Editorial Review: Description: Growing up in Bristol, England, Portishead's DJ Andy Smith was heavily influenced by hip- hop, funk, soul and rock. It's no wonder that his debut album, THE DOCUMENT, is a collection of all those styles and more in a seamless, 46-minute mega-mix. Songs from The Jungle Brothers ("How Ya Want It"), Grandmaster Flash ("The Adventures of Grand Master Flash On The Wheels of Steel"), and Jeru The Damaja ("Come Clean") provide the hip-hop flavour. Tom Jones ("Looking out My Window"), Spencer Davis Group ("I'm a Man") and The James Gang's ("Funk#49") take you back to a bygone era, the rockin' 70's. Barry White and the Love Unlimited Orchestra ("Can't Seem to Find Him") and Marvin Gaye ("T Plays It Cool") transplant you into the soul sounds of yesteryear. THE DOCUMENT is sprinkled with textures and sounds of numerous eras and styles, and Smith brings them effortlessly together to create a harmonious blend of music, void of a genre-specific label. Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating: - a fantastically funky recordThis record starts off slow with a few laid back rap tracks, but soon reaches a level of cool funk which it doesn't let up till the end of the disc. Hip hop and techno tracks are mixed seemlessly with older gems like Tom Jones and Barry White to produce one amazingly cool album. The reason I was searching for Andy smith was to see if he'd made another album like this, cause I've had this one 3 years and it's one of my favorite albums. Rating: - the best mix disc i have ever heard-this is a must purchase for any lover of hip hop, funk and soul, mr smith mixes each track effortlessly.Jeru flowing into the meters...blinding!! and you never heard Tom Jones sounding so cool( well i havent any way )Peggy Lee and S L Troopers back to back , can it get better? just look at the track listing !!buy it , buy it , buy it. |
