[Tubby Tucker]

The core nine members have around fifty albums between them. Where should I start?

i'd just say the earlier the better.ther nerd-ishness of that label started to annoy me before i checked a lot of it out.

 

[Stan Bowles]

Get the sampler and see what acts you like???

 

[rotten tropics]

actually yeah!scrap my advice.the samplers really cheap aswell

 

[SONYMEGADRIVE]

hmmm 2002?

joke...my knowledge of it drops off after a point
but i remember the deep puddle dynamics stuff
being good (album and the mini ep...with the clouds)

the first Them album...

the samplers (edit - as peoples have already said)

 

[SONYMEGADRIVE]

how did buck 65 get so boring!?

 

[Stan Bowles]

how did buck 65 get so boring!?

Because he stopped rapping about large mickeys.

 

[Ciarán R]

how did buck 65 get so boring!?

i think he improved as he got on actually...i like language arts and vertex etc but his voice could irritate a little at the time.
Think the lyrics are far superior now also

 

[SONYMEGADRIVE]

nobody cares what you think Ciaran R

 

[DIGGIDY]

get all nosdams albums, that should spark ya off, if ya want to throw some wood on the fire after that pick up DOSH's pure thrash, thats a fuckin corker of an album then if ya wanna tear the roof of tha bitch pick up PASSAGE's album and mix it with a little DARC MIND

Proper shit yo

if your diggin the anitcon stuff id highly reccomend DALEK's new one Abandoned Language , aint heard such ball breaking, ass bustin lyrics and beats i dont think ever since wu 36 chambers

peace

nobody cares what you think Ciaran R

Definately checkout "Why? -- Elephant eyelash"

 

[Ciarán R]

Definately checkout "Why? -- Elephant eyelash"

everything from Why? is great - if ya can pick up "Almost Live at Anna's Cabin", DO!!!

 

[dAndAn]

yeah, check the sampler. It's deadly and 7 quid or something.

Odd Nosdam, Burner is great. All Clouddead shit is also great.

Got very boring very quick tho did all the Anticon shit. Some terrible crap on the label.
