4.0 out of 5 starsVery good, but you better like hip-hop
By A Customer on October 4, 2000
Format: Audio CD
Good hip-hop mix, with some nice old school jams that you probably haven't heard in a long time, as well as some nice and occasionally very funky instrumental passages and rare hip-hop grooves mixed in. However, DON'T make the mistake of assuming that because you liked Carboot Soul that you'll like this. This is NOT for the most part a trip-hop album. If you are looking for chillout music, this isn't for you (get Thievery Corporation instead). If you liked the Terranova or Stereo MC's DJ Kicks albums, then you'll like this too.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreen pleasure!!!
By Rafael Cova on May 18, 2003
Format: Audio CD
The British DJ / Producer George Evelyn, aka DJ Ease, aka NIGHTMARES ON WAX, despite his relative lack of years, has for more than a decade already numbered among the most visionary musicians on the island. He has never left his hometown of Leeds since he was born, but his sound is nonetheless universal and his recordings for the English label Warp have frequently set new trends. Even his first single, "Dextrous", found its way into the English Top 75 and his subsequent releases are still today regarded as prototypes for the downbeat genre. The following album, "Word of Science", with its combination of soulful bleeps and clonks, underscored his creative potential, but even so it was a full 6 years before he released his classic, "Smoker's Delight" (1995), one of the milestone records of the nineties.
Opening with his trademark song, "Nights Interlude", this record has played itself into innumerable hearts, record collections and annual charts, has been a dope beat classic ever since its release and has yet to lose any of its allure. His album, "Carboot Soul" (1999), as well as his collaborations with De La Soul, O.C. and Corinna Joseph, seamlessly picked up where the success of their predecessor left off and charted all over Europe. The album "Mind Elevation" 2002 release is the fourth album, is another welcome hit of chilled beats, entrancing melodies and soothing soul-drenched vocals. While persevering with the use of live instrumentation, Evelyn--a one-time judge of Amsterdam's High Times Cannabis Cup--has fortunately not sacrificed any of the dreamy ambience and looped samples that made 1995's Smokers Delight such essential post-club listening.Read more ›

2.0 out of 5 starsNot bad, not great
By Scott Woods on October 24, 2001
Format: Audio CD
The "DJ Kicks" compilation series has had some realy, really great CDs come out of it, most notably the mixes by Giles Peterson and Kemistry & Storm. They've been stylistically very unique and wide, with really good songs strung together regardless of the style. This one by N.O.W. isn't one of the best ones, but it's not bad. It's a great hip-hop disc minus the rapping, so if you're looking for hip-hop mood music sans vocals (for the MOST part), this is it. I thought it might be a little more moody - more in the vein of say, early DJ Cam - but it's beats are very traditional hip-hop.
The soundtrack for bombing subway cars and school buildings with spray paint, but not as underground in parts as you may like if you're a hip-hop head.

4.0 out of 5 starsme like it
By A Customer on January 27, 2003
Format: Audio CD
In a sense, comparing any of the DJ Kicks releases to another in the series is like, you guessed it, apples and oranges. Perhaps not as "fluid" as some in the series (a la K&D) the NOW set does a great job at setting a goal and getting there in style.
A good mix of instrumental hip-hop, with a few choice MC tracks blended in, DJ Ease creates a streetwise blend that's great for chilling, driving, partying, styling, mackin', whatever. It also has a legit raw feel that's not too over-produced.
DJ Kicks: For spectacular trip-hop choose K&D. For lounge choose Thievery (despite a lack of mixing talent). For funky British underground, choose Stereo MCs (again, poor mixing). For funky, trippy hip-hop, this is it.
Just what I needed when I got it.

5.0 out of 5 starsMix beats rythym happens over lucious groove
By Spyscience on October 19, 2000
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
This Cd is the first of Nightmares on Wax I have listened to. I am a big fan of the K7 DJ Kicks albums and have used many of them to check out an artist for the first time. This may be silly but it is a style that has moved me to love many of the artists on the Kicks. I feel that this album portrays a level of even mix for the artist. It throughs a bit of every part of him into it. Justly it is noted that some of his work is more appreciated, but as well it is noted that this album containes two tracks of his never released, and as well a track by Kenny Dope that has never been released. That right there is a sell for me due to the fact that unreleased means it didn't fit somewhere else and it does here therefore making this a style of album that is fresh and new for this artist. Call it crazy, but I found this album to be riddled with talent and raw mixing that took me to a level of appreciation that is worthy of giving it a shout out.

5.0 out of 5 starsKicks some serious hip-hop arse.
By Ed H. on October 31, 2000
Format: Audio CD
I don't know what that guy was off about, but this is some really sick hip-hop rhythms, and totally old school. Excellent vibe that kicks and kicks.

5.0 out of 5 starsAn underated gem.
By Gregory Gross on January 23, 2005
Format: Audio CD
I don't know what's not to like about this mix since it contains some hard to find classics. DJ Premier's DITC, Kenny "dope" Gonzales, OC with NOW, Carrena with Jimi Ease. Yes there is some cheese, one tune which doesn't ruin the listening expierence at all. I will say that some of this music is old school and I was surprised to hear some of it again, but that was one of the nice surprises on this very underated dj mix, from NOW.

4 Solid stars. Actually, there is one 5 star song on this album that makes the whole thing worth it. Check out the record, it is unmixed so you get the complete songs.
