Hey Strutters,

With all of the fantastic mixes (and collection photos) posted here on Soustrut, it's apparent that cats have some serious record collections going on. I've thought about whose collections most intrigue me, and I was curious as to which Strutters' crates you would most like to flip through. The lists could get pretty long, so I decided an arbitrary limit of 10 Strutters to list to force everyone to be selective in making their choices. My list, in no particular order, is:

1. Soulman.
2. Dee Rock (Supreme).
3. Karlophone.
4. Reynaldo.
5. Cosmo.
6. Manny Bolone.
7. DJ Sheep.
8. Delay (Possum Tom).
9. Raw Hamburger.
10. Rockadelic.

There are so many other Strutters I could name, but I kept with the limit. Who are the top-10 Strutters whose crates you'd like to flip through?

Peace,

Big Stacks from Kakalak

    1. Soulman (quite possibly solely responsible for me catching the 'diggin' bug via sending me the WOB2 tape for review when I was working for a rap magazine, thanks brother)

    2. Mr Supreme (just cuz he is the baller on this board)

    3. Cosmo (Philly king)

    4. Kon (impecable tastes in music, his mixes are my favorites recently)

    5. Frank (traveller and archivist)

    6. O-Dub (consistency, good taste)

    7. Dante (funk, boners, he has 'em)

    8. Raj (when they formed voltron, Raj was the head)

    9. Paul Nice (dude is a nut on the record tip... soundtracks, japanese records, the whole 9)

    10. Chairman Mao (always loved his mixes, and he's gots to have the illest hip-hop collection)

    + of course pap, 200 crates and that dude who said he has 60 surefire records and collects them for the samples.

    Honestly, I'd love to go through all yall mofos crates. Everyone on here has heat in one way or another.

  • CosmoCosmo 9,768 Posts
    I gotta admit that I'm really humbled that a bunch of people named me. Yeah I got a lot of shit man, but like there are so many dudes on here that I know have so much heat.

    I guess it's the whole thing about a person's collection being a very personal thing, you know? Regardless, I don't even know where to start... so I'll name 2 dudes who's collections I HAVE gone through in the past and are SICK; TripleDouble and WyzeWays (dude's collection is fucking bonkers, seriously.)

    well, if i'm being called out... ;-)

    honestly, i'm sure i would love to flip through every Strutter's crates, but top 10 for me would probably be:

    DeeRock
    Frank
    MoogMan (is that the right handle for the Brazilian cat?)
    DCarfagna
    Funky 16
    Manny Balone
    Jonny Paycheck
    Peaceful Rotation
    SportCasual
    HarveyCanal

    part of that is based on my specific tastes for boogie/modern soul/80s R&B, Brazilian, African funk, and anything NOLA.

    Top 2 f/this old digger man are (in no particular) order:

    1. Cool Chris
    2. Musica

    I don't think my brother Vinnie Esparza is on here so he gets honorable mention

    It's an honor being placed in the same list as Chris, but to be honest I don't belong there. It's the difference between a 25 year collectro and a 5 year one. Cool Chris = me to tha fif power.

    That reminds me that you definitely belong in my list, Steve. Let's see who gets bumped out!

    I think you post some really good shit, I'd like to see what else you like.


    I can appreciate wanting to get close and personal with the all-stars league's raers and all, but beyond that, people's records say something about them, their history, etc. - I'd like to see crates for those reasons, too. For some folks, I have a slight idea of what they like, but feel like there's much more that just never comes up on this Board.

    Hey Bassie,

    I totally agree with your sentiments, as one's record collection says so much about the collector personally. Could you please elaborate upon the ideas you have of what some of us might like? I bet your thoughts would be interesting.

    Peace,

    im cosigning on the "all yall" sentiment, there sooo many i could learn so much from here...

    and thanks for getting named by some, it would be so fun to have people over just to dig and listen to stuff.

    but to name a few, off the top of my head...

    age because he has consistently schooled me w/o even trying when weve traded and hung in the past.

    rockadelic because GOD KNOWS what hes got stashed away...

    jinx because c'mon, legend

    dcarfagna because same as above

    speaking of "legend" wasnt there a "Legend" on these boards years back who had ridiculous heat? or was it all a smokescreen?

    and that reminds of of Soulman... another one for sure...
    (is Phil Most Chill the same as Soulman or do i have that mixed up?)

    dj sheep because of the world travel aspect and resultant crazy finds

    reynaldo just to see all that minty latin heat in one place. and i imagine its like rogers office in mad men haha

    breez because i think it would be the most fun to dig thru (i imagine a very chaotic setup with stuff jammed into corners and stacked in crazy ways)

    Frank of course (not that i would know wtf i was looking at most of the time)

    shit, just about everyone already mentioned in this thread, i wanna see their collections!!!
