what up tone I used to be at the school CES 63 when they would bring their set out dj break out would be at 168 and tinton avenue dam this takes me back to the beginning of hip hop 169th and franklin ave fultin ave washington webster wow I COULD GO ON AND ON LOL I remember we used to chase fat joe out the park
My family moved to the Bronx from Harlem in 1975. We actually lived in the house next door to D.J. KOOL HERC building on Sedgwick Avenue at 1526. I recently heard that our house was torn down but it can be seen in the movie about Hip Hop called, "THE GET DOWN". Back then we would attend Herc's parties at 1520 and at the parties in the various parks in the Bronx. I left the Bronx in 1980 but I have been back and I am proud of the memories I have.
Did you go to Herc's parties before his 1973 Jam?? Most people think the 1973 party was the beginning, but in an interview his sister said they were doing parties before but those were house parties.
I lived in Bronx River during this time. The parties in Bronx River Center during the winter, and behind the Center during the summer time were epic. Bam. Zumbu, Islam and Jazzy Jay played all of these classics.
Grand wizard... Mixing Paradise & I can't stop!! Original Disco sounds B4 it was called Hip-hop! Theodore one of the best things in the beginning of this music style of scratching & mixing! Shout out to DJ Divine The Infinity Machine, South Side, Jamaica Queens, u better ask somebody!
i was 15 and blown away, i had my first two turntables SL 210s and a Numark, couldnt tell me shit, other than i wasnt as nice as Theodore lmao but i worked it lol
@@3hooks781 There was only one disco Star Wars theme, by Meco. It was released in fall of '77 and immediately shot to the top of the charts. I recognized it the moment the needle dropped. It's wild hearing it in the middle of a hip-hop groove.
@@ElaineThompson You are correct! Back then it just seemed like disco and star wars were everywhere! I think I was confusing the song with the John WIlliams disco version of Close Encounters.
Hello ur a year younger than my son. The Super Babies of 1985, 86 & 87 love this unique mix of amazing music, because The Ol Skool Parents, (young like Me 😉) played this & other music around Our Children to hear, as well as appreciate all kinds of music. ✌🏾 ☮️ Peace & Blessings ❤

Sorry to cast doubt on this but Shangri La wasn't released until 1978? I mean there may have been promos of it around earlier, but a year earlier? Hmmmm......
1977??? Then it Had to be after May 25, 1977 because Star wars premiere...La Pregunta - Shangri La Had no promos and released in 1978. Sounds like he was cutting a clean copy also take note if you listen carefully - NO Scratching or Rubbing yet around this time just Merry go round Cuts on a belt Drive TT with lots of Plastic and a 45 glued to the mat underneath ;). The Rapping Style fits into 1978. This tape was probably recorded with a JVC Boombox. They had dope built in mikes
so considering is a sample from star wars, this is after june 77, interesting see how almost all was there by this time, i don´t consider the rappop in the charts hip hop, just pop icons.
So for now this is the oldest hip hop mixtape available online unless someone knows better.
Nerozumim Also, fortunelly, exist in CZcams a sesion of a Block party from 1977 by DJ Stevie Dee & Rodney C.

@@jsaulkane5893 he did actually start in 1977
As soon as Star Wars came out, it was sampled. I love it.
Yeah that caught me off guard when I heard it
There were a few disco records of the Star Wars theme released in 1978. This sounds like one of them.

Sorry to cast doubt on this but Shangri La wasn't released until 1978? I mean there may have been promos of it around earlier, but a year earlier? Hmmmm......

The Rapping Style fits into 1978. This tape was probably recorded with a JVC Boombox. They had dope built in mikes
@Francisco Maninho no it’s definitely 70’s, as cmore global says it is early with the style of cutting, certainly before 1980
yo what is that first breakbeat? by the percs and drums, sounds like it could be ralph mcdonald or donald byrd, or ronnie laws
swadetrackz good point..
i like your ear
Damm, cut off right at King Erickson
I used love when DJ’s mixed that
i was in this err i live on bostan rd and propect ave
This is not from 1977, this is from 1978.
The oldest tape on CZcams is Grandmaster Flash and Keep Cowboy 1977.
Tony tone, Bambaataa and Busy Bee...
I still don't know if he was, but I do know if he was he's the only person that has to deal with it...

Wow great drop
whats the song that starts at 7:52? It says paradise is very nice.. lol
La Pregunta - Shangri La
MrBBoyBugs thank you :)
Pretty sure this is 1978 (according to Steven Hager's book and interview with Theodore).
i dont know why they like pushing the year back. troy smith does the same thing too
Reminds me of the Valley Park in the '70s
I like the funky eargasms from 12:53 on...

CLASSIC THE SOUL COMMITEE ALLIANCE NYC
Meaning Theodore was 14... Impressive.
looks like a meteor clubman one-one dj mixer
What on earth is the drumbreak that he starts this set with..does anybody know???before he starts Apache...
do not worry about the breakbeat is not so important
juan manuel gomez aaah but you don't understand..i kind of owe my daily bread to drumbreaks..quite important i would say:)
juan manuel gomez the breakbeat is THE MOST important. It truly is the foundation of hiphop.
+first school rap
I'm going to guess and say it's a cut from that Captain Sky Album that has Super Sporm on it
+Popcorns Life ...but if this Jam was done in 1977, it couldn't be from that Captain Sky Vinyl.
