I'm really feeling all the new Madlib stuff I've heard lately. The DJ Rels kinda reminds me of Nu Era's 'Broken Soul' for some reason, although I can't pinpoint it and it isn't an obvious comparison. I'm probably just wrong about that... The Madlib Remixes Vol. 2 2x 12" is particularly interesting because it's all hip hop acapellas over samples from 1977-1982. There's some nice disco and even vaguely techno bits in there, as well as some properly 80s sounding stuff. I was [this] close to buying the Monk Hughes but ran out of funds. Sounded great from the clips. Did anyone else pick up the Okayplayer 'True Notes Vol. 1' compilation? I've not properly had a chance to ingest it all yet, but the Madlib with Aceyalone track on there is the business, and I believe it's exclusive to that comp. The Madvillain album is probably the best full length so far this year (to continue my trend of lofty, untimely proclomations). ;) MF Doom is a bad-ass MC.
