nice track list! will listen to it this week..

nice!

Sound's good, but some of those are def not New Jack Swing.

Nice...

Does this have any drops on it?? If so, can you upload the drop free version? LOL!!!

Damehype: I was def going for more the era than trying to make sure every song was produced by Teddy Riley etc.

About time u made a mix. Playlist looks good.

lol, I know, my last mix was back in February.

I just downloaded it...it starts off good, keep it comin'...love it!

Thanks dude!

Your welcome, Steve, thanks for posting it!
I'm at Zhané right now....love it!
"I know it's better when the rhythm works together with the beat in your soul..."
It just puts me in a good mood!

Yeah all this music is nostalgic for all of us almost or over 30 peeps lol

looks promising, thanks for this

You know, we love it!
Aaron Hall - Don't be afraid - ooh wee, that goes straight through! Got goose bumps!

Cool List.

Yup one of my favorite tracks on the mix next to Portrait and Tammy Lucas

Yep, you played a lot of bangers!

Damn forgot all about Zhane Request Line - need to add that to the library - pretty cool so far.

Ha, ha, you are getting old Art Pumpin Payne...
I'm at the last song now, good mix, good work, thank you Steve Dub!

sweet, love some new jack swing

btw what edit is that of Johnny Gill - Rub You The Right Way?

I'll have to double check dalite.

Did you use 3 turntables, Steve?

No scratches were added post-production.

Ahh, I see.

this reminds me of silk shirt and overalls!!

Some MC Hammer pants and sholder pads?

Dope!!! Where's my creepers & z cavaricci's?

These songs ain't New Jack. Especially Tony, Toni, Tone - If I Had No Loot, Their dissing New Jack! " You can new jack swing on my nuts!" Newbies

Steve dub, didn't say they had to be produced by Teddy Riley. Just that some don't qualify as New Jack Swing. New Jack Swing has a song structure that is very specific. Mix sounds good though.

That particular SWV song was produced by Teddy Riley for New jack Swing Productions with Wreckx-N-Effect as a feature, if it ain't New Jack Swing, what would you call it?


Just beause it came later in the era doesn't mean it doesn't qualify.

*referring to the 12" for the Teddy Riley/Wreckx-N-Effect version, I can't DL for some reason so I don't know which version Steve Dub played, but the point still stands, it's not exactly like he played a Waka Flocka song on a Boom Bap mix.

Do you think that is a diss towards the New Jack Swing genre?

BTW, thanks for the mix :)

If these two songs aren't NJS then I really don't know what is?!?!?! Also I think Tony, Toni, Tone just took that Ice Cube sample as a lil stab at him when he was dissing the genre.

Peace

Damn, that is why I love the forum. Opinions and Assholes - we ALL have BOTH.

OK - New jack Swing by wikipedia definition:

New jack swing or swingbeat[1] is a fusion genre popular from the late-1980s into the mid-1990s. It fuses the rhythms, samples and production techniques of hip-hop and dance-pop with the urban contemporary sound of R&B. The new jack swing style developed as many previous R&B styles did, by combining elements of older styles with newer trends. It uses R&B style vocals sung over hip hop and dance-pop style influenced instrumentation. The sound of new jack swing comes from the hip hop "swing" beats created by drum machine, and hardware samplers, which was popular during the golden age of hip hop, with contemporary R&B style singing.

en.wikipedia.org

So if it came out in the 90's and has a Swing beat IT IS NJS. It doesn't have to be THE Teddy Riley signature beat.

Now if y'all really want to argue let's discuss how you all can call Electro Pop - House Music so easily...

Cool, thanks Art Pumpin Payne! I think there was one person in here arguing, only. All others were cool with the mix, knowing that not every song was New Jack Swing, just a nice mix with a lot of New Jack Swing songs in it.

you people arguing about what song is what song need to get a fucking life.

lol thanks Blisk. I don't need to defend the mix. It is what it is, all the songs are great and I think the mix came out nice.

