine to find these people, and bring them to light. There will be no commercially known producers/mc's dj's or poets in the mag, and only producers will grace the cover pages.
Nick Speed (on the cover) is a G-Unit producer, but also produced tracks for Elzhi, Slum Village, Talib Qwali, and a few others..
This is a magazine for underground producers, by an underground producer. Someone on here could be on the cover, and any one of us may get our name dropped. You just never know!

Nick Speed did "Weather Report" for Kweli. Dude has some heat and has been around for a minute. Good producer.

That's wassup! You know more than most the people here in Detroit! Most people usually say, "Who's he?" but that's the reaction I want to get. It's time to show the world what real Hip-Hop is all about and show them a side that is rarely seen.
Rap minus Lies = Hop-Hop. Eight-O-Eight is giving folks the truth!

That's cool man. Yeah Nick Speed is whats up. Actually I am a huge Kweli fan, but the new CD fell off I thought. I thought one of the only hot joints was the Nick Speed and Madlib tracks. Thats it.

hey post that emax article

The issue of Remix with Common on the cover (I think that's the last one I received, either Common or The Killers), ANYWAY...that is the LAST ISSUE that will be available in print form. They are going STRICTLY DIGITAL with subscriptions from now on.

They are still selling subscriptions for print or digital or print AND digital.

I stand corrected..."...which is why this will be our last monthly print issue. We're changing Remix into a Web-First vebture, with four print issues a year to accompany each of our Remix hotel events, Miami, San Francisco, New York City and Los Angeles." - Remix, January 2009, Editor's Note, p. 8

recording mag

I dont want to start a new thread so i'll just use this one. If anyone knows where to get the old scratch mags let me know. Im trying to complete my collection. I need Vol 1-5, 8, and 15. (The one with Dre, Kanye, Neptunes, Lil Jon, Eminem, Swiss Beatz/JD, and then P Diddy.)

Until then I'll have to keep getting Computer Music.
