Beats for days – Tony D (R.I.P.)

tony-d

As De La Soul said, we give you much more. Unlike the trendies we celebrate our icons before the pass away, see our Tony D interview HERE. Our peers have done a good job of mining out Tony’s gems, peep Unkut’s excellent selection and Rock The Dub has a load of interesting links HERE. We went one step further, here are his two breakbeat albums in full for your listening pleasure. They’re ripped straight from vinyl so excuse some of the crackles. We also picked out a couple of less obvious Tony D produced jawns. R.I.P. Harvee Wallbangar.

Tony D – Music Makes You Move LP (Full Album)

Tony D – Flav Beats From The Cave LP (Full Album)

Too Kool Posse – Give Em A Sample (One of the dopest Tony D beats from his crew Too Kool Posse)
