Space Is The Place w/ Kool Keith, DJ Qbert, Mixmaster Mike, etc



When I set out to make a space-related compilation, I knew that it was gonna be some crazy shit by default, but this may very well be one of the dopest compilations that I've ever put together. It took me months to research, accumulate, and isolate all of the audio for this project. I tried to limit this to 100MB, but I accumulated close to 250 MB worth of space-related tracks, so I'll probably make a second volume at some point. If you have any recommendations, please drop me a line in the comments section.

Space Is The Place Volume 1
1. Mf Doom - Arabic Gum Intro (Instrumental)
2. Ultramagnetic MCs - Kool Keith Model Android #406
3. DJ Qbert - Destination Quasar 16.33.45.78

5. Mixmaster Mike - Solar Panel: Audio Mass
6. Kool Keith - Bitin' My Space Shit (Interlude)

  1. yo looks like a nice comp, but how could u not have anything from Deltron 3030 when you're making a comp about space?

  2. and here's some other recommendations: "Space Age Pimpin'" by 8-ball & MJG, "Prototype" by Andre 3000, pick some joints from Outkast's ATLiens

  3. I'm not really a fan of the Deltron 3030 album, although I love Del's early-to-mid 90s stuff.

    8Ball & MJG could never fit in on something like this. As far as Outkast is concerned, you might want to check the hidden track.

    Thanks for taking the time to leave some comments, though.

  6. Can you re-up this? The Mediafire link isn't working and I'd really like to check out some of the Kool Keith tracks on this.
    Thanks!

  8. I like the Kool Keith tracks of course, but I do have feeling that this comp was made by just by google "space" in hip hop tracks. I expected more from TROY ... sorry.

  11. Justin,

    Damn near all of the tracks that you're seeing on volume 1 are from artists that I listen to on a regular basis. You don't have to be an expert to pinpoint space-related tracks from the likes of Kool Keith, DJ Qbert, Mixmaster Mike, D-Styles, EL-P, MF Doom, Madlib, etc. Most of my time was spent researching tracks that I'd never heard before (the overwhelming majority of which were excluded from volume 1). Yes, I used discogs as a resource, but anybody with half a brain would have done the same. Who is gonna remember all of this shit off the top of their head? I can't even remember last week, son.

  12. just to let you know, the MMMike "cosmic rays" is actually Qbert "bits and pieces remix" (coldcut).
