Search - V/A :: Building With Bricks vol. 3

This is the third volume in this highly regarded CD compilation series that showcases remixes, exclusives and non-album cuts that had previously only been available on 12" vinyl. The first disc finds long time staple DJ and producer Beyonder of The Bladerunners (Google that name to see what all the fuss is about!!!) mixing and editing his way masterfully in and out of all 21 tracks. The mix is fun, fluid and imaginative yet Beyonder still allows the entire track to ride so the listener feels engaged and never cheated. The track listing reads as a who's who of independent Hip Hop; you get verses and production from the likes of Statik Selektah, Termanology, 7L & Esoteric, DJ Premier, Reks, Main Flow, Raheem Jamal, Styles P, Q-Tip, Ras Kass, Papoose, Cormega, Raydar Ellis, D-Tension, Vinnie Paz (Jedi Mind Tricks), Insight, Channel Live, Kaze, Evidence, King Syze and many more!!! Disc Two boasts 15 bonus full-length songs that are all exclusives from Brick artists (or extended family) recorded for this set or select cuts that offer a preview to their full-length album that will be available from Brick in 2008. Such albums include Short Bus Alumni "Mr. T's Revenge", Reks "Grey Hairs", Statik Selektah "As Yet Untitled", Top Choice Clique "Reel Chemistry - The Anthology", East Coast Avengers (Esoteric, Trademarc & DC The Midi Alien) and Project Move "The Learning Tree." A strong 2008 lineup indeed. A must have for fans of Brick Records or any of the artists featured or just well done indie Hip Hop in general...thirty seven full length tracks on two discs for one super low price!!!
