DJ SIGNIFY - SIGNIFYIN' BREAKS - TRACKLIST - COUNTING ON YOU HEADZ OUT THERE ...

















This is a message to all crate diggers and music lovers. For a long time I wanted to put the tracklist for one of my most favorite tapes in personal history - "Signifyin Breaks" by Dj Signify - together. I made it a long way, but havent got everything. Some names are on the tip of my tongue but I just cant spit them out.

The tape - rotaug's very own berserka bought at Fat Beats NY (* 1994, † 2010) way back in '97 - never had a tracklisting on the cover and for whatever reason I want to put it together. In a way this tape was a new experience for me back then; going back to the samples, the breaks, to where Hip Hop (among other things) comes from. Signifyin' breaks "anyone" should know as I would say. Still a hard job to name them all. But; here's what I have and the "???" are what we're trying to find. I put a recording of the (quite worn) tape (.zip) online, so you know what we're looking for.

I put my part of the tracklisting in the comments, ... dont hesitate adding a number or two or ... I'm sure I missed something inbetween.

Dj Signify - Signifyin Breaks (Mixtape 1996, discogs).
