Stick to what you know...
The problem is, I had already heard the fantastic "Brainfreeze" and "Product Placement" by DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist, not to mention a couple of DJ Yoda's "How to Cut Paste" albums. br / br /Those guys really know how to mix their records - Liam Howlett doesn't. br / br /The scratching is nothing special and the blending (and choice) of tracks at times seems random. There are some good moments in the first two CD tracks, but that's largely due to the songs themselves and little to do with the mixing. The rest of the album is very mediocre.

Phat, Dope, Hectic, Eclectic!
If you're into hip-hop,or breakbeat in general,then you need a copy of this. If you're into cut n paste mixes and eclectic mash-ups, then you also need this. Whatever you may think of Mr. Howlett, he certainly has very good taste in music and displays that to the fullest here. There are some tracks that I've come to love that I never even heard 'til I purchased this mix. The mixing is tight, but stays quick, rough and raw as the dope beats come thick and fast. Highlights for me are; KRS-One and Tim Dog, Sex Pistols, Bomb the Bass, Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy, Hijack and The Charlatans to name just a few. If you like the tracklist but don't own the cd then what the f*** are you waiting for?? If you've never heard of any of the featured artists but are open-minded then get on this.....you won't regrtet it!!

fine underated mix
This is a well considered and brilliantly mixed recording.brOf course it's not meant to be on a par with the Prodigy's original works and shouldn't be compared to them. This is Liam pulling out all the stops and forming a cohesive string of songs from his record collection. The mixing of seemingly disparate tunes is a little insight into the inspirations and influences of one of the great electronic/rhythmical artists of the last two decades. A huge range displaying Liam's eclectic tastes. Pretty damn good too. Check out the opener of track 3. The Mexican by Babe Ruth. Great Song.

An Excellent mix of some Great classics
When i first heard the reviews for this album (as a Prodigy fan)I thought i'd avoid it. Then i came across it by accident and was well impressed! Its just a cool mix of some old classics and some unknowns mixed to a great hiphop, funk style - but far away from their usual style! This album is a must buy - even if its just to guess the tracks.
