5.0 out of 5 stars A Classic....., June 13, 2004

Although a classic of which music genre is anyone's guess. Trip hop prehaps? There so much depth to this album it boggles the mind. I purchased this album over seven years ago when I was just starting to get into DJ Shadow. If you are a fan of Shadow you need this album. This is also what I would call a "bridge" album because the artists on it are tied to so many different music scenes....I guess that's mostly because of Cut Chemist. This is a definate "must" for anyone that enjoys turntable artistry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolute Masterpiece, June 10, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Deep Concentration: The Future of Experimental Hip Hop (Audio CD)

You get a bit of every style in this package. The skillz amaze, but your butt still moves.

The content alternates where the A sides (2LP in my case), are butt shakin' turntablist rave-ups and the B's are more ambient, jazzy, smoove stuff.

Old, but good. A diverse and excellent mix. worth owning if you are a fan of vintage electronica, hip-hop, mashups, etc.
