London based producer Kensaye Russel, who Lost Tapes readers might remember from his B.I.G./Warren G tribute remixes, has dug into his crates in the process of creating "Original Classics" for The Find Mag. The mix features a ill selection of classic joints that heads will find familiar as the backbone of many sample based masterpieces of the '90s hip-hop scene. Here's of course a lot of vintage soul stuff, from the legendary likes of Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, The Temptations and so on, but there's also a bunch of different genres represented here. Worth checking out!

Kensaye's Tribute Remixes
UK producer/percusionist Kensaye recently put together this remix for B.I.G.'s "My Downfall" in celebration of the recent anniversary. With a real atmospheric, syntehsizer driven sound, I'm feeling how different this comes off from the sinister original while still matching Biggie's flow perfectly. I also added an older tribute remix Kensaye done, this one to honor Nate Dogg who had just passed.
