Editorial Reviews

This compilation, assembled by Detroit DJ and producer Terrence Parker, introduces the hip-hop sounds of Detroit through a collection of 17 instrumental tracks intended, the liner notes claim, as "musical blunts which give the ultimate natural high." Beatheads take note: this compilation was intended primarily for European audiences, so the sounds here are, to American ears, more trip-hop than hip-hop. Detroit's musical legacy, stretching from Motown to techno, is strongly represented; Parker's own contributions are stuffed with the soulful piano and string melodies that pervade his other work, and the same deep emotion crops up in tracks from Kanabis the Edit Assassin, the Andre Johnson Project, and DJ Slym Fas. Overall, the sound of Detroit hip-hop has the sample-and-loop aesthetic we know and love, without the pretension and aggressive attitude that American hip-hop is known for. --Matthew Corwine
