Barrio Jams 4

The "Barrio Jams" mixes are named for our friend Barrio, and based on the Hip-hop/Soul mixes I made for others in high school. Barrio Jams 4 continues with songs in those lanes (and other lanes of Black music) that I've liked over the last decade or so ending 2023.

Barrio Jams 1

The "Barrio Jams" mixes are named for our friend Barrio, and are the Hip-hop/Soul mixes I made for others in high school. 

Barrio Jams 1 is from the early 2000's and a (rough) re-introduction of the concept due to DVS systems like Final Scratch pro becoming available, which opened up the possibilities of recreating the mixes on turntables with digital files. Throwback to the many songs we were listening to back when they were just literally mix "pause tapes" in the 90's.
