Here's a live recording of a mix for Power 106 (KCHX) way back in September of 1994 LOL! There is 2 mixes! The first mix is old school and the 2nd mix is mostly freestyle. Thanx to mixcrate for this forum!

    Dope! Love the Ben Liebrand version of Rapper's Delight! A good mix never gets old!

    hey thanks Gil!! BUT, I am pretty sure I played the Ultimix version because it mixed into "And The Beat Goes On". Also, pretty much the only remixes I had access to at the time were Funkymix & Ultimix. Ben Liebrand, no doubt, does have some of the best mega mixes and remixes, way ahead of his time! My favorite is his remix of "I Can't Go For That" by Hall & Oates, which I did not have at the time of this mixtape. Anyway, if anyone is looking for this particular version of "Rapper's Delight" it was the Ultimix version. Thanks again! I have updated the playllist to reflect this.

    Thanks! And thanks for the comment on my mix. Def an honor coming from someone who has been in the biz for so long! I actually have the X-Mix version of rapper's delight which is similar to the Ultimix version. I guess they are similar re-edits / remix of the Hip Hop '89 Remix from Ben Liebrand. Actually Ben Liebrand originally released a mix called Dance Classics - The mix. The rappers delight version is a retake on that mix. Love that use of Black Riot as a sample.

    Def! I just bought a used copy of the Dance Classics - The Mix on CD. Been out of print since 1989 so its a hard find!. Just got it today. This is the version where ultimix took the whispers, and the beat goes on from. The Sugarhill Ben Liebrand which both x-mix and ultimix used: http://www.discogs.com/Sugarhill-Gang-Rappers-Delight-Hip-Hop-Remix-89/release/193650. I love that Peter Brown record. First heard it on an old tape from 92 WKTU Mix by Jellybean Benitez from 1981.
