So in 2012, Ayres dropped a nice little series of mixes with the insanely talented Mike 2600 designing all the cover art. For today’s #TBT we revisit the DJ Ayres’s Laboratory set that’s loaded with catchy indie dance tunes, remixed pop gems and some tastefully turnt levels towards the end. Ace as always. Stream and download this one below.

#TBT The Rub – Under The Boardwalk
Posted: August 6, 2015 Filed under: TBT, The Rub | Tags: TBT, the rub
For #TBT this week in the most literal sense possible, we revisit the Rub Radio mix, Under The Boardwalk, from last summer. To be completely honest, this mix contains some of the most classic songs ever made and Ayres and Eleven put it together last year as an official send off to summer. While it seems that summer is still going strong, kids are getting ready for their return to school and pumpkin spice season is coming way sooner than you might expect. There’s nothing on this mix released after 1968 just to give you a perspective on how timeless this music really is. Revisit this tasty summer send off below.

#TBT The Rub – Rub Radio July ’12
Posted: July 30, 2015 Filed under: Rub Radio, TBT | Tags: TBT, the rub
So as The Rub celebrated year number 13 last weekend with an amazing event, it only makes sense to #TBT to 3 years ago where the first decade was put in the books. On the July 2012 Rub Radio mix, Ayres and Eleven mixed so many different styles of fire current records incredibly well (like always), showcasing a couple of Meek Mill sightings, funny enough. On top of it all, Just Blaze was the guest for the year 10 celebration and he’ll be headlining The Rub’s first jump off at Verboten coming up in just 2 weeks on Friday, Aug. 14th.

#TBT DJ Ayres – Mixpak FM 025
Posted: July 16, 2015 Filed under: DJ Ayres, TBT | Tags: DJ Ayres, TBT
TBT this week is an incredibly diverse and banging mix from DJ Ayres that dropped via the Mixpak crew back in 2011. As an entry into their long running mix series, Mixpak FM 25 is loaded with all sorts of tropical and bashment vibes over the course of 70 minutes and runs through a ridiculous tracklist that sounds very fresh 4 years later. Whether it’s classic jungle, roots era dubstep and vintage dancehall grooves or even the moombahton and tropical bass sounds that were very relevant at the time…this mix is still quite the summertime turnup. Stream and download are both available on this one below.

#TBT DJ Eleven – 50 Minutes of Fresh
Posted: July 9, 2015 Filed under: DJ Eleven, TBT | Tags: DJ Eleven, TBT
As one of the most prolific producers ever in rap music, Mannie Fresh’s resume of tunes is relatively insane. His reign as the go-to in-house guy at Cash Money Records is arguably responsible for starting the careers of Lil Wayne, Juvenile, BG…as well as his own group in Big Tymers. While that Cash Money ship has long since sailed, Mannie Fresh has collaborated with a who’s who of the rap world and imagine my excitement when I came across Eleven’s mix from 2009 last night showcasing so much of this stellar catalog. This one is a must revisit ASAP. Stream and download are below.

#TBT DJ Ayres & JD – Houston For Dummies
Posted: July 2, 2015 Filed under: DJ Ayres, TBT | Tags: DJ Ayres, TBT
Houston rap is amazing. It was great for a long time before it ever broke into the mainstream and it’s still extremely rad to this day. For #TBT this week, we revisit the mix Ayres and JD put together to showcase the history of the area’s sound right as it’s time in the limelight was at it’s peak. Digging deep into the crates, Houston For Dummies showcases classics from bonafied legends such as UGK, The Geto Boys and Devin The Dude and regional anthems from the likes of E.S.G., Big Mike, Lil O and many more. Basically, let this be your guide to one of the coolest scenes in rap to ever come about.

#TBT DJ Eleven – Best of the Bay 2
Posted: June 18, 2015 Filed under: DJ Eleven, TBT | Tags: DJ Eleven, TBT
With Str8 West Coastin’ kicking off at Project Parlor this Saturday in Bed-Stuy and the Golden State Warriors winning the NBA Finals this week, it only makes sense to #TBT to the second half of Eleven’s Best of the Bay mix. Much like the first half, Eleven runs through classics on all levels of West Coast hip-hop that it feels like it’s easily the most appropriate soundtrack right now. West Coast is the best coast as they say right? Well maybe at least for this week.

#TBT DJ Eleven – White Light 20
Posted: June 11, 2015 Filed under: DJ Eleven, TBT | Tags: DJ Eleven, TBT
I gave Ayres the nod on some house music flexing last week for #TBT and some quick poking around the internet brought me to this mix from Eleven. If you’re unaware, the White Light Series has been going since the back in the Hollerboard days and has an incredibly storied history. The series is currently up to episode 118 now and Eleven got in early at 20 with so much choice disco flavored house music from like 5 years ago that has obviously influenced a lot trends on the currently burgeoning global house scene that appears to be way more about vibes than trying to turning up. Eleven himself explained the mix as “I set out to make a mix from records I never get a chance to play out that would provide the perfect soundtrack to the walking, turnstile hopping, dude-selling-his-beat-tape-out-front-of-Fat Beats-avoiding, taxi-hailing, dollar-van-riding, slice-grabbing, coffee-on-the-run-drinking, and then walking a little more that is getting around the Rotten Apple.” Stream and download are available below.
