Theo Parrish Ugets II (R&B, Funk, Soul, House)

Theo Parrish is a Detroit legend who put out a series of edits on vinyl simply labeled Uget (ugly edit) that were lofi and interesting. I love what he's doing here and wish more editors would use this quick-and-dirty style. If I were to guess what's going on or wanted to construct an edit in this style myself, I'd start with original vinyl. After identifying the breaks and interesting bits that I'd want to loop, I'd record a bunch of needle drops into a simple DAW like Audacity then move them around and copy-n-paste them until I had a 10-minute banger like “Party Going On”. Don't bother quantizing anything, and make sure the record needle is old and the vinyl dusty. Chef's kiss.
