Guest Mixes
DR. DELAY
"Brooklynite by way of Richmond, VA., Dr. Delay started mining beats back in 1994. Delay moves crowds by specializing in not specializing. A collector in the vein of Andy Votel and a DJ akin to /rupture (if either had more of a B-Boy stance), his alternate alias Tom Thumz is also down with folks like Fugazi and Pat Martino, but still breathes for that old boom-bap.
An occasional producer, Delay’s catalog includes a few 12” EPs, "The Limitations" and "Rule of Thumb,” a compilation credit and a number of revered mixes. Medium: Rare and second installment Medium: Rare II/Well Done focused on unheralded true-schoolers like Lord Finesse and obscurities like Fila Fresh Crew. His crowning moment to date is a subliminal remix of Nas’ blaze anthem (with AZ at his premature peak) "Life's a Bitch.” Another mix, "Psycrunk," was one of last year’s shrillest DJ turns, weaving psych and crunk. Delay’s latest, Rajaz Meter, veers across the pond, trading classic hip hop for Arabic funk, further flexing his vast digging erudition."
