When my good friend DJ Buttafingaz told me he was sending this to me I thought he must be getting the year wrong. Certainly DJ Screw didn't invent his "Chopped and Screwed" technique till at least 10 years later. But what he's done here is absolutely brilliant, taking those opiated cough syrup influenced mixing techniques, and applying them to the music of 1982 (kind of a seminal music year for me, dunno about you guys). It's a fun listen. Bust out the Tussin.

Cool. I did some sets I called 'screw wave' where I slowed down 'Cities in Dust' and 'Genius of Love' and such. You aint lived til you hear the qualude goodness of Devo doing 'Working in a Coal Mine' at funeral speed.
BTW slowed down tapes (like the twist) started in Tampa way before Houston. Magic Mike was the man and let nobody say otherwise.
