DWG006 - TDS MOB - 'THE DOPE COMMITTEE E.P.' (sticker sleeve / limited to 350 copies)

Containing 3 previously unreleased TDS Mob tracks, together with instrumentals, taken from the original reels, baked and re-mastered for optimum audio quality.

Previously Unreleased Ltd Press

DWG007 - TDS MOB - 'THE BOSTON CLASSICS E.P.' (picture cover / general release)

Four previously released golden era nuggets from Boston's finest, TDS Mob... taken from the original reels, baked and remastered for optimum audio quality. As if that isn't enough, we've thrown in some audio intros from recently-discovered live footage of the crew and also knocked up our first picture sleeve in a instantly-recognisable TDS style. Throw in the previously unreleased acappellas for 'Dope for the Folks' and 'Crushin Em' and you've got a great slab of wax at a very affordable price.

As it says an EP of Classics!

DWGCD002 - TDS MOB - 'TREACHEROUS, DEVASTATING, SUPREME' (CD+DVD anthology / general release)

We've faced some pretty heavy criticism from the MP3 generation over the years for our high priced vinyl releases so now it's time to put up or shut up as, for the first time, we will be making a DWG release available in digital format in this incredible package. The CD features all 7 studio recorded TDS cuts in their remastered glory, but that's just for starters. We were given full access to Mark Cohen's extensive stash of TDS paraphernalia and we unearthed some real gems for you. For starters we have both videos from the "What's This World..." 12" which have pretty much remained unseen until now (other than a few local Boston airings back in the day). On top of that we also have the live video footage from two TDS shows in all its lo-fi glory, plus a great selection of vintage TDS press shots and concert flyers. We round the package off with full multi-track acapellas for 6 of the 7 TDS tracks for your remixing pleasure.

CD/DVD Combo with Video's and Acapella's

Congratulations are in order to DJ Switch (not the Funkbox one) who won the DMC World Supremacy Battle at the weekend (that makes him World Supremacy Champion, not World Champion as some people have been saying) so props to him!