Thank you sir...Very nice mix...Shout out from Chicago! It's cold over here!!!! :(

eat shit.

What up homie!

No thank you sir, I don't like sea food.

What up! When's the next jammy jam guys? Maybe Steve can do a live new jack swing show...clothing and all...It would be called the "new jack swing jammy jam"...I think the next one should be themed!

lol at a themed jammy jam.

If that one person remark was referring to me, I stated that the mix was good. When someone states they are doing a New Jack Swing mix, I expect to hear all NJS. New Jack Swing is my favorite genre, I grew up in that period. So I like to consider myself a student of the genre. All I said was that not all of the songs were NJS but that the mix was very good. It was not intended to be an argument, and if the OP or anyone else got offended then you are pretty sensitive.

And if you need to quote wikipedia to prove a point, that's not the most accurate source

If this project is ever completed, it will be BANANAS...

www.vibe.com

That's how I took TTT's use of the sample. Remember because there was a heated beef between Wreckx-N-Effect and Tribe, Tribe also mentioned TTT in Sucka New Jack, I figured TTT was just owning that shit and saying so what.

Damn we need an edit button, my bad I mixed up the chune, I just woke up and remembered inccorectly but admit my mistake. There was a beef between Wreckx & Tribe though.

So funny. The tracks are hot - Isn't that what's important.

Indeed.

@ Dub - next time make sure you say NEW JACK SWING INSPIRED mix - lol. Add those disclaimers in there before posting.

LMAO

lol no doubt.

I wonder if the flare was invented back then yet. If not I prob shouldn't have used those cuts haha!!!

Qbert was flaring in the 93 dmcs... so ur good. HAHA!

lol ok good to go.

Y'all sensitive. Hey Steve, sorry I gave you constructive criticism. Next time don't preface your post with "feedback welcomed" if you're gonna just shun it. Dude, I complimented your mix. I just said that not all of your choices were New Jack Swing. Sorry dude, "Can't Stop" by After 7 & "Happy" by Surface are not New Jack Swing. But it was a good mix. So my criticism was and is positive. All you other posters that jumped on my comments, well... You can New Jack Swing on MY nut sack. Thanks in advance.

The scratching was dope ass fuck on this mix. I like the song selection to. Only criticism I would give it,if the title is " New Jack Swing Mix" don't put songs like Surface-Happy on there.lol Although I love that song its far from New Jack Swing.

This is what I consider a pure New Jack Swing mix..

www.amazon.co.uk

Good Stuff Dub

I don't think anybody was even talking about you LOL and you're talking about "sensitive"?

Dayumn, all this nut swinging in here...it was just a good mix, I love it!

It was meant to be sarcastic

That's some dope album art!

lol where did I act sensitive? I DO welcome criticism. Now I know if I ever make a mix I better make sure that every song on there makes sense with the title of the mix. If I can change the post I would change it to New Jack Inspired Mix to stop the confusion.

Either way thanks for listening and thank you Spair! (I'm a fan of yours)

My goal on this mix or any mix I make is to make something that people will listen through all the way, I think I accomplished that for the most part so I'm happy (no surface)

I'm peeping yours Dub, go check mine...

Some of you cats are way too hypercritical of others. Post a "NEW JACK SWING" set if you consider yourselves "connoisseurs" of that genre.

LOL I have a mix from a few years ago with a bunch of these same songs, and some other throwback stuff, in the description it says "New Jack Swing/Old School Set"

I better not post it here or I might have a bunch of dudes in polka dot silk shirts and overalls with only one suspender done up waiting to jump me in the parking lot.

Misquote heaven ---- but give us all a link K Smith

or you and/or DJ Shamenn (or somebody) start a new thread and call it New jack Swing mixes (and songs) and maybe the resident NJS expert damehype can post up a mix and educate us on songs from the genre...

