the cool unkle with the goods
very varied mix from unkle in a 3 cd set- the cd entitled shin is the best-closer to the slower fiction style. the other two are good but sometimes seem to be trying to match current dj mix trends. unkle are best in a slower pyschedelic hiphop style in my opinion and some of this is close to traditional techno and house. Still its a diverse mix that most electronic fans will enjoy and the true standouts are all the remixes of the original unkle tracks like lonely soul-rabbit in your headlights-nursery rhyme-etc. worth it for the shin disc alone. of note-*** Two copies i bought had to be returned because of skipping-brand new out of package- i think the cd presser didnt catch the error as the new release boxset all seem to skip in places- especially during the g1 disc(red hot chili peppers- breakin the girl). ironically the best discthat i like is perfect- both g1 and taj cds skip in places so keep your receipts.

The best thing you will hear in a while.
I often read bumped up reviews here in amazon, 5 stars here, 5 stars there. Many I would disagree with, despite being good albums, they are maybe just a 4 star good, 4.5 even. Do Androids dream of electo beats is not a 4 star album though. Unkle bring your listening to a new level. This album reminded me why I started listening to breaks in the first place: for intricate montages of sound bringing different styles and beats together in a way which flows, providing an enlightening experience, both chilling and uplifting. For a beautiful merger of Unkle's previous sounds, some shadow cuts and tunes you didn't know you liked until now, Unklesounds is the sound of the future. enjoy.

essential for you UNKLE fanboys/girls...
UNKLE is dj shadow and james lavalle.
originally released overseas in the U.K. as a limited run of about 300 copies for the mo wax label (not the mass realeased bootleg of what you see here-the original doesn't have a bar code on it's outer slipcase), it finally hits here. 3 CDs you wonder? what kind of UNKLE magic could they house? well, it's not a tightly packaged album in the vein of the groundbreaking psyence fiction, as it is one continuous loop of great beats and samples; some very familiar, and some you may not have heard. diverse as clips of the "bladerunner" theme (vangelis) to the stones' sympathy for the devil and the closing of the set with fleetwood mac's the chain...this is experimental and pure turntable escapism...not a set of remixes or revisits necessarily, but more of the expressive collage of sound that shadow has put out in his past solo efforts, but still more of the familiarity to the genre with lavalle. for all UNKLE-heads out there, this is one to pick up. (part two of the set is "big brother is watching you.")
