James. Posted 13 August 2008 Share Posted 13 August 2008 Probably my favourite DJ. Total legend in hip hop, both lyrical and instrumental. Opened the doors of Japanese hip hop to me and is responsible for some of my favourite ever albums. Even if you think you don't like hip hop/trip hop/instrumental beats I'm confident you'll find something of his to love. For starters how about this track - Taken from his album Zen, a fantastic introduction to his world. Also contains an amazing collaboration with Black Thought (of The Roots). Buy it.

Samilktray Posted 30 August 2008 Share Posted 30 August 2008 This is quite possibly some of the most beautiful sounding music i've heard in Hiphop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all part of Solesides along with DJ Shadow, Quannum and so on you really need to check some of these out a great introduction to this family would be the following... Quannum Spectrum Solesides greatest Bumps both compilation albums that include the likes of Blackalicious, Shadow and so on both are such brilliant compilations and a great introduction to Hip Hop that is solely about beats and rhyming!! Nia by Blackalicious is also a great album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
