    more so adding a full drum track, sampling sections and such.. it to me becomes either a remix, or a new jam.
    im just defining this based on real remixes of the past and of course house and hip hop....
    ive said this before....
    we/ people dont call dj sneak or armand van helden, todd terry, maw, etc etc.. records where they sample/loop up a 2/4 bar sections...filters and drop a drum track over it...edits. they are referred to as straight up jams.
    by todays standards and this blurred definition, the bucketheads "bomb" would be a great example. thats not an edit..sorry.

    this term is thrown around constantly with other current tracks using the same techniques.
    trusme being a currant example.
    for hip hop, it would be anything under the umbrella of a sample with a drum track. this definition is just wrong, and would reclassify everything that has already exists.
    i think its important to define whats what.

    totally agree on all that. i've heard a lot of people call trusme's tracks edits and that's crazy talk, those are full tracks. i blame the brits, i think they started the umbrella "edit" moniker for all tracks based on disco tunes these days...

    and thanks re: tavares, i agree about the track, it's half deep boogie-ish disco and half philly sound. there's a wav dl on my soundcloud if you wanna grab it for your sets.

  • re reading some of my posts... typing fast, it seems as if english isnt my 1st language.
    ill grab the wav. thanks

    by that definition, these two would be remixes i guess:



    i still liked the term edit more, because i didn't feel like i produced anything there myself. i just mixed in drum loops (and slight fx), just to make already perfect tracks work better in the mix or the clurb...

    despite there being a lot of unnecessary edits out these days (soundcloud is full of them), this thread has been full of gems - thanks!

    Just a heads up the Black Cock edits getting mentioned in this thread are in the Juno sale at the moment for ??1.40 each.

    wow, thanks parkz i've just ordered the whole lot. the original presses go for money these days (those are the represses)..

    Gary Bartz Music Is My Sanctuary (RIP Fonce Mizell) dL edit by Decades

    I managed to delete the start up disk for my mpc so I cant make beats at the moment which means i have been getting busy with edits lately, this is one i think I have a touch over 50 up now

  • Yo dudes, a couple people had sent me messages asking about the JB "there was a time" edit that was floating around, just wanted to let y'all know that it's out on 10" vinyl now.

    I'm spending a lot more time on original productions than edits, but edits are great promotional material, and in a time when no one is buying music it's tough sometimes to justify dropping loot on studio time / session players / etc.

    This is some edit I made recently. One of the heaviest beats on Amiga I knew so far but with a terrible hook, that's taking way too much space. Free DL if you feel it.


  • Really digging your edit Che. Copped the download.

    I've been listening to a lot of edits by The Reflex lately his stuff is fire.
