Comment:

Now we're really diving into the esoteric (relatively speaking). Fatboy Slim is the only artist on this list who enjoyed any sort of significant US chart success, and if you want to throw in Pulp and maybe Air and the Propellerheads you could have the Top 40 on both sides of the Atlantic covered. The others? Well, hip-hop's had better years but it hasn't had many better songs than the Coup track that closes this mix. Freddy Fresh is an old associate of the BDP crew who excells in Fatboy-esque Big Beat; Hive and Dr. Israel bring the jungle (replete with crossover-friendly hard rock guitar riffs); the BellRays and Monster Magnet party like it's 1969; Will Smith makes the world smile- wait, that last one's on Robert Christgau's best-of list, not mine.

UPDATE, 12-19-02: Amon Tobin. Gotta have some of that action.

yeah, very nice! The title is possibly one of my favorite Pulp lines ever. And the JSBX track is killer too.
