5.0 out of 5 stars DJ RAP is BULLETPROOF!, May 17, 2005

I get really tickled when Drum and Bass is done right. "Done right" means it grooves me, it bothers me, it nags at me, it tells me something urban and something cultural. Drum and bass is an acquired taste like a rich brandy or tropical rum. It's got to have a heady, emotional groove.

DJ Rap's Bulletproof is the best example of Drum and Bass "done right" to come along so far this year. Cross genre manipulation can be a bit tricky, and although she's not the first to remix some landmark alter-genre tracks into Drum and Bass, Dieselboy most notably pulling such tracks together with his Dungeonmaster's Guide, some of the DJ Rap alt-genre remixes on this album are mind-blowing, gut-wrenching brilliance.

DJ Rap has remixed Ferry Corsten's "Indigo" into a Drum and Bass tune and pulls it off with a flare of vision and respect to the original piece, similar to the Ill Skillz Remix - Concord Dawn:Take Me Away. The underlying layer of the original track is still there at its finest audible presentation, with a Drum and Bass beat infusion that makes it unique all over again, but just as mesmerizing.

Actually, the entire album is delicious. Concord Dawn's - Morning Light is a gorgeous pick for the mix and she ends the album with the beautiful melodic track, entitled, appropriately enough, Beautiful Universe.

The album's namesake is track number one and Bulletproof has a cool, dancey beat that catches you indefinitely. It gets your attention and sets the pace for some fine expectations to come. You'll go about with it in your head for weeks.

Every track on this album is mastered to perfection. This is just a stunning return to form for this gorgeous DJ, considered by many to be the first lady of drum and bass. Her previous best material is upgraded by the work she has done here, as such tracks as "Beautiful Universe" prove. From start to finish, this is absolutely addictive, and for those looking to find a place to start listening to modern drum and bass, this album will do just fine.
