Original DJ - U-Roy

Advantages: Good selection of tracks
Disadvantages: None

...Mauro Picotto's 'The Lizard Man', out on the Nukleuz label, in my opinion is a great album from the Superstar DJ. There are 32 tracks over 2 CDs which include the crowd pleasing tracks Iguana and the Komodo, which has recently entered the UK charts at no 13. You'll find this album to contain heavy bass and uplifting and refreshing breaks. The tracklisting is as follows: CD1: Save a Soul - Picotto The Dolphin - Gee Moore The Vision - Mario Piu Iguana - Picotto Make A Dream - Bismark Hypnobounce - Karin De Ponti Oasis - YOMC Something About U - The Act See The Light - DJ Jam X & De Leon Sparkless - DJ Tiesto Sturn Und Drang - Megamind I Need Ur Loving - Marc Et Claude (Flashback Mix) Tuareg - Ricky Le Roy Imagine - Ricky Le Roy Sweet Dream - CRW Ultimahora Ibiza - Picotto Techno Harmony - Mario Piu CD2: Running - Tyreli Corp Komodo...

...After hearing a DJ Shadow track on a bomb hip-hop cmpilation I hit Napster like a man on a misson! Entroducin is DJ Shadow's 1996 release. I will admit I am no expert on DJ Shadow but hs music is invigorating, original and whats more relaxing! This is a pure smokers album, if u like smokin dope and just kicking back then this is the album to do it too. Strangely reminisint of Dope On Plastic compilation, although D&B, this DJ Shadow stuff has the most relaxing effect of any Trip Hop I have ever heard! Ste/Long Stem is the most amazin track I have heard ever. Its got a lovely synth pattern at the beginning, combined with a very hauntin guitar riff - then out of nowhere a hard rock beat comes in from nowhere, the kind of thing u would find on a Limp Bizkit album! Check it out man! Go out and get this album, its got to be the best... Read review

Advantages: Lots of mixed tracks - and interesting listen
Disadvantages: Plain cover, no lyrics in booklet

...there is no lyrics listings which is always good if you want to pinch a song or two for a karoke or if you just want to 'look cool' singing in the office - don't let anyone know i said that because its not me screaching in the copy room (you have no proof mmwahahahaha). Tracks: Overall Disc 1 is my favourite of the two discs as has the faster and more catchy tunes on. The listings for disc one are: 1. Earth Wind & Fire - Lets Groove, 2. George Morel - Morel's Groove, 3. The Ant'ill Mob - Burning, 4. Big Bird - Flava, 5. Reel 2 Reel - I like To Move It, 6. Tina Moore - Never Gonna Let U Know, 7. Missy - Lick Shots, 8. Tables Have Turned - Tables have turned , 9. Pretty Boys - Brass Pocket, 10. Ice Rider - Riddim Track , 11. Mr Reds - Closer, 12. Roy Davis Jnr - Gabrielle, 13. Pretty Boys - Sexy Boy, 14. Heartless Crew - Heartless Theme, 15. Urban Myths... Read review
