Xen Cuts

Search: Give It Up - Coldcut
by: Various Artists

Release Date January 01, 2000
I own the vinyl(s) version of this, after buying it off my mate for a complete bargain (somehow). I got it home straight away and slammed it on the turntable and man it blew my head off. it has some really really awsome hip hop tracks and psycodelic breaks and beats. If you like your hiphop/beats you'll love this. i would defo recommend it to the hip hop heads out there, its a great compilation which consists of hours and hours of good quality music.

DJ Kentaro On The Wheels Of Solid Steel [CD + DVD]

Search: Give It Up - Coldcut
by: DJ Kentaro

Release Date September 05, 2005
This is an average mix from the 2002 DMC world champ, which has been let down by what I think is poor track selection. His scratching is superb, but a lot of the stuff seems to be average Ninja Tune tracks which, compared with other mix CDs, is no bad thing because of the genral high quality of Ninja artists. However, Kentaro seems to have picked a number of middle-of-the-road tracks which dont stick in the mind after listening.

In conclusion: Not bad for a bit of lounge-esque music, but there are a lot better Ninja mixes available. Check out DJ Krush's CD in the Cold Krush Cuts mix for great track selection and scratching.

This is a three disc effort showing the talent hidden within the Ninja Tune stable ... the blurb above says this is a 3 CD set, we get given 2 CDs worth of tracklisting here, handy. Look at the other Xen Cuts on offer here on Amazon though to see the FULL tracklising. This looks like the option to go for though since its about £6 cheaper! And what quality you get with the quantity too! The sheer volume of fantastic tracks on this collection makes it a must buy for fans of downtempo and hip hop. Its by far the best Ninja Tune compilation to date.

Far too many tracks to go into in detail in a review here but those who know their Ninja Tune will be right at home with offerings from Funki Porchini, Kid Koala, Coldcut (label bosses of ... Read More:
