i've got an es1 mkII..what are you using into the smart media slot?is it an adapter?how it works?

[jvcforce]

@Birinnao It is xD card to SmartMedia card adapter. Since SmartMedia cards are very expensive in used market, I use xD cards with the adapter. The adapter is very cheap, you can buy one for 5 bucks. 64MB memory card is the maximum ES1 (and mk 2) can handle.

32MB card is sufficient for ES-1.

You've done it again bruh! This was one of my favorite joints back in the day & for a while I didn't know who made it, lol! I got a cassette somewhere with this & a lot of other old school hip hop on it! You always make the day when you come on with those remakes! Great post, stay up!

[jvcforce]

@Sinosure I now realize that many of viewers were wearing diaper (or not even born yet) when this joint came out... I feel old... You might have a ca-single (cassette single!) of this joint!

@jvcforce Really enjoyed this breakdown of the history regarding Paul C. Thanks a lot homie.

[jvcforce]

@funktuall I love your video clips, (especially interviews) keep the good work!

[rustyshite]

seems like your newer videos are smoother than the old ones. everything loops spot on now

@Sinosure Paul C changed sample beat game. His sample chop technique was so a head of the time, actually he created sample chop technique that so many hip hop beat makers now use it as templates or examples. Unfortunately his life was cut short so early. One of the unsung heroes in hip hop history.
