DJ Premier is without a doubt one of the most respected heads in the HipHop game. His CV includes productions for Jay Z, Nas, Rakim, Common and many, many more (running into quadruple figures!), besides notching up two decades aongside Guru as the seminal Gang Starr outfit. His 'Originals' mix follows Dilla's installment with an authentically true-skool collage of sampled beats and breaks, cut and pasted in his efficient fashion and covering many Primo classics. In true old-skool style, there's absolutely no tracklisting to accompany this disc, coz any head worth his 1210's know that you don't reveal your sources, innit?! We can say that there's tracks from James Brown, Billy Cobham, The Blackbyrds, The Meters and Jean Jacques Perrey, but it's up to you to work out who did the other 200. Unmissable for any self respecting hiphop, funk or soul nuts!
