Synopsis

Album Description
The Mixologists are right up there with the Scratch Perverts for success as a turntablist crew. In 1997, DJ Go wanted to bring together a group of like-minded DJs and thus formed The Mixologists with Beni G. Together, this stellar team came in second at the DMC World Finals. The pair has also attracted sponsorship from Nike, Shure and Vestax. These two turntable wizards have compiled Champion Sounds with love and care. The Mixologists seamlessly merge hip-hop from both sides of the Atlantic with drum n bass. The album features names like Sean Paul, Method Man and Redman, J Majik, Ms. Dynamite, Hype, The Streets and Un-cut. Beni G was the tour DJ for Mark B & Blade, performing alongside the likes of Eminem, Stereo MCs and Feeder.
 

CD Reviews

Strong first release

"
This is the first Mixologists album released to the general public. However, the Mixologists have a somewhat old and extremely successful history by winning (or being on the top 3) of multiple DJ battles and championships in Europe since they originally formed in 1997.



Before they released Champion Sounds in late 2003. DJ Go and Benny G (Mixologists) released a CD "Flip the Script" on Knowledge magazine's March 2003 issue. That CD is a must-get five-star CD. Similar to this one but with more melodic tracks combining excellent hip-hop with classic drum and bass. In addition, Flip the Script, introduces the jungle drummer and MC trip.



Don't get me wrong. This CD is worth buying to understand what the Mixologists are all about but if you like this, you need to get a copy of Flip the Script and you will be extremely satisfied. You maybe able to find it in the web or by subscribing to Knowledge magazine and ordering past issues.
