DJ Food was recently asked to play a night called Classic Material in London. The idea for the club is to give each month over to a year from Hip Hop’s past and only play tracks released during it. He was given 1989 and this set was all done from original vinyl, clicks, jumps and all.

Check the killer tunes from daisy age to proto-gangsta with some hip hop house thrown into the mix… A magic time in hip hop… stream and/or download… enjoy!
