Free Music Review: Just Relax While I play you some Nice... Broken Beats
Hit: 5 Stars

DJ Kicks... one of my favorite DJ series. Carl Craig, Thievery Corporation, Kruder/Dorfmeister, DJ Cam, Smith & Mighty, Daddy G, Terranova, Stereo MC's and at least a dozen others have all graced the series with their unique mixes. This one, done up in 2001, was put together by Truby Trio. That's Rainer Truby, Christian Prommer and Roland Appel - the last two being members of Fauna Flash but all three working togehter or individually or even with other groups on the German label "Compost".

This is easily one of my favorite DJ Kicks releases. It starts out sweetly with Conjure's "Medley" before Truby Trio's own "High Jazz" kicks in. I dig their cut - it's got a sensational broken beat to it and a class that was neatly remixed a few years later. That's followed up seamlessly with Block 16's "Find an Oasis"; a track that's loaded with Braziliance, soul & electronica. A moody track follows up, "Edony", by Africanism before another neat broken beat by Matthaus. Slow Supreme's "Granada" is a track that would be popular on a few mixes and is soooooo... I dunno, "Europish". :) I never said that was a bad thing, and it has an awesome electronic feel to it. One of the other highlights to me was Afronaught's "Transcend Me". This cut JAM's, you listen to it once and think it's cool but then it sticks in your mind and you have to hear it again. Other great songs on this were Korova's "Some People", remixed by Waiwan, Modaji's "one and the Same" done up by Jazztronik, and.... heck... the whole thing's pretty sweet. Tim Hutton's "Colours" would sort of be the track of the summer in 2002, you've got another Truby Trio track remixed by Zero db, a kicken beat by Voom:Voom (who is Prommer, Appel and Peter Kruder) and a sick percussion and sax track to close the set by... Fauna Flash. Funny though - I don't know if it's really possible to find a good album with broken beats that doesn't include anyone from Bugz in the Attic (Afronaught, Modaji, etc.)

I definitely recommend this one. I love it. The music's tight and it's great electronica and broken beats from all over. Since this, Truby Trio's gone on to make loads of remixes, release a feature album in 2002, a remix album a few years later and Rainer's also done lots of work too. K7's a label known for underground beats and grooves but I'm pretty sure that over the years, their secret's out now. If you like this, be sure to keep your eye out on a DJ Kicks' "Best Of" sort of deal that just came out this month title: "DJ Kicks - The Exclusives". You also have to get your hands on the Trust the DJ series' as this mix is eerily similar to Gilles Peterson's "GP01", and you'll probably like Phil Asher's "PA01" and "PA02" along with the sets done by Patrick Forge, Michael Reinboth (also of Compost) and Dr. Bob Jones.
