Strange Games and Things is mixed by Dj Spinna and you get a total of three c.d's all together.
The First disc is mixed by spinna and is a mixture of laid back grooves linked between 70's soul, the 80's rare groove revival, and 90's R&B and hip-hop, and is perfect for a chilled laid back evening listening to a few tunes.
The other two disc's are also very funky and are along the same lines but are un-mixed ...in particular is the packaging, its a card board case with 3 slide out cases for the c.d's which are brightly coloured, stand out and make a change from the usual plastic cases, which break very easily.
If you already like this type of music or are interested in hearing more check out www.tunes.co.uk which is full of bbe labels and funky vibes.

I have a very wide taste in music and will listen to most things within reason! ie. No Boybands, Girl power or rubbish like that. I purchased this c.d from a shop called Carbon, which is in Urban Outfitters,Templebar, Dublin, and am I glad I did.
If you are unaware of BBE its a fantastic record label, which stands for Barely Breaking Even, in London. If you do know it then you'll know the kind of stuff they put together. Check out there website for a better idea at www.bbemusic.com (although not the best site in the world)
