the lab review

A major shake-up in the Hollertronix saga! Not only has the series jumped ship from Money Studies over to Mad Decent, but Diplo has handed over the production reins to fellow Philadelphian DJ Sega and Baltimore's DJ Blaqstarr. The Venom-style logo on the label is no mistake either -- just like on his Rockstars vs. Clubheadz mixtape, Sega flips the most unimaginable nu-metal and rock tracks into some HEAVY club thumpers. As one who always had a soft spot for the original, Sega's flip of Papa Roach's "Last Resort(1)" definitely hits the spot. (The "don't give a-- WHAT?!" with Lil Jon tossed in is perfecto.) Also sick is "Bodies Hit The Floor(2)," which blends the guitar licks from AC/DC's "Thunderstruck" with Drowning Pool's ultimate meathead rock anthem. Along with more metal on "Dig(3)," we also get the hype "Fuck Um!(4)," a little Busta on "Woo-Hah!(5)" and Blaqstarr with a very excellent (and very Blaqstarr-y) edit of "Smack My Bitch Up(6)." Highly recommended.
