15 years of ENDTRODUCING celebration featuring INTRODUCING playing the entire album fully live

HMV Forum / Friday 15 April 2011

Tickets flying out for this one off show.....

[chris45rpm]

Plenty in London. I reckon the place needs a few collectables on the wall - looking a bit 'clean'.

[pedro911212]

if only there were shops like these in northern ireland

[meganntron]

weakness for 12".... I BET HE DOES

[NashvilleDJ615]

Hey does anyone know what this is from??

[zulu26]

@NashvilleDJ615

"Scratch" documentary

[NashvilleDJ615]

@zulu26 Cool. I've only seen the actual documentary. Been searching for the dvd for a awhile. I've got All The Way Live which is incredible.

[canonshooterla]

fuckin dick it's 2 dollars...dont get me wrong I love his music but why be super anal over a two dollar record

[uncledub]

the humble pie track he plays is 'i'm ready'. off the 3rd self-titled album,

[thanape]

Cut chemist goes into the crates like a coniseurr on a mission. great video. love the hosts, LAs finest puttin in work.

[ZapatasBlood94]

I swear I thought he was gonna say "shit" at 2:58

[EntaDetroit]

spoon

[bobdogner]

Witness the vinyl spec'ing superpower of the record store übernerd. I blew so much cash and time on buying records it's just great to see someone who has turned into a career. Me, every time I move I curse my records to hell.

[dronken]

@bobdogner ...hahahha yeh man i hear ya

[MachiniOsFP]

Ah my local record shop closed but i still have 2 others in town.

[hotsinglemum]

@MachiniOsFP congratulations...

[deepcrates908]

good digs-check my channel for THE CRATEShow- you might enjoy and laugh!

[conradhartgmx]

Wow, he's behaving like an asshole in this store, touching the records all over the place, like they were already his'. Or maybe I'm just jealous, lol.

[drumandrokid]

@conradhartgmx

he s making a video for everyone to see worldwide ..................and I dont think the record shop owner will care much having Chemist touching his recordsss!!!!!!!!

and he s just showing few tips to buy and checking out conditions......just the routine.....u know??..........

no need to complain so hard dude.....

(jejeje)

[Rssachs]

@conradhartgmx i mean hes Cut Chemist, he can do whatever the fuck he wants J5 forevaaaaa

[EON352]

yeah its hard to find a good store. that last two ive been two had a horrible selection. but its hard to be picky when vinyl is becoming more and more scarce.

[mtsnow12]

hes the man

also, i love how this video is under the category "chemistry"

[d4nd34c0n]

Sick, I know where that is.

[DZA9mm]

im heading to my local Goodwill tomorrow lol ima look for a new Needle as well

[thefrontline23]

who gives a fuck about the sleeve

[dakingofdano]

fuck you

[PATMEooo]

got to see him dj at the getty!

[CanadianBacon204]

its called being a die hard.. think about it thats what makes him great.

[jaevlahora]

whats the song 3:17 ?

[GuitarPlayerSkaterdu]

This guy is a genius.

And his shirt is amazing, haha

[seanmurray90]

humble pie.. wow my dad has humble pie records,orininals,aha i remeber them when i was 5 years old . i dont need no doctor i think was a song i liked?? hah

my dad has thousands of records ,, i need 2 sample some of tat shit!!

great video.

i personally dont own any vinyl..im 2 broke right now..

i need help.. any good record stores in orange county california? i know ameba records in hollywood.. but anywhare closer?? i need some help!

[MrThielBeats]

Man, if you don't have a lot of cash just check out your local thrift stores. I to one near my house every once in a while and every record is ten cents. Their selection is horrible though.

[LittleBlueBunny]

have his collaboration with dj shadow and it's pretty cool... but what i want to know is where did he get that shirt?

[jeianafa12547dj]

Me too I like the shirt.

[lawofpsysics]

he was chill as shit when i met him

[humanvynil]

he can have the shittiest personality on earth i don't give a damn because he makes good beats out of forgotten records. if you ain't seen it yet try "product placement".

[ourvinylcollection]

i'm curious..what makes the vinyl go 'shhhhh'....'shhhhh'....'shhhh­h' even though there's no visible errors (warped / scratched) on the vinyl? i have a couple that do that and i can't even see what the problem is.

bad quality vinyl?

[wymerinmassive]

i think its just the way they are like you know the friction under the needle when its moving must be making a noise.

[XavierNarez]

could be hella dust building up under the needle as its playing, check the needle and see if you can pull even the slightest bit of dust out, happens to me sometimes

[ourvinylcollection]

nope that's not it. i'm obsessive/compulsive...everyth­ing is mint before i start playing....but yeah good suggestion -- i can see how that could happen.

