DJ Thee-O and The Kandyman - Us & Them
Special thanks to Tef of CPU101 for hooking this one up.



Us & Them, recorded in 1992 under the name Hidden Threat Productions, was the first mixed tape from DJ Thee-O and The Kandyman.
I caught up with Thee-O a couple of weeks ago and he was kind enough to lend us pretty much the entire Biohazard catalog and some other goodies you won’t want to miss – so stay tuned! If you haven’t heard him play in a while you should check out this mix by Thee-O and Barry Weaver, recorded at Monday Night Social on Monday March 16th, 2009 at Nacional in Hollywood.
I was able to ID all but 3 of the tracks on the Thee-O side, but drew a blank with most of The Kandyman’s side. If you’re able to fill in any blanks please post them in the comments.

OMFG!!!!!
I’ve been looking for this for years!!!! We were friends with the Kandyman and he gave us a copy right around the time of Under the Kandyground(at La Casa), but the tape got lost. I messaged Thee-o but he was never able to find it for me. Thank you so much for this!!!!!!!!!
Now all I need is that elusive Aldo Bender Happy Wednesdays tape and my replacement of all my old tapes is complete. I will help with IDs over the next few days. Thanks again. Made my day.
