Rating: unmoved This record left our Mingus feeling unmoved.

Rustie Feat. 215 The Freshest Kids: Cafe De Phresh (Stuff) Touted as the next big thing...and i'm not really sure what all the fuss is about. I thought Rustie was from Scotland, all I can hear are some American sounding MC's rhymng over some old school sounding electro influenced Miami Bass. I've decided to flip it over so I'm not distracted by the off putting lyrics that refer to trainers as 'kicks'. Still the music sounds like the soundtrack to some low rent pole dancing/exercise dvd. I don't know why, I just can't get with it..it's like music to sell a thousand computer games to numb kids. I'd really like to hear what some of those Scot's MC's are saying-if there are any. The music is well executed but...oh I don't know, maybe I just don't wanna be down with what the hooded kids are into.

What the label says:

With everyone still drooling over his debut EP ‘Jagz The Smack’, Rustie is back with a brand new record. The dizzying rate at which he produces demands a daily visit to his Myspace to check his latest beats. Alongside Hudson Mohawke (Warp) he is part of the Lucky Me crew, a group of producers, DJs and artists making some of the most innovative hip hop this side of Madlib. The ‘Café De Phresh’ EP sees our man team up with California MCs Buddy Leezle and Cerebral Vortex from 215 The Freshest Kids for a record inspired by the two Ds - Drexciya and Dilla. On Side A Leezle and Vortex let loose all over Rustie's beats, reminding us that hip hop is about partying, ladies and most of all having a dope sneaker collection. B-side is strictly for the instrumentals - think Drexciya style synth flourishes meets low-end dirty hip hop swagger. First 500 come in a screen printed 80s graffiti inspired sleeve. Support so far from Mark Pritchard, DJ /Rupture, Phon.O, Modeselektor, Jay Scarlett, Neil Landstrumm, Mary Anne Hobbs and more.

About the humble 12":

The 12" is the big brother of records as it's an fatter version of the 7", with a vast scope for an array of remixes and B sides. They are slightly less portable their smaller inched brethren but they're by no means inferior. Often the grooves are spaced wider apart and thus sound much much better. You can fit ample tracks on and if worse comes to worse they make fine plates (should your crockery go awol). Yes, there's a hole but holes are easy to sort out. Once again they're available on many different colours and guises. The best thing about a 12" is the potential vastness of the artwork. Also playable on many speeds!!