[XavierNarez]

time for a new needle? no clue

[ourvinylcollection]

nawh it only happens with a few records. i better not need a new needle. they're 150 each.

[XavierNarez]

maybe its the record and yeah those things are fuckin expensive i was lookin em up cuase i've never had to buy one and i was like damn... i hope i never have to

[HugMontreal]

but thats the cool about vynil

this 'shhhhhh' noise

[asfaltorealdelmonte]

CUT CHEMIST!! UN GRANDE!

[Aardvarked88]

Woah, what a cracker.

[Graphwize]

lol hes a lil 2 picky on how clean the records are.

[keylikesfood]

because he collects them as well...

[coathangermidwife]

i love the humble pie break he found!! steve marriott is the man! theres even a nice small faces drum break as well

[roboshuffle]

Great little video... I love Cut Chemist.

[BIGDO13]

ill vid...surprised to hear that Cut Chemist likes to grab a lot of his records from 81', usually it's like from 68' to around like 1973.....either way, he always did have a lot of really ill drum breaks on his beats....damn shame he left Jurassic 5....

[ciatorture]

Cut needs a haircut

[Adam13203]

lol

[se7ense7]

Lol it's great to see 'cut chemists friend' turning all the records right in the tray while digging, he doesn't even seems to know he's doing it, like a automatism...

Cool thing to see!

[MattMadarang]

ha ya man thats pretty funny

[enkayproductionz]

that actually is cut chemist on 445 i dont remember the name but on his latest wich really isnt to new. but yea hella nice video

[stuckinthetrees]

what a great piece!

[biffhead]

Does anyone know what the name of the tune playing in the background is from 04:45 onward?

And the vocalists name???

[Testicleze]

the song is "The Garden" by Cut Chemist

the vocalist is Astrud Gilberto

the original song is called "berimbau" by Astrud Gilberto

[yogihaughton]

Fuck sake, jus' slap tha shit on a sound burger, if it plays buy tha shit, stop pontificating. You would think you had a copy of Family Of Eve or The Del Larks in ya hand.

[CrAzYffRoG]

sick

[Eyeronik33]

Cut Chemist is sick....and he has such a dope name

[surcharge1982]

ooh... Ike's Funky Mule, not much diggin' there? perp.

[vunamese]

i saw him in LA a few months ago. he put on an amazing and flawless show. hes so laid back about it

[1981chrismartin]

This guy knows what he's looking for!

Tickets to see him and Shadow arrived this morning, cant wait!

[mrvidiot]

This is way dope no one can reproduce the sound of the Jurassic 5 because there's only one master of diggin' and that's Cut Chemist!

[dobby240]

i like this guy ^^ excellent talent

[Nkerklaan]

I'm pretty sure when he's getting all anal about the condition of the sleeve, the pressing, etc., it's because he's looking to collect the records. He's not JUST digging for breaks.

[kidgorg]

Yer i think your right! Bloody nice drum break he found aswell!! he looks like such a fun guy to go diggin with..

[DJWelfare]

Chillin motherfucker.

Hes got it right thoug, diggin for 12s is an addictive game!

[freekyzeeky12]

yea it is... diggin is addictive it can take up alot of money..... but today i scored some (40) albums for 25 cents each and they were in excellent condition. DITC 4 LIFE

[hendrixonlsd]

yeah, i love dollar sections of records stores... ive gotten some good stuff from those shelves

[MEGAMANG]

cut chemist is my nigga

[Dottin]

Going Diggin' Tommorow! Gunna find me that ill beat! Bringing Back the Premo, Pete Rock, Large Professor mood! Peace x

[alliance2468]

Cut Chemist is the isn't the greatest digger but fuck he is still fuckin dope, & a character at that. All you bitches that hate on this can go play with they shiny cd's....

ONE 2 CHEMIST!!!

[Pookie250]

walls ae plain.

[goonbot3030]

yeah gets some posters up place looks like a funny farm

[azikio]

i like his shirt "i watch you" reminds me of obey...

[maxpounder]

much respect

[runedotstumble]

nothin like poppin on an old lovin spoonful record, puttin your feet up and having a nice hot mug of cocoa

[raulbot]

makes me want to go diggin

[tab1990]

my record shops are so overpriced its a joke that he can get a record for a buck

[TRAM22]

I think anyone just starting digging would find that a helpful few minutes..and i wish i had a record shop like that near me too...here in Japan ...its either re-cyclye (second hand) shops or usually overpriced record shops. There is a cool chain in Tokyo called Disk Union though... the biggest being in Shinjuku. You can always losea day in there. And...i fail to see how this guy is a tool.

