- Mix CD
If nothing else, the sheer amount of time and effort that went into making this mix album has to be admired. The liner notes describe a year of scouring second-hand shops, re-organising records to match up their BPMs and splicing them together. The end result, it has to be said, is pretty awesome.
At the heart of this record is a joyous, insane variety – it’s got Dr. Dre rubbing shoulders with The Belle Stars’ ‘Clapping Song’ and INXS and Queen in an embrace with the Ghostbusters theme tune. DJ esSDee has cherry-picked highlights from the long, proud history of hip-hop (classic Dre, Arrested Development, Sugarhill Gang, Busta Rhymes) and mixed in some instantly recognisable snippets from the worlds of rock and roll, indie pop and soul. How about Salt ‘n’ Pepa rapping over ‘Sweet Home Alabama’ or Lou Reed’s ‘Walk On The Wild Side’ vocal imposed on 10cc’s ‘Dreadlock Holiday’ eh? Cynics might say it panders to our lowest musical instincts but I would argue that it’s a treasure trove of happy nostalgia for anyone who grew up in the Eighties or Nineties and as such it’s just about the greatest party soundtrack ever made. Every home should have one.
