This review is from: Very Best of Electro Hip Hop Collection (Audio CD)

I've bought dozens of "street jamz" and "diggin' the crates" but take a brit to properly compile a set that truly has all of the hits that defined the hip hop scene in the mid-80's. Yes, you're probably tired of Rockit by Herbie Hancock, but isn't it definitive? Same with Planet Rock by AB&SSF? Also includes a few later defining hits like Run DMC "It's like that". Best about this set: the only CD as far as I can tell with Amityville by Lovebug Starski, Rock Steady Crew eponymous cut, and Malcolm X "No Sell Out". Potential problem if you want to select out just a few like these three - it's a mix, otoh with only a few beats overlap.

An outstanding collection. 'Nuff said.
But the engineer responsible for setting the digital recording level should be forced to listen to this disc every day for all eternity. A travesty.
(if that means nothing to you, the translation is: it sounds pretty awful)
