Remembering Dilla & Pun
“J.Dilla: Still Shining” from B.Kyle on Vimeo.
This week we remember both the birthday and the untimely death of my favorite producer of all time, the inimitable J Dilla. When he passed 5 years ago I wrote this post. Around the same time, a lot of the footage in this retrospective video was filmed by Brian “B. Kyle” Atkin.
Peep the short film above, and then head over to Stones Throw’s site to order a new “Behind The Beat” poster by Raph Rashid.

Sadly, this week also marks the anniversary of Big Pun’s passing. My man DJ Soul released this excellent tribute mixtape, available for download here. Tracklisting after the jump.
Big L Tribute Mix by DJ Soul
It’s pretty baffling that there hasn’t been a definitive Big L mix after all these years. It’s also crazy that it’s already been 10 years since his passing. You can always count on DJ Soul for a thorough retrospective though, and as expected he delivers exactly what the legacy needed.
Highly recommended, download the mixtape HERE.
