Old School Sunday – PJD Productions “Giddyan de Rani”
Reaching back to 1996, this track came about in the era that Tru-Skool was talking about when he released “In Tha House” recently. Straight up punjabi tunes mashed with a popular Hip-Hop/R&B beat.
I rinsed this tape for months, as it had some popular mixes of some real folk tunes (“Lambran di Noh,” “Umbh da Boota,” “Main Ki Pyare Vichon.”)
This track effectively used the Shabba Ranks sample “Mr. Loverman” with a small taste of Zhanés “Hey Mr. DJ” at the end.
As far as I know, it was the only release by DJ Stin Mattu and DJ Eezback. When I picked up this tape and looked at the inside cover, I saw that it was recorded at PMC Studios. To this day, I feel like PMC has had a hand in the production, since some of the tracks and samples Panjabi MC has used, are in this album.
July 19, 2009 Edit: I got an email from DJ Stin (yes this DJ Stin) that he is DJ Stin Mattu. Dude has made mad albums since then!
