The College Dropout

CD-Charts > Music > Bestsellers
by: Kanye West

Release Date March 15, 2004
This album has rightly been lauded by just about everyone. It's an incredibly clever and interesting piece of work. The tracks are varied in their feel and attitude, from "thuggish" to thoughtful and reflective. If anything the problem is that West is trying too hard to be all things to all people. He's a thoughtful, reflective soul who believes in Jesus and disapproves of drug use (in principle) but who is also happy to hand out beat-downs, steal and deal drugs (or to do whatever he has to "to get by"). Most rappers are guilty of trying to take the moral high ground while also maintaining their street cred by acting like delinquents, but with many rappers (e.g. Tupac) this seems to be a genuine contradiction (or perhaps a paradox if you ...

London Zoo

CD-Charts > Music > Bestsellers
by: The Bug

Release Date July 07, 2008
At first I was so dubious about this, I wasnt sure I would like its 'dubby' feel or its Dancehall-Step as I was more interested in a sub-bass dubstep / grime fest. But this release has made me mature and avoid grimey angry litte brats!

Also, what really blew my mind was the connection to ICE, GOD, Techno Animal and Dalek! Brilliant!

Each song on this album is a winner, individual and so diverse and progressive. Considering I got into this genre via getting bored of low-end sonic doom (Sunn, Earth, Melvins)...I cant wait to get more of it!

SKENG!

Mcmxc Ad

CD-Charts > Music > Bestsellers
by: Enigma

Release Date November 04, 1991
Have just found this CD in my loft after being lost during the last house move. So happy to see it i nearly cried. Like being reunited with a long lost friend. Agree with the reviewers here (not Amazon)- this album can be many things to many people so long as you are not offended by the mix of hymns and sensual (at times sexual) beat / sounds. The work can function as background music while you work or socialise; or alternatively be the backdrop to chilling or meditating. It even gives the HiFi a work out at the same time!

Blue Lines

CD-Charts > Music > Bestsellers
by: Massive Attack

Release Date June 01, 1991
Should i ever be asked to name the album i consider to be the most influential in the history of music( given that i have,nt heard every album in the history of music) i would plump for Massive Attacks 1991 debut album Blue Lines. Trip hop years before the term became synonymous with ....well anything , it triggered a shift in dance and electronic music to what the music critic Simon Reynolds called "a more meditational sound " running ( or maybe loping ) at lower tempo,s .
The band merged black music influences like hip -hop , reggae and soul but allied them to the more ambitious prog aspects of bands like Pink Floyd and King Crimson( without the middle class patina) and the savvy dub tones of Public Image. The music is infused with an empirical ... Read More:

St. Elsewhere

CD-Charts > Music > Bestsellers
by: Gnarls Barkley

Release Date April 24, 2006
Terrific energy, honesty, depth and meaning.
Will not appeal to those who expect more of the same (with respect to the signature track) or who are threatened by musical freedom of expression, which is evident here in many eclectic forms.

Original Pirate Material

CD-Charts > Music > Bestsellers
by: Streets

Release Date March 25, 2002
A record that managed to do what no other "urban" garage album had managed before; combine deep bass-driven hooks, intelligent lyrics and sublime melodies. "From Mile End to Ealing ...Brixton to Bounds Green" there wasn't a person I knew living in London 6 years ago whose head wasn't turned by this album. Stories of sitting in cafes debating whether to call the girl you'd met the night before, doing the same drugs you'd done 10 years ago, bemoaning the lack of ambition in the UK music scene, this was a record that spoke to us, shared our experiences and spat them out in a more eloquent way than we thought possible. Turn the Page is the best opening track off a debut album since the Doors' Break on Through, a dark yet joyful, mesmerising statement of intent; "I'm 45th ... Read More:

Bought this for my six year old´s birthday and she loves it. The cd was fab at her party and the dvd of the dance moves has kept her amused for hours! She is getting quite good at the dances now - her dad still needs to practice though! Really good value for money.

Music for the Jilted Generation

CD-Charts > Music > Bestsellers
by: The Prodigy

Release Date July 04, 1994
Quite simply put... this album is in classic territory and is still relevant in 2008. Much of it live at T in the Park in 199.. something was my introduction to how live music should sound! Pioneering. If you are the new Jilted Generation get out there and buy it, you won't regret it!
