In celebration of the 20th anniversary of 93 ‘Til Infinity, Souls of Mischief graciously opened their vaults to give Gummy Soul the exclusive acapellas of their classic album, to remix for the first time ever.
As the framework of the project, Gummy Soul’s Wally Clark, dug through his extensive record collection, and gathered all of the songs that were sampled to make hip-hop in 1993. Jazz, Funk and Soul songs, used to create classics from Digable Planets, Snoop Dogg and Black Moon, were then re-contextualized to provide familiar, yet updated versions of some of hip-hop’s most beloved material.
“I wanted to take all of the records that people used back then, and create new compositions using the same techniques they were using – such as filtered bass lines, classic drum breaks, echo-y horns – to make an album that sounds like it could have been released in 1993,” says Clark. “It was an amazing exercise trying to capture the essence of a sacred time in hip-hop. It also allowed me to playfully use samples that are normally deemed off-limits, because they are too well known.”
Be on the look out for Soul’s of Mischief’s new album “There Is Only Now,” produced by Adrian Younge, as well as the 93 ‘Til documentary, featuring Questlove, Mos Def, 9th Wonder, Pete Rock and more.

Gaines was cast as the lead actor in the award-winning short film Kung Fu Bum (click to watch trailer), one of several visuals Gaines and 2 Hungry Bros are releasing to commemorate Rumspringa’s release.
“‘Super ID” is me introducing myself to the world as a solo artist,” says Gaines. “I’m letting the people know where I stand and what I represent in this convoluted hip hop arena. Working with 2 Hungry Bros was interesting because they’re a force to be reckoned with. Their love for, and understanding of music helped push me in the right direction. They allowed me to be me and helped me achieve a certain freeness on every song.” Rumspringa drops September 10.
