Norman Cook - DJ Mega-Mix Vol. 1

This record was really well ahead of it's time! This was released when Norman Cook (Fatboy Slim), was still in Indie group The Housemartins, and this influenced hundreds of turntablist cut-cup records (such as Coldut's Beats + Pieces).

The reason this never got released was due to the heavy amount of samples in it (dialogue from Doctor Who, Batman, The Jungle Book, and lots of familiar bronx breaks samples), and got bootlegged to death (under the name of Norman Housemartin!).

On to the record itself. In my ears, the main part sounds a heck of a lot like the Inspector Gadget theme, and Norm incorporates loops of him doing some turntablism (a thing that he almost dosen't do nowerdays), and the other side features the same track, but with Norm himself rapping (badly) with future Beats International member, MC Wildski!

Overall, if anyone can find it, it's definatly worth it as this (along with Double Dee and Steinski's Lesson's series), is one of the most influential cut and paste records ever.

This is the absolutely first record produced by Norman Cook. In that time (1986) he was still member of 80's pop-combo 'The Housemartins'. It didn't get released officially because of the amount of samples in it.
In spite of that the rest of the Housemartins demanded that Norman should distance himself from the track as it undermined the band's own image and ideology.
