Customer Reviews
Awesome Turntables - Not for scratch haters
It is a quality composition but not for those who do not appreciate turntablism. The selected tracks really do stink of 80's nostalgia, but Yoda rips them up into something new and funky.
Definitely a CD that I am always sticking on for a laugh and serious beats but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone that religiously loves the tracks on the album, because they get picked apart like a corpse by a vulture.
If you like Yoda's other work, this fits like a glove.
Impressively Wrought, a Little Schizophrenic
While Yoda is incredibly skilled, I do understand the complaints about the (over?) use of samples and incrediblly dense nature of the production. However, this is Yoda, and his idea that this is cut & paste, per the title should couch the highly constructed, collage quality of this mix. I think the scratching is both nostolgic and somehow new. While jumpy, if you like Shadow mixtapes and livesets of other DJs, then you will probably like this one too. takes me back to my childhood
big letdown
bought this on a whim also due to the interesting playlist but dj yoda does not have the force working with him on this one. way too much 'wicky wicky' and stupid samples cause a headache and ruin the flow. this was supposed to be a highlight of our upcoming 80's house party but its back to the store for me.....