[goodiegoodstuff]

nice work wish i had that lil record store down the street ....australia is all charity stores baby

[monrominee]

"stupid ass giving away his spots "

Yeah, like NOBODY would notice the words "record recycler" in BIG letters on a window of the storefront. Anyone who gave a damn would know what was up there already.

Genius.

Oh, and to the guy who said Chemist is a tool, please. More skills in one hand than in your whole gene pool.

[fotojock32]

I'm going there! Wonder if they've got 8-tracks. Aye y'all this is truly a "magician" (pronounced musician)

showing you his tricks. No cards up the sleeves and all, just the basic fundamentals in "performing"

(pronounced producing) magic. thanx Cut.

[MEGAMANG]

this is funny as fu^K

[TJfromLP]

i will be there in June

[MEGAMANG]

if it got the word RECORD in it diggers are gonna look its the places that dont have shit to do wit records that u dont want no one to know about

[WESTARD]

cut chemist is a tool

[WAXPOETIKS]

This is one of the spots i dig at, why did he give it up like that, oh well!!! they got good shit though

[sorenpoulsen]

stupid ass giving away his spots

[rutiger45]

it dont matter what he gives away, you morons dont know what too look for!

[intrikatemind]

Well... if u got the records he wanted, it would be a shame. Your sampling wouldn't come close to becoming as good as the cut chemists.

[bitybity]

weirdo#s

[imsothemanXD]

hwy would i spend 2 dollars for somethign with warps and scratches so if i find a good part of a sample and its f'd up ill be mad hes being cautious, real diggers take care of their vinyls aswell....you dont use it and toss it on the floor you keep it nice..but thats my opinion...

[wicklesgadget]

Love to the Cut Chemist!

[ezekel2006]

hea does he favor andy cofman alittle??

[felixdadeathcat]

Forgot to say. Cut Chemist = Ledge.

[felixdadeathcat]

You obviously don't understand record collecting. Yes if you find something good and cheap its good but its probably not that rare. And he says only says about the sleeve for collecting, which is fair enough. And being a DJ if you know something is a bad press you don't buy it like.

[grgrgrgff]

chemist is an ass with all that checking the jacket for scuffs and worry about the press version. if you find something good and it's cheap you're not going to put it back because the sleve is torn.

[PabloDoom]

Cut Chemist-genius-THIS IS HIP HOP!Forget ya chart toppin imitation gangsters,they aint worth 50cent if u know what I mean? cut chemist aint got no video game on sale mate-

[c0mplexphoneticistz]

Thats bullshit about not keepin the 1 dollar record coz of a bit of cover wear.

Real diggers do shit like breakin into warehouses and walkin through flooded shitholes full of desiese and dead rats pullin records out of the water and shit.

Its about WHATS ON the record, not what condition the covers in..

He's probably missing some of the dopest shit due to that stupid mentality.

Hiphop aint about pristine clean, its about dusty records and makin do with what u got

[theewok]

dude get your head out of your ASS and get your ASS out of the couch. YOU WATCH TOO MUCH TV!!!

[c0mplexphoneticistz]

What u talkin about?All i do is make beats and dig,in the mean time chill on this.

What i said about flooded wearhouses etc is quoted from Kon and Amir,if u knew of them ud know they some of the biggest diggers around,MUCH bigger on diggin then Cut Chemist.

U show ur childishness by coming with something as petty as u did.Everyone else is droppin knowlege and what they thought on the subject due to people having different views.

[TJfromLP]

I agree, that was kind of ugh...but that's his preference

[archetype616]

chemist is probably one of the sickest dj's out there its not about the price, every record is only worth as much as the dj can make make it, chemist can take any old record and turn it into gold

[jnorth]

nice video. Chemist is dope

[dboe]

gota love diggin thats how i get 80% of my beats

[tomroadrunner]

chemist kills it!!!

[ohanga2000]

fist of all 95 u should go check out the movie turntabilism they clearly show that it doesnt matter the price of the danm record u buy just what u find on it

[ezekel2006]

He might be a cool cat to do diggin wit!!!

[vegbird1]

Hymnal is the man!

[95BPM]

no, some people are just CHEAP. You gotta put money into music to make it back

[Shemxl]

'You gotta put money into music to make it back' - idiot.

[95BPM]

damn man go take a bath ffs. 1 dollar record & your that fussy? ffs give it up

[DBixler]

Well, some people take pride in what they own; this means not wanting to add a piece of crap to their collection, even if it is only 25cents.

[DjRavine]

Cut Chemist is awesome! He's gonna be at Parklife in Sydney.

[aaasamaaa]

agreed
