A collection of Shadow's work spanning from 1990 to 1992
focuses on Shadow’s first steps into full-fledged production.
Classics like Eric B and Rakim’s “Let The Rhythm Hit ‘Em”
and Jungle Brothers’ “Jimbrowski”
are given the full cut-and-paste treatment,
all performed with turntables
and a multi-track cassette recorder; no samplers or computers are used.
Included in this volume are tracks from
the infamous “Reconstruction” tapes which led to Shadow’s first big breaks into the broader hip-hop scene ...
And then there’s the megamixes!
On a scale of 1 - 5 on Must Have
I give it a 5.
Notice how there are three different colored album covers.
These were mostly sold as artist prints on various websites
if you were lucky enough to snag
one when the album came out pre-sale.
The whole album bundle comes with 2 t - shirts sticking with the 4 -track theme.
Overall, the albums are amazingly mixed together for
for radio 106.1 KMEL FM serving San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose.
Bringing old break beats blended with your favorite underground hip hop acapellas.
It's a mash - up hip hop album before they ever did mash - ups really.
And if they were, they aren't nearly as smooth as this one.
Eat your heart out DJ Clue!
Sorry Vinyl friends,
this one's only available on CD or MP3.
