Who on the mixtape blogsophere hasn't heard of
DJ Sav One? He's pretty well represented within the c-box and comments section of many blogs. Yet I haven't seen any mixes from him except now.
[it] has some slept on gems & tracks that were fairly new at the time the mix was made. It's a live mix, so enjoy it as is & appreciate some good music, scratching & mixing.

The Are takes the original samples used on A Tribe Called Quest's second album Midnight Marauders and reworks them into something that will leave many amazed.
I first heard of The Are last year via his production on the Niyat's Vector Prime mixtape (
HERE).
"The Walk" has to the one of 2008's best joints. He is pretty impressive when it comes to beats and
Manipulated Maruaders will definite make you a fan of his work. Add this instrumental album to your collection and be sure stop by his blog for new remixes and beats:

Although I'm not Buddhist and diasgree with many of it's philosophical teachings I have learned about from Buddhist philosophy and it has increased my spirituality. Learning and understanding other faith traditions expands your thought and forces you to clarify where you stand on issues. You may not always agree but examing other faiths will encourage one to think about things you probably wouldn't thought about before. In that spirit this short book on Ch'an (Zen) is nice jump start for those not aware of Zen Buddhist thought.
Ch’an or Zen is the outcome of meditation. There are two “right” or “highest” purposes of Ch’an. The first purpose is to achieve “Dhyana.” Dhyana is a combination of relaxation, concentration and calmness or tranquility. The second purpose is, using your very composed and tranquil mind, to observe clearly all the dharmas or phenomena externally and internally. As an outcome of Dhyana, you will be able to observe these phenomena very clearly because your “mental mirror” is very clear, for there are no more disturbances to veil it. Out of these observations will come Transcendental Wisdom, which in Sanskrit is called “Prajna.”
