a generation younger than the founders of the teklife crew, dj rashad and dj spinn, dj taye was originally a rapper and beat maker before hooking up with the collective and jumping headfirst into the world of footwork production, dancing and djing. however, it was rashad’s untimely passing in 2014 that was the unlikely catalyst for developing the sounds and ideas for this album.
the 6613 ep from dj rashads vaults will be released just over a year after his untimely passing, with all the proceeds going to his family. some of these songs will be familiar to anyone who saw rashad dj.
vinyl edition featuring new art! features guest verses from cormega, n. o. r. e. , meyhem lauren, freddie gibbs, and more plus guest production from alchemist, dj premier, pete rock, and more
the ghettoteknitianz are a formidable clique of footwork djs who count rashad and spinn (who have previously released eps on mu) among their members, as well as veterans such as traxman, gant-man and younger producers like dj manny and dj earl.
