Sounds & Revolution

From the back catalogue of UK rap mag HHC, there have been a great number of decent freebies and CDs they gave away (before the magazine went downhill rapidly in quality then gave up entirely), and this is just one of them.

US record label Nature Sounds did and still does boast a great roster of talent from Masta Killa to Tragedy Khadafi to Vordul Mega of Cannibal Ox. This compilation is a showcase of their roster from the inception of their label and it has hits from subsequently great releases.

One of my favourite DJs, DJ Revolution, does a great job on the cuts and mixes, with his inimitable scratch sound prevalent throughout, and it gives the album a great continuity and feel.

Enjoy the show.
