Danny Dan The Beatman presents DUSTY FINGERS: THE MIX CD (Rare Original Break Beats)
Danny Dan the Beat Mann Returns with his First CD Release: DUSTY FINGERS - THE MIX CD
Born in the South Bronx, mixing and spinning records since he was 13, Danny Dan is known for creating beats for artists including Biz Markie's "You Got What I Need", Do Wop and The Bounce Squad's "Hit em in the Head" and many more. Danny Dan The Beatmann compiled a treasure of the rarest break beats in the Dusty Fingers collection series and now presents collectors and music enthusiasts with his first CD release, DUSTY FINGERS - THE MIX CD.
The Beatmann returned to his dusty archival collection only to discover over 50 more rare tracks including more rare international break beats from the European states.
The Dusty Fingers Series, Volumes 1-15 were released only on vinyl and contain original obscure tracks treasured by music connoisseurs and DJs. The common, but hard to define thread in all of these songs is that they are funky. The Dusty Fingers series is even more obscure than the popular series "Strictly Breaks" from the 80's.
Many of the songs in the Dusty Fingers series have been sampled into new musical compositions by Hip Hop producers, including "Guilty Conscience" by Eminem, "Find Your Wealth" by Nas and "Rowdy, Rowdy" by 50 Cent. We are certain many music producers will be using this new compilation series for their next music project.
DUSTY FINGERS - THE MIX CD contains over 50 rare break beats that are almost impossible to find. The tracks are divided for easy and random access to each song (not recorded on a single track). DUSTY FINGERS - THE MIX CD is professionally manufactured, sealed and mastered by Digitech studios (not recorded on a CDR).

"It can be argued that Dusty Fingers was the first domestic comp to continually go beyond the well-traveled world of Ultimate Breaks and Beats. The series, which is still shrouded in mystery (is it Diamond? no, but it does originate in the East Village), made a quantum leap in the digging world, introducing many to euro-breaks, badder than the original cover versions, and things called library records. For the first time, Danny Dann the Beat Mann, has been commissioned to create a mix from the series. With such incredible source material, it'd be hard to f*ck this up, but Dann does an excellent job playing guide through the now massive catalog. There's 57 tracks in total, with just enough editing (tracks average about 1:30 in length) and nicely timed doubles. Well over an hour of music." - Turntable Lab
