Synopsis

Product Description

This CD will be the only commercial release of the Oh No vs. Now-Again Music Library. Originally created as music for television and film backdrops, the fans spoke and Now-Again and Oh No listened. Here s a chance to get the multi talented producer/rapper/DJ s take on the vast catalog of funk, soul and psychedelia contained in the Now-Again vaults. A total of 29 tracks. The collection is presented in a super limited edition "mini LP" package which includes a thick cardboard "tip on" sleeve with an obi strip. This CD will NOT be repressed!

CD Reviews

Loop digging disguised as a mix

Hubcap | Washington, DC | 01/28/2010

(2 out of 5 stars)

"I found this disappointing. I own and enjoy a lot of the Soul Cal and Now-Again catalog and was looking forward to a nice ADD-style mix. But this CD is pretty lazy. It sounds like Oh No picked parts of 30 songs he liked, threw them together and moved on. There's very little effort to make it flow. The mixing is barely there and the sequencing is choppy. I'm no DJ purist - I dig the Madlib off-the-cuff style - but seriously, some of the transitions sound like what I did when I was 13, turning the VOL knob down to zero to cut off a song on a mixtape.

I don't want to dog Oh No. He can and has done better - check his Ethiopium mix for a better showcase of his abilities. IMO this should have been marketed as a beats-and-pieces compilation and not as a finished product. If I were looking for hooks for a hip-hop track I would eat this up. But as a straight-up listening experience I'd pass."
