Various ‎– Ninja Tune XX: 20 Years Of Beats & Pieces

I think Ninja Tune have produced one of the best anniversary box sets ever produced by any record label. They didn't bother with a 'greatest hits of Ninja Tune' - instead, they undertook the ambitious task of having artists produce NEW material, and have existing Ninja Tune favourites remixed by label, and, non-label artists.

The end product is a very well designed, comprehensive package, that gives the music supporter a lot for their money - especially considering some of the ridiculous box-set compilations I've seen in the past.

Musically, there are some really amazing pieces here. In all honesty, I am not a fan of some of the material included, but this just makes the overall listening experience a nice variance for me.

Overall, for the box set design, retail price, and all the bundled goodies, I give this package a 5 / 5.

Musically, I'd give it a 3.5-4 / 5.

If you're fortunate to be able to get the box set, I do recommend it!

just listen to it

Mind Blowing!
There isn't really much more to say, and anyway, there is too much to review. But I'll try:
From the beginning, the box itself is just gorgeous, hours of reading pleasure and hours of excitement to come. The Music Takes You Up (in Mr. Scruffs words) from mind blowing scary sound capers, to bass heavy gut wrenching bowl ticklers, to more traditional ninja style downtempo lounge groove, you get gripped by the balls and sliced up like a ninja's salad, only to be cuddled and stroked my your stealth mummy.
If they carry on like this i will be cashing in my pension to get the Ninja Tune XL Suitcase Set

Post review or comment? With this tracklist and record company? Pcha, it's only waisting of time. Put your earphones on (or turn your aplifier) and let's have a PAAAARTYYYYYYYY!!!!
