Take It Personal Flashback (The Remix Show)

Remember the remix? Remember buying that cassette single because you needed that B-side featuring the new remix? Remember the remix that breathed new life into a track you had just started growing tired of? Remember hearing the debut of a new rapper on a remix? Remember splurging and buying that maxi-single because it had not just one remix, but two?

And don't get me started on those unreleased B-side gems. That's a whole nother episode.

The remix is a lost art today, but in the '90s, it meant something. Some remixes had different vocals. Some had completely different beats. Some were just flat-out better than the originals. And some remixes started, and even saved, careers for rappers and producers.

Remember the first time you heard "On the Run"? What about that incredible "Stress" remix? Remember hearing Mos Def on the "Stakes Is High" remix?

Episode 65 is the first installment of our Remix Series.

Thanks to guys like Pete Rock, Marley Marl, DJ Premier, DJ Muggs, Salaam Remi, Large Pro, Da Beatminerz, Diamond D and Buckwild, to name a few, the remix became a staple of '90s hip-hop.

We've got 68+ remixes on Episode 65 and we're just getting warmed up!

At the break, the gang discusses the beauty of the remix. We pick our favorites from each set (3) and take you down music memory lane with stories mixed in with some unexpected hilarity.

This is easily one of our best episodes, ever!
