Steve Stein aka Steinski, is a famed soundmasher, DJ, record collector and advertising writer. He recombined music sifted through everything from funk and soul to film and found sound to help sequence the genes of sample-based hip-hop, which has since become ground zero for copyfight headaches. The most popular of Steinski's productions are his three hip-hop "lessons," which are streamed below. They have gone on to influence everyone from DJ Shadow and Girl Talk to Missy Elliott.

Illegal Art has now complied a 23 years of his mixes in a Retrospective, "What Does it All Mean"
