Description

  1. The Turtles - "I'm Chief Kamanawanalea" (Chief Rocca edit) (3:42)
  2. Steady B - "Serious" (BDP 12" remix) (4:28)
1968's "I'm Chief Kamanawanalea" is perhaps one of the greatest forgotten nuggets of pure breakbeatism, and the original by The Turtles dates back to 1968. The date isn't perhaps that surprising in relation to the sounds used and the quirkiness of the tune, but it's the fact that it sounds like straight-up hip-hop from early 80s NY; Chief Rocca aka J Rocc does a bit of editing on this version, Side A features an extended version of the drum break but the meat and bones of the original are definitely there. 
The original was sampled by BDP in their remix of Steady B’s “Serious” and features The Blastmaster, KRS-One. This is the 12” Remix which has never before appeared on a 45 and this one is a pure throwback hip-hop banger like they used to make them - think Run DMC but much more from the underground.
