Pre:seed
As DJ-ing, its culture and tools of choice have changed, there is still one fundamental thing that separates the men from the boys, and that’s their record collections. From years of digging and hunting down records (often crates at a time) - at home, abroad and more recently through the internet - Tu-ki has used part of his artillery to create Pre: seed – a mixtape (available on CD) that pays particular homage to old skool electro and hip-hop, much of which lay the foundations (and samples) to an emerging rave and dance scene - which are also represented on this 80 minute voyage.
Tu-ki’s ambition to represent his influences from over the years, as well as what he sees to be landmark moments in modern music, are encapsulated within Pre:seed – a mix that also contains many rare pressings and sought after releases. In an age where the mixtape has often been forgotten in favour of low quality mp3 link downloads, Pre:seed reminds us of the work, thought and technical ability that may have seemed more important in the ‘old’ days, but which are now more vital than ever. While Pre:seed is also an ode and sign of respect to the flagging record shop, it’s more importantly a killer mixtape that you have to hear.
