DJ Scratch x Das EFX - "Real Hip Hop" (Unusual Remix)

DJ Scratch Combines Das EFX's 1995 Classic "Real Hip Hop" With Tom Jones' "It's Not Unusual" For The "Real Hip Hop" (DJ Scratch Unusual Remix).

DJ Scratch returns with another remix of a golden era track, this time dropping a previously unreleased rework of "Real Hip Hop" By Das EFX. The track follows Scratch's decidedly tough remixes of Nas' "It Ain't Hard To Tell" and "I Got A Story To Tell" by the Notorious B.I.G. The latest joint packs a healthy amount of swing as DJ Scratch combines the 1995 classic with a loop of the famous horns from Tom Jones' (and Carlton Banks) signature theme, "It's Not Unusual." Scratch manages to manipulate the recordings just enough to churn out something that plays a bit like Frank Sinatra's "New York, New York." The quirky rework is a truly unusual approach to a golden era favorite that somehow manages to work. Check the track below to listen to "Real Hip Hop" (DJ Scratch Unusual Remix). Download the track via SoundCloud. Stay tuned for more from DJ Scratch.
