"this is da bomb! I don't care what anybody says... when you get stuff like japanese shikahachi flutes mixed with Moby, little snippets of Redman saying "let's get ILL!" mixed with Kool Keith, or some of the weird ambient sounds at the end of the record, its just open... think Solid Steel or Krush's Code 4109, but more abstract. I've been checking Dj Spooky's stuff for a while, and Necropolis was weirder than this stuff... "Under the Infleunce" is more dance oriented... Spooky always breaks rules [....] I say good! I'm soooo sick of dj's that play the same stuff all the same way every time... the turntablism in this is subtle - weird effects underneath Saul Williams voice, Future Sound of London turned into dub, Deckwrekka (a cool underground turntablist out of London) cut into Sussan Deyhim - who sings in some weird middle eastern language... this is like what Grandmaster Flash and Afrika Bambaata were doing back in the day... its raw, but smooth. Choice cuts: Sonic Youth's "Tremens" (weird instrumental chilled out rock), Dj Spooky's remix of Anti-Pop consortium, Paradox's mix of middle eastern sounds with drum n' bass... another subliminal classic"
Nice...not a bumpy ride through underground music

"Five stars to DJ Spooky (...)Being his second DJ mix since 1996 one can notice a difference in sound. His older work "Necropolis" is dope, and contains a lot of ambient/illbient/dub tracks. This is a little more hip-hop friendly, featuring a lot of ill underground acts (i.e Anti-Pop Consortium, Mike Ladd, DJ Logic). This is the first album that I have heard that has successfully attempted to bring together clearly defined underground musical genres without loosing the vibe. (...)Show him your support."

"This CD is pretty tight, infact one of the tightest i have ever heard period. I got into The Deckwrecka and DJ Spooky like 2 years ago and this is my favorite cd yet. A lot of breakbeats and a nice drum'n'bass fill. The best songs in my opinion are 3:7:8 by Emergency Broadcast Network, Show Stoppa by DJ Ziggy, and Sycosis by The Deckwrecka. Mad beats and some skilled turning by paul. Nice job on this paul. Peace guys. You like hip hop or techno with a jazz-twist, then you will like it."
Don't know much about the genre...

"but this album caught my ear at a party a few weeks back. i picked it up the next day and have been listening to it ever since. (i don't own any of his other stuff, and i'm generally leery of comp mixes because you don't always know what you're getting.) i don't know what his other stuff is like, but this is a pretty catchy mix. i love it because it wanders all over the place, from ambient to indie rap. the liner notes talk about life and metamorphises and it's easy to see how dj spooky constructed that philosophy in this mix. the best part for me is the transition from "anger" into "music is...". "anger" is the third of three trance-ish tracks that are really kind of boring. and out of that emerges phoenix orion's "music is...". it's catchy as hell, one of the best parts, and it kicks off 5 or 6 really danceable hip-hop and house tracks. and yeah, there are some tracks that are annoying/boring, but the vast majority are listenable at the very least.and it's almost 75 minutes, so you're definitely getting your [price] worth."

"This mix album is definitely worth the effort and money to grab it. It is eclectic, as is most from Spooky. He still reigns as my fave DJ, seeing him spin those tables is a surreal site. As it says on the package, this album doesn't bank on some current dance-floor trend. It is Spooky showcasing his many influences and favorite tracks. Those range from Sonic Youth's "Tremens" to Moby's "Sound". He mixes his own collaborations into the cd as well to create a mix cd like none I have heard. Overall, it is a compelling listen, and a very varied album that I can listen to no matter what my mood."