(so I don't have to quote wikipedia)

They have a House Music thread like that....

just saw the thread k smith ... serato.com

You and those misquotes Art... Go eat a steak, LOL...

Definitely not a new jack swing mix.



























hahaha. I kid man. Who cares? nm

downloading

Like I said, Art... You can eat a d**k. I mentioned that two songs were not NJS. He even acknowledged it but you jock riders have an issue with me. I gave him praise for his mix but pointed out two songs that were not the genre. I'm sure if I posted a Grunge mix but some songs were not Grunge, but were in the era, you'd have issues. Hell, Luther Vandross' music was around during that era but it's not NJS. K. Smith had great selection in his.

will check this out later tonight, thanks dub

ROTFL...

maybe the resident NJS expert damehype can educate us on songs from the genre...

I was being funny but totally serious at the same time. I know Wikipedia is not the absolute reference about anything but I could seriously use a refresher course on the NJS genre. I bow to your expertise...

In that House Music thread there are over 1000 posts about TRUE House music with YouTube links. I mentioned above about Zhane - Request Line tune. i hadn't thought about that since the 90's. I am glad Dub put that on there, I'm gonna try and drop that at my spot this weekend....

you said:


If you have a working knowledge of the genre, SHARE your knowledge and info. One of my favorite songs of that genre/period was "Don't Wanna Fall In Love" by Jane Child Teddy Riley remix - I LOVE THAT SONG.

Watchwww.youtube.com

Enlighten me on some others please... seriously...

Wow... great mix Dub!

Some of the non-mix-posting-armchair-crtic-no-gig-havin' motherfuckers in here have way too much beach-sand in their vaginas. Post a "REAL" New Jack Swing Mix or have a coke and a smile, and shut the fuck up.

If a mix consists of more than 70% of one genre, then you have every right to call that mix whatever that genre happens to be. Got a problem with it? Don't DL, don't listen and don't bother posting.

Class dismissed!

Hey buddy!!! How are you going to have a "New Jack Swing" mix without the "New Jack Swing" song??? Can you redo this mix for the real new jack heads?? And more Wreckx n Effect and more cow bell. Also take out all that scratching and your name drops. I can't play this out anywhere with your name all through the mix.

Thanks....

One of my favourite New Jack Swing Tracks

Portrait - Honey Dip
youtu.be

some random New Jack Swing videos i found on youtube:
youtu.be

and you can new jack swiiiing on my nuts

nice mix

To keep with the spirit of this thread:

You spelled 'favorite' wrong you jackass!!! If you're gonna post on a thread made by a 'Merican, learn to type in 'Merican.




(all jokes folks... all jokes)

ROTFL @ Jesus C

LMFAO..... I actually debated within myself to spell it the "Merican" way....lol

JC, with all respect... this is a public forum. Why would you post on a public forum if you don't want feedback? That's what everyone here is giving - feedback. If someone says that the title is off - well that's feedback and warranted. But of course it's up to you how important this kind of feedback is. I understand some concerns where new jacks (not the genre ;) ) djs download gigs of audio files, copy playlists, have no clue about music and title everything the wrong way, cause they have simply no clue. Just because you find "Far East Movement - Like A G6" on a New Jack Swing playlist, doesn't make it NJS.

I am *not* saying that SteveDub is that kind of DJ (but not everyone might know him). He paid his dues and his skills are dope, same goes for every mix from him I have heard so far. Still bumping the Westside Classics tape :)

damehype, no need throw in the snarky comments. This is a nice discussion - don't mess it up for everyone else.

Yeah guys can we drop the negative from this post and focus on the mix. Thanks.

The only thing negative i can think of is you didn't get in "Today - Him or Me" but, hey, if we start this type of thinking....the list could go on and on....

nice work BTW...

Hold up now Chris. I started off by giving constructive criticism and feedback, which he asked for btw, and got jumped all over. My feedback was positive. Anyway, it is what it is. If my comments are targeted as "snarky" then how do you explain this :::::

Does this qualify as "snarky"?

