BABY SHUG SAYS:

The vinyl gates of a sampler's heaven have creaked wide and fallen from the clouds has arrived a long-overdue care package of pure Australian musical history told through the voices of over 3500 samples of wax. Fleshed out into a world not entirely ready back in the ancient year of modern electronic and dance, 2000, aussie hermit DJ mad-scientists, Robbie Chater and Darren Seltmann concocted what was concieved as a conceptual experiment in sampling, compiling 18 tracks of something of an unfortunately rare sound, yet all too familiar funk ranking sonically in stature amongst top-tiered heavyweight, late 90s/early 2000s spinners like Daft Punk or The Chemical Brothers. Long out of print and all too pricey for original cuts of this Australian fable double-LP, whatcha got here is a 100% wholesome warranty for a fully funked up time. Tracks like 'Frontier Psychiatrist' and 'Since I Left You' demonstrate a then-pinky promise of innovation for an era of Electronic unsure of where to exceed after counteless tried-and true methods of production had been utilized fully (and perhaps all too much). What you have here is a fantastic soundtrack containing the crumbs, roots, and berries of music in all its forms. To put it in a concise and leisurely casual thesis, if your record player was a sketchy masseuse in the part of town nobody Yelps about, and you gave them this, it'd be one hell of a happy ending if you're picking up what I'm puttin down. Spin you a classic, baby. Oh, it's on BLUE VINYL too.Everybody loves blue. The ocean is blue. The ocean is on this cover. Don't feel blue, get a blue record. Dig, baby, dig.
