: :Deep Concentration reinforces what you fundamentally love about hip-hop and then proceeds to flip your brain into hyperspace with some of the more progressive DJ compositions from some of the most respected turntablists around. West Coast DJ Cut Chemist (of Jurassic 5 and Ozomatli) reaches extra deep into the archives to build 'Lesson 6,' while DJs Swingsett and Wally find a hook in a loop of dripping water for the trippy 'Centaurius Space Bass.' Hip-hop purists will appreciate the X-Ecutioners' assault 'A Turntable Experience' and the only MC cut, 'Say What,' by the lyrical marvels Latyrx. Some of the routines on ... |

Birdy Nam Nam(more) »rank: 156671by: Birdy Nam Nam
:Album Description:Alternately gloomy or funky, shot through with electronic acids and methodical cuts, the Birdy Nam Nam sound dispenses with plucking a guitar or crafting a chord on a Rhodes. Pushing back the limits of that raw material, these merciless crate-diggers deliver considered music, a jewel of vinyl composition that owes as much to DJ Shadow as to Sun Ra, as much to the electronic experts of the 1990s as to the 1980s rap producers. Birdy Nam Nam no longer play records, they play music. You can get off on Birdy Nam Nam without knowing that all the music you hear ... |

Bangzilla(more) »rank: 22849by: Mix Master Mike
:Album Description:Bangzilla, is nothing short of title reference. It's Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla. Mike vs. MechaMike. Action packed, kick drums to the chest, hard bass for the booty, and all the scratchin' is bound to put a hurtin' on them. If you can't get a feel for that, pop it in your car CD player and see how fast your speedometer moves. The uptempo beats bang their way through Mike's sonic escapade. Piece the narratives together for story time in your mind. It's an adventure Alice in Wonderland couldn't mess with. Protect your neck. The battle is on. |

No Hesitation(more) »rank: 177397by: El Stew
:Album Description:1999 debut by avante supergroup featuring Buckethead, Eddie Def, Brain, DJ Disk and DJ Extraked. 18 tracks. :El Stew are a motley assortment: there's Brain, the drummer from Primus; DJ Disk, a.k.a. the Shigger Fragger, the godfather of the Invisibl Skratch Piklz; twisted guitarist Buckethead--who wears a chicken bucket atop his noggin whenever he appears onstage; Eddie Def of the Space Travelers (formerly the Scratch Hamsters); and producer Extrakd. It's an assemblage you might not expect to work, and their music is almost unclassifiable--except to say that it makes for a hell of an interesting listen. The album isn't a ... |

Endtroducing.....(more) »rank: 31928by: DJ Shadow
:Album Description:DJ Shadow, a.k.a. Josh Davis, could be credited with bringing newfound introspection to the gloating sounds of hip-hop. Condensed with urban oscillations and scatological beats, Endtroducing shutters with eclectic samples and aural montages that reach beyond the constraints of hip-hop style. Enhancing the mix with fundamentals of rock, soul, funk, ambient, and jazz, the modern fusions fail to go unnoticed, even by the casual listener. While most of the tracks are compiled by layering samples from vinyl treasures found in used-record bins, the production quality of the mosaic is unmatched. Darkened melodies carry throughout the album with its eye on ... |

:Album Description:DJ KENTARO's new record features guest turns from THE PHARCYDE, FAT JON, NEW FLESH, LITTLE TEMPO, HIFANA and all the members of SPANK ROCK. 'Enter' runs from the funk of 'Free' to the dubby downtempo soul of 'Tasogare Highway', through the drum and bass attack of 'Rainy Day,' the live reggae feel of 'Handmade Gift,' the squelching dance aesthetic of 'Space Jungle,' on into the tribal space-jazz of 'Harvest Dance,' the epic turntable cut-up of 'One Hand Blizzard' and, finally, the cosmic hip hop of 'Let It Go'. It's not that he can't scratch the hell out of a piece ... |

The World Famous Beat Junkies, Vol. 2(more) »rank: 165411by: The Beat Junkies
: :Though they may lack the flash of turntablist crews such as the X-ecutioners and Invisibl Skratch Piklz, L.A.'s largely nebulous Beat Junkies DJ collective (the 1997 International Turntable Federation champions) are truly a force to be reckoned with. This two-disc mix mainly highlights the cutting and spinning of original crew member Rhettmatic, though fellow Junkies Melo-D, Babu, and J-Rocc make key cameos as well. While Volume 2 lacks the marquee rap hit makers and that higher-profile mix tapes offer, it more than makes up for any star-power deficiencies with a one-two punch of topnotch mixing and an excellent cast of indie ... |