And please Steve, tell me how this was any different than the feedback I gave.

dame, two wrongs don't make a right. If you see something that you think is out of line hit the 'Report' button and I'll deal with it.

That doesn't change the fact that your comments were uncalled for.

Fair enough, but people should not ask for feedback if it is not gonna be welcomed. I don't know Steve Dub, but obviously those that jumped to his defense do. If you're gonna ask for feedback, then all feedback should be respected; especially if it is submitted in a respectful manner.

And, at least I had the decency to censor my expletives. Lol

I respect your feedback end of story. Thank you.

Also... censoring expletives is bu****it!

funny, cause i actually thought the same exact thing when i opened this thread. i don't see these songs as being NJS. i didn't read all that much above, but i'm gonna have to agree with this dude. i mean think tony toni tone's feels good is pretty much new jack swing. and i would even go so much as heavy d's now that we found love. but, hi5, i can't say that.

nvm. i re-eval'd and i see what you're doin. you're walking a fine line and opened up from the cookie cutter tracks. ok... i wouldve never thought SWV, hi5 or en vogue and a few others. i guess it works.

props.

wow...when i saw how many replies there were i figured:

a. steve screwed the pooch and totally botched this mix
(highly unlikely given what he has shared thus far with us)

b. this mix was soooo bloody amazing that people were putting up nut shots
of themselfs after listening (NH)

but wow, disputing a 10+ year old paper thin sub-genre?
I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING!!!...scratch that...it is the SSL forum.
microscopes out and at the ready!

Steve I cant wait to check this out, I love mixes with a lil post-production...
a lil bit of elbow grease goes a long way.
The tracklist alone warrants merrit...well done man pickin them.

come on, man. we're the best community of the best djs on the web, worldwide. we're all watchin..........

in mine and gouda's defense. you're somewhat homogenizing an era in music. technically those artists didn't go in wanting to create "new jack swing" music/sound.

and technically, if you go so far as to ask the artists what genre they are in, they would most likely disagree with the new jack genre.

keep it real.

Just because Teddy Riley didn't produce it doesn't mean it's not New Jack Swing...

F**K Censorship!!!

Is this a new nut swing mix? lol nm

And that's all that matters. Great mix by the way! I enjoyed it.

ps.
i made a 90's mix and I put a song from December '89 and November '00 on it.

Oh, no! What were you thinking? lol

hahaha

thanks for the mix dub

just listened too it and it's pretty cool.

ever figure that out, im pretty sure its not an album cut

FInally downloading this shit.

Steve, Kase just called your mix "shit!"

lol

My friend who's really into this genre of music downloaded your mix and called me up and said "This mix is off the chain!!". I'm enjoying it too, thanks Steve.

Damn... there's another one! It must be "pick on Steve Dub day!"

Been bumping this again because the thread popped back up--props on a nice smooth mix.

But you need a cleaner sounding copy of BBD - Do Me. That part sounds awful.

"disputing a 10+ year old paper thin sub-genre?"

:)

LoL @ Jesus. - u just can't win Dub.

nice mix Steve Dub...much respect!

As Steve Dub's ego gets bigger, lol. (nm)

Thanks again for listening!

I downloaded this a few weeks ago. Listened to it 2 or 3 times already. Very nice work Steve. Threw a couple tracks in there I'd forgotten about and haven't heard on the several new jack swing mixes I've downloaded in the past year or so.

great mix. coulda used some Motownphilly though!

boyz II men, abc, bbd, the east coast family!
LOL

Looks like the link was deleted, it can be downloaded over at mixcrate.com. Here's the direct link.

nice mix Steve Dub ....

damn... this mix brought me back

Great mix brought back some good memories :) Does anyone know that song with the lyrics "i've been waiting so long"? It had a new jack swing feel to it. I believe it was in the 80's.
TIA
