A Journey Into Fresh Diggin is a meandering, free-flowing reconceptualization of some of Madlib’s nicer joints tossed in among some random (but really great) soul-type tunes. All hot, though, trust me.
The Shadow joint, Funky Skunk, is an hour long hip-hop mix, showcasing the finest tracks from over the last few decades. The majority of the set focuses on the early stages of the genre, with Shadow selecting the best in 80's hip hop and early electro - where tracks were made the good old fashioned way; a tight loop of beats, sampled breaks, primitive scratching and an MC. A far away place from the overproduced and overpaid stars of of today's stale hip hop / R&B.
