What Has Been Your Most Recent Purchase?

Time Machine are really dope.

A few other albums I *ahem* "aquired" that are really good are:

Heltah Skeltah - DIRT (Really rugged sh*t, love it)
Insane - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8xF82VIyy8

Termanology - If heaven was a mile away (J Dilla tribute) - Just check out this track:
Circulate (100 bars) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZwnLQzV_8A Dope!!

Evidence - The Layover EP (gotta love Evidence from Dilated)
Check out this track with Phonte (prob my fav MC at the minute), Blu (my up and coming fav MC) and Will.I.Am
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCidxgspSro&feature=related

Pacewon and Mr Green - Only Color that matters is Green
Actually a really good little album, lots of nice tracks, hes not a groundbreaking MC, but very listenable
Check out Children Sing - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DQWvOM5sUQ

Ill Bill - The Hour Of Reprisal
Really solid album, I always liked Non Phixion and thought ill bill had gone someone what stale after they broke up, but this album is pretty good. Check out his single produced by DJ Premier
Society is Brainwashed - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjNmGsQ16Vg

Royce Da 5'9 - The Revival - Actually this is kinda mehh, but mixed in with The Bar Exam 2 mixtape and his unreleased tracks I really like a lot of his music last year. Espically the 2 Stand Out tracks from this

(DJ Premier produced) - Shake This - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDfQWkl7Lhk
Love this track, don't let the name fool you, lol, its not a club single

Part Of Me - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQyIqTYG72c&feature=related
Also love this track, great song, great video, dont want to spoil it for you but its a great story track with a great ending (reminds me of a ellen page film)

Anything on Tres Records!!!

Yeah Giant Panda and PUTS label puts out all kinds of dopeness.

2 Blu projects (C.R.A.C.C and Johnson&jonson), Not as good as Below The Heavens but still great sh*t.

Shawn Jacksons dope, and New Jack Hustle.

But my fav is Y Soceity - Travel At Your Own Pace. Dope album, Damu is a f*cking great producer. Downloaded some of his free instrumental albums and he has some great tracks.

Never Off - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzW6s_4Mn2c

I could listen to this song (and instrumental) all day, by Panacea prod by Damu
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_jXqAVPzuE

Which brings me on to Panacea - The Re-Route

A remix album ft producers who are the cream of the underground, including Damu, Nicolay (Foreign Exchange), DJ Nu-Mark (J5), Newman(GP), DJ Spinna and the guys from Time Machine.

Ahh I'm kinda of rambling now, but i'd recommend checking out a lot of that sh*t, ohh and some real chill sh*t like Dela, Nujabes and Jazz Liberatorz.

I need to actually but a pile of these (finally got a job again, so will start to do so).

Ohh and check out anything Little Brother/ 9th Wonder related.

Wow that's going to keep me busy for a while!

It's my kind o' jive, man.

I went through a stage where I bought most of the main 45's from that. I've still got them but it cost me! Another good purchase for you would be the product placement breaks by Shadow & Chemist, though I was surprised at how many smaller tracks weren't mentioned in the tracklisting, I found a couple by accident.

I've been meaning to get Product Placement, but, as is my habit, every time I go to buy it I get sidetracked.

That link's awesome, though!

Another CD I got recently was The Hard Sell - DJ Shadow & Cut Chemist. I'm not as smitten with this session as I am with their others, though (from memory, I think it's another in the Brainfreeze series/concept). Mind you, I'm still yet to give it a decent run.

Cheers & beers,
Henry.

Yeah I found it to be a completely different cup of tea, it wasn't bad but I still prefer product placement and brainfreeze. You should definitely get hold of Product Placement though, try searching for something like product placement and the word blog and see what you might find
