Mix : Black Moon 'Enta Da Stage' 25th Anniversary Mixtape

"Released October 19th 1993, Black Moon's classic debut LP 'Enta Da Stage' celebrates its 25th Anniversary this week. Produced entirely by Da Beatminerz, the album's production style epitomises early 90s East Coast boom bap sonics with laid back, filtered jazz-funk samples meeting crunchy drums, cut choruses and gritty wordplay. In celebration of the anniversary we've teamed up once again with Wax Poetics magazine to present this exclusive mixtape pairing album tracks and remixes with their sample sources, interview snippets and more. Mixed by Chris Read." - WhoSampled
