I'm two days late on this (or five days, depending on whether you celebrate a man's life on his birthday or the anniversary of his passing), but in celebration of Dilla's legacy I put together a short mix of some of my favorite songs that he had a hand in creating. Prior to recording this it had been a couple of months since I had touched a turntable, so please excuse the sloppy cuts and ragged mixing. Jay Dee's skills as a producer should more than make up for my shortcomings as a dj:
