Rated 5/5
Review by chadallen Sep 11, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)
I own most of DJ Shadow's material from "Endtroducing" onwards, but it wasn't until very recently that I obtained this CD, and I have to say, if you liked "Entroducing" (I don't know anyone that doesn't!) then definately get this, because it is superb material. The whole album is absolutely spot on.
Review by subsoul Aug 17, 2003
this is the album that made me get turn tables. in/flux is the best down tempo tune ever. the samples applied on this album make it breath taking to listen to. 'organ doner', 'in/flux', and 'what does your soul look like?' parts 1-4, are all worth the buy.
Review by Vezatron Apr 29, 2002
The standout is the "organ grinder" mix. It is a lot more fun than the "Endtroducing..." version. This album is pretty slick on the whole, as it really shows the creative depth of DJ shadow.
