Lil' Tony* / Boola (2) - Basement Tracks EP Review by Mark_Anthony Feb 07, 2009
As a vinyl collector/dj you become wiser as your collection grows. I'm willing to bet that if you look back on your first dozen vinyl purchases you'll find a bunch of records that you regret buying. As your collection grows you evolve and hone your selection process to prevent yourself from buying records that you won't care about 6 months later. Tracks that were hot at the time of their release but quickly lose their luster when whatever the "in" sound shifts towards some other easily marketable fad. Really the only way to avoid making such purchases is to seek out records that are made with raw creativity and soul. Records that dont really fit into a particular genre or have gimmicky sounds. Records that, if you didnt know the release date, you would have no way of knowing if this was made now or 15 years ago. Then you find a record like this Lil Tony/Boola release. Complete head noddin body jacking filth on both sides. It is house music in the purest form!

Lil' Tony* / Boola (2) - Basement Tracks EP Review by ijustspeak Nov 17, 2008
Really diggin' this EP.
3 tracks with an edge, not to original but by no means, no bullshit either. Lil' Tony dusts of the plankboards with some nasty bass. Is just a thump along track with some tribaly beats but works well. The dub alters the B-line a bit and keeps it more on the drum side. Dubby but still infectious.
But i think DJ Boola's tracks keeps this EP strong. Really fat beats with some weird creakin' noises. Not much going on but saves itself on the groove alone.
Great EP, could offer a bit more in terms of variety but it settles enough for me. Proper basement fun.
