sti3 turned me on to this one:

http://www.mastermix.org/

lots of great UK pirate radio hotmixes from the 1980s. mostly hip hop but some house and early breakbeat-style edits.

i also really like the feel of the site.

I'm a huge fan of 4-track hot mixing. Thanks for all your hard work!!!

There is also www.mpiii.com which has a pretty good searchable database of mixes. There are some old goodies on there, but a lot of the sets are more current. It might be a bit tedious to get download 'credits' to participate, but there are some easy ways to do so (briefly submit a review of a mix you listened to, put a banner in sigs on forums that refer people to the site, etc).

no one wants an invite to the mixing bowl? i have 10 to spare....

along with oldskool, we have a good size of new stuff, all styles.

yeah, i do all that stuff for ya

i do have a mp3 blog section, but thats only if you wanna dig, plus it's got some odd music sites as well.

i stay up till the wee hours trying to understand russian, to get sets

i'm on alot of boards i cant understand what the hell they are saying.

but i get fresh shit, and new shit every week.

i would say roughly we have links to around 50,000 mixes/bootleg concerts/demo tapes/etc.

as old links die out, we reup them or replace them.

thanks for the interest, i'm sure you will find something you like.

about halfway down is my list(not all, but alot)everything except the hendrix and marley sets on the very bottom.

I have some of my favorite mixtapes that I've uploaded up on my website at: www.werecordings.com/othermusic.html

Everything from RITM to Dubtribe, all kinds of stuff.

I'm so glad you all have posted some too, it's great to find others out there who still love the ol' skool music. Thanks!
