The problem with most turntable records is that the artists are DJs, not
producers, so the beats they scratch over are usually kinda week. MMM is
one of the few who does have quirky production skills...on "Anti-Theft
Device" he uses that alien sound from the movie "Contact" and all
kinds of weird stuff. I think his album is worth it, though it got lots
of mixed reviews. Other good producer/DJs are Disk and Faust, both on
Bomb Records (I think). Q-bert's pretty good too...
