Whirlwind D At The Rumsey (March 2013)



I had the pleasure of dj-ing at the monthly No Half-Steppin' night in Norwich last weekend.
As usual it was a great evening with such top blokes as DesertRat, Bit, JimCee, Illinspired and Chrome all in attendance.
This month's special guest was the old school vinyl connoisseur Whirlwind D from Solid 'n' Mind spinning a variety of electro, disco rap and stone-cold classics. He even got in front of the decks and did an impromptu performance of 'Strong' and dropped some freestyles.


This is a once-monthly night held in the basement of The Rumsey Wells pub in the heart of Norwich and is free to get in. It really is recommended to anyone with a passion for real hip hop. Come on down and meet the crew, we're all old gits who like nothing better than to get hyped to old hip hop and moan at the out-of-place tossers who wander down the stairs pretending that they're hip.

And for my records, I've decided to reprint my tracklists here. Sorry no audio. You want to hear it? You got to be there!
