How to kill the DJ? Put this on!, 5 April 2005
This album is, frankly, superb. CD 1, on first listen, can seem a bit daunting. So much music to explore! It can be a little overwhelming because there is so much going on.But then you get into it, and its fantastic. The record collections these guys have must be amazing. Soft Cell, Gang of Four, Quarks, Joubert Singers, the Cramps, the Rapture, Banbarra, Langley Schools Music Project and many many more jostle for position, all seamed together by sleazy rhythm and dirty funk. If you like 2manyDJs, you'll love this. CD 2 shows the tracks they couldn't leave out, and again, there is not a bad one on here. The essential 'Some Velvet Morning' by Lee Hazelwood and Nancy Sinatra is the pinnacle, but tracks by Arthur Russell, Nouvelle Vague, Sun City Girls, The Creepers and the Only Ones are also stand outs. But this albums full of them. Once you've heard them, you'll wonder how you lived without them! If your'e a music fan, I urge you to buy this. You'll not make a better purchase all year.
