Reviews6 out of 10 - "...This is the fetishasation of sound for its own sake...That's not to say there aren't great moments here...", Included in Rolling Stone's "50 Best Albums of 2002in, 3 Stars Out of 5-"Josh 'dj Shadow' Davis Is Undeniably a Master of His Craft...", 3 discs out of 5 - "...The vibe here is more overtly bumptious...Shadow is working angles his contemporaries haven't thought of yet...", "...An astounding achievement that should easily catapult Shadow back into the spotlight...soul stirring beats, irrepressible DJ theatrics, personality and humor....Completely captivating and flawlessly imaginative...", 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...A moody, murky album...and fascinating in its own right....A 57-minute pastiche of beats, sound effects, machine hums, found voices and mock-symphonic patterns of robot noise, shifting from texture to texture almost casually...", Ranked #19 on Spin's list of 2002's "Albums of the Year" - "...Indelibly shaped by hip-hop but lured astray by every other sound in the universe.", Ranked #36 in Mojo's "Best Albums of 2002in, 4 out of 5 stars - "...Much of the album evokes a dream-state between waking and sleeping....Davis is a man who takes himself incredibly seriously, with his intense demeanour and slavish devotion to hip hop...", "...An intense experience, precisely focused yet disarmingly ambiguous....You will hear few finer records this year."
Well I bought this for one track and to be honest that is how it stayed, was not really a fan of the other material, but you win some and lose some as they say !
Classic DJ Shadow. Using a variety of methods to create a very urban soundscape. Initially I heard the Private Repress, and although my preferred album of the two, I have found that this album true to his continued development of sound.
