House Shoes – “The King James Version, Volume 2” (Release)

If you happen to be one of the many Dilla enthusiasts, you may get chills on certain parts of this mix as I did. Especially when he dropped The Weavers sample! With all of that being said, and as a part of Mad Decent Radio, DJ House Shoes has unleashed the second volume to his The King James Version mixes. You can listen below and grab Shoes’ mix from iTunes.

In celebration of James “J Dilla” Yancey’s 40th birthday, House Shoes presents the first half of the follow up to his critically acclaimed “The King James Version” mix, paying tribute to one of, if not the best producer in hip-hop’s history by strolling through some more of the records that were mined by Dilla for his productions. From jazz, to soul, to moog and electronica and more, this mix serves as a reminder to show how broad the range of music that inspired him was. Taken from all original vinyl. No youtube rips. No mp3s. None of that bulllshit.
