This is absolutel GOLD!
They best breaks LP out there! Most like Ultimate Breaks & Beats give you one heavy hitter maybe two most per LP, this has A+ breaks back to back!
You can literally start with just this double LP and Amen and be pretty much set for break beats.
The money you saved getting all these breaks on this double LP can go towards expensive breaks like Hihache and Life Could, maybe a decent repress of Sport and Skull Snaps. Apache and Funky Drummer are always worth having doubles of. Once you've achieved this you'r basically a break beat demi God, use your power responsibly.
This really doee help, breaks on vinyl are getting expensive and in some cases rare.
And the breaks sound good, they sound like the UBAB 45s to my ear, all is good.
How on earth Pogo got away with this, who knows? I guess not many people know about it, this is literally like a real life cheat code. If I ever meet Pogo, he can have a drink on me! -
This comp is insane ! ... All (!) big drum breaks & funk classic cramped onto 2x12" :) .... Pressing is awesome too !! // Tommy -
Edited 3 years agoA huge selection of bass ass party jams, featuring some of the best tunes that have been sampled to the ends of the earth by Hip Hop, Dance and Jungle Drum & Bass producers across this earth. Wonderful -
Seems crazy to list the person who curated the collection as the artist, no? Surely this should be listed under 'Various'.
