Here’s a throwback OG Samples mix curated by the Afro’d One during one of his many visits to the UK back in 2005.
Granted, if you are a true #cratedigger, nothing in the mix is very rare or worthy of whipping out your smartphone and firing up Soundhound or Shazam over but as we’ve come to expect from Brother ?, whatsoever he plays is always worth a listen and for those not as versed in the sample finding game, definitely Lessondary and will most likely give you a good case of the SCAR Effect.
