I see you rubbing your eyes in disbelief like a drunken cartoon prospector, but it's true - our man Egg Foo has dropped a brand new cassette-only mix on dat azz. No hand-duped stuff here neither, Super Crispy Mega Ultra Fly is...   expand review  a real deal pro-made tape, "mixed live using 2 turntables, Serato and vinyl" in Brooklyn circa January 2008. We don't even have access to a tape deck up here in the office, so we can't tell you what's in the mix, but something tells me Michna wants it that way. Our prediction is BASS. Printed on the tape: "For detailed tracklisting place cassette in tape deck and press play. Use large speakers for maximum sound." -suicide bangs

How many of you bought Midnight Marauders on vinyl, opened it up to find some weak-ass piece of flimsy vinyl, then play it and hear one of the most quiet major releases in history?!!! You know you can get the young butt...   expand review  meat in the clubs moving to non-single tracks like "We Can Get Down" or "The Chase pt.2," but you never had the vinyl muscle. They finally wisened up and pressed this baby up loud the way it shoud be. A gotta have. -the mgmnt

Shoes has been undeniably one of the most popular remixers on the Lab pages for the last couple years. Everything he puts out flies out of here, partly because he picks what the people want (not what they don't know) and he's...   expand review  damn good at adding bump and dub to the bumpless and dubless. This is his most ambitious project yet, as he tackles the Miles Davis catalog (which I'm surprised that no one else has done yet) with four different styles. "So What(1)" starts it off dubwise, then we get into thumping, gratifying breakbeats with "Gone(2)." The flip continues with the most impressive track of the set, "In A Silent Way(3)," which sounds like a cross between an old DJ Krush record and a Theo Parrish Ugly Edit. Serious. Shoes brings it to a close with a version(4) of "Bitches Brew," a modernized abstract beats take on the Miles' swirling, musky original. Highly recommended. -the mgmnt

Another EP of cheeky Bmore club from Tittsworth on his & Ayres' T&A label. If there was any doubt before, this should put him on par with Jonny Blaze and Samir when it comes to these awesome gimmick tracks. "EZ(1)" is a...   expand review  nice, mellow chopping of The Commodores' "Easy," then "Cars(2)" (a remix of "Just What I Needed" to compete with Roctakon's) and "T's Diner(3)" (you know, the "doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo dooo" song – uh, listen to the sample) round out the A-side. The flip has a nice bonus beat mix(4) of "Easy" with nicely sequenced vocals ("I wanna be hiiiiigh!") and piano at the back. Also includes the rowdy "In Yo Face(5)" and R&B joint "Brains(6)." Recommended. -Chris Lemon-Red
