Psychofluid Vol.3 (Compiled By DJ Toltek) - Various Artists

Advantages: A few scarface film samples
Disadvantages: Nearly the whole thing

...Many people have been influenced by the scarface film and the rap genre has especially referenced to it man songs. This is now an official compilation of songs with money, power and respect themes. as you would imagine, all are rap.

None appear in the film but there are samples and dialouge used from the picture. Tracks Its Mine - Mobb Deep & Nas.

Advantages: Fast paced, energetic
Disadvantages: Some tracks boring, repetitive

...I bought this compilation after my boyfriend downloaded some of its tracks from the internet. I enjoyed the tracks that I had listened to very much and at £5 it was a bargain! Especially as there are 56 tracks, which works out at about 11p per track. The compliation has three discs; CD1 mixed by Stu Allan; CD2 mixed by DJ Seduction and CD3 is a mix of bootlegs. Some of the artists included are: Sy & Unknown, Darren Styles and DJ Stormtrooper. The CD design is typical of its genre; a scantily clad raver girl. I certainly wouldn't buy the CD based on its cover design as I do not particularly enjoy looking at it! The track list is as follows: 1. With Every Heartbeat - Visa 2. Weekend (Never Never) - Al Storm 3. Tonight - Darwin & Alison Wade 4. Holding On 4 U - Visa 5. Don't Go - Long, Robbie & Stormtrooper/Kristy 6... Read review
