grand slam magazine/dhp edit comp

[suenomartino]

a friend hooked me up with a copy of the first issue of GrandSlam magazine which has the full 30+ page article on "the edited history of cut'n paste" (initially printed over 3 different issues of the now defunct 'big daddy' magazine)

I noticed at the end of the article that the DHP edit competition held a little while back was getting props/references, along with a couple of the guys from japan that entered the comp..

-jason Thanks for the info.

we stock that mag too its got a great layout
and is very informative nice cover cd too!

[suenomartino]

the mag is worth buying just for the re-edit/cutup article - its huge.

info and interviews with the latin rascals, coldcut, double dee and steinski, omar santana, dj duke, danny krivit, walter gibbons, etc.. also a good list of essential records to look out for.

my only bones with the article is that there is no real info/talk on the disco re-editing that was happening in chicago.. edits were one of the reasons 'house' even came into existance in the first place!

Issue Two is out soon, with a big Public Enemy interview.... however in the third one (I think) theres gonna be a hefty disco/ hip-hop crossover article written by the same guy who did the re-edits article which is what I'm REALLY looking forward to....
what do you guys think to the mag compared to Big Daddy?
