Famed for his late eighties, early nineties remix and production work for Madonna and other major league pop stars, Pettibone's early origins lie in hip hop. Together with Arthur Baker he was behind Afrika Bambaata & The Jazzy Five's groundbreaking 'Jazzy Sensation'. He also pioneered the 'mastermixes' of Kiss FM Radio, introducing a new methodology by segueing records to build 'sequences', almost like movements in classical music. It was a parallel development to hip hop's scratching and DJ innovations, which were undoubtedly an ungoing influence. 1982-1983 saw Shep moving into another musical area, reviving the sounds of people like Loleatta Holloway, Rochelle Fleming and Jocely Brown to great success, which ensured his status as an in-demand mixer for large budget studio sessions.
In 1981, he gave Tony Humphries radio access on New York's Kiss FM, after hearing the latter's demo cassette.
So Here's A mix Of Shep Pettibone I found on my external HD. Not Sure what year this mix was but I'm thinking around 1992 or 1993. But Peep it out something to listen too. Enjoy---12inchjunkie
