@nicolabohm Well in a few places in FH, lived in a few squats there, went to Forest Hill Boys School, best friends with CJ's brother and CJ once did a backing track for a song for me. Used to hang out with the Punks in London Road and worked in Counterpoint Records back in the '80's.

thanks for uploading this, been looking for this for years, i lost my old cassette, i had it on a mix of UK rap, forget what the name was.

[nicolabohm]

@dirtyfighter34 do you remember colin then ???? mc einstien , coz ppl only usually remember cj ..which is a shame coz colin was a wicked freestyler x

[rapperskilledhiphop]

i had this record back in 87,used to practice with it on my cheap turntables

[DJCW]

hahaha I used my dads Sharp hifi stack, till I burnt out the belt drive's motor . I used the aux and phono button on the amp as a cross fader. I suppose, punch buttons on mixers does the same thing.

ahh happy memories

[nicolabohm]

@DJCW i was lucky enuff to have a technics seperates system with a sl1200 turn table at 15 yrs old and i used to really want to be a DJ , lol, but i was to heavy handed and kept breaking my needles and they wern't cheap 2 replace lol, thjen i wanted to be a rapper , but was 2 shy ...so i bcome a break dancer instead in the youth club on rockbourne and then the subways at charring x and covent garden ..lol. i was good aswell as i was a gymnast ..the good ole dayz eh ?? x

Fuckin' class...CJ Mackintosh, just a supremely talented DJ, musician and producer. I really got in to him for his house and soulful garage productions, but his versatility is just out of this world.
