Darth Fader, Butch Wax, Skratchy Seal and The Unknown Dirtstyler combine on one record. Lots of unskippable sentences, tones, and percussion pieces on one side, four beats on the other. Cool throwback Dirtstyle sleeve too. -the mgmnt

Long-awaited. One side has crazy-ass beats that take some gettin used to, but that's what we expect from the piklz. The other side is probably the most comprehensive skratch noise library ever assembled. You get over 150 sounds new and old, but...
expand review the reason why we really like this, is that the sounds are organized in usable combinations. Ever wish you had an "aaahhh" after a certain sound, well it's probably on here. One of our best selling records right now. -the mgmnt

Number one reason to buy this record: Toadman acapella freestyle!!! Comedy aside, another Flare sure shot, he's one of the most talented electro beat producers around. He's almost signatured the dark basement, turntable tv sound. 4 lengthy beats, one with a locked...
expand review groove at the end. Skratch noise selection is quite extensive with a large VIDEO GAME noises section. I'm not up with all the new shit, but I did hear some Pac Man and Missile Command in there. Also features one skip-proof skratch sentence, and a longer skratch sentence with an old-school hip-hop theme. Recommended. -the mgmnt

This graphic is not the best thing to look at after watching The Hills Have Eyes I & II. They're all about mutant hicks that go around slashing innocent people stuck in the desert, so you can imagine if you caught this...
expand review two-headed freak in the wrong mood what could happen. Speaking of sequels, this is the follow-up to the essential scratch record Hee Haw Breaks! Unfortunately, there's no Flare beats; all the breaks are kinda downtempo-ish and are produced by newcomers DJ Lonely, Insted and Matt Bloom. Four beats total, one scratch track that you can skip (sounds like a "what do you think of my scratch file?" post on the D-Styles board circa 2000) and a scratch sentence by Flare & Lonely. Yipee ki yay muddaphuckas. -C'mish

Just as classic as foot breaks. Lots of memorable moments here. The "my uzi weighs a ton" beat never fails to make the heads nod. Fundamental skratch phrases (uh-uh-break-ahh-there-it-is). Gotta have the wheels before you get the girl. I don't really like...

First volume in Qbert's Breaktionary which gives you over 60 funk breaks one after another, at the same tempo on one record. It's a no brainer- no more carrying tons of crates to a jam, just grab doubles, rock out and get...

The first break on here's the killer (the one that starts with the 'Car Wash' dj intro). The second one's the juggular with it's hard thumpin bass. The first side ends with one of the longest skratch sentences ever made. The whole...
expand review second side is electro heaven with 8 separate tracks that stay on beat. We think there should be more of these (variations/variety of beats within the same track or back-to-back) on skratch tracks... just like Idris used to do. You'll like this one. -the mgmnt
