Various Artists ‎– Smokin Beats











Various Artists
Smokin Beats (2CD)
2002 Ministry Of Sound

So this is where I was headed with the last 3 posts (minus April Fools Day). Odd, yet pretty excellent compilation from the folks at Ministry of Sound with a bunch of tremendous artists including Kinobe, Jakatta & Bent. It may take 15 minutes to get through the Hip-Hop on disc 1 (I’m not a huge fan of Rap after 1995) but I think you’ll be pleased. So turn down the lights, grab a drink & comfy chair and set this to play. I’m sure you need something to help detox, I sure do.

  2. I miss any record store these days. I find huge pleasure in raiding my local Half Price bookstores for older releases and spending way too many hours on Discogs. BTW....https://www.discogs.com/user/djraf2003 (sorry, shameless plug)
