I specifically meant the 7" of Public Enemy and Herb Alpert in my recommendation of that label, as that label's output is all I know about. I thought that this 7" matched the sense-of-humor-side of like-minded music (Office Prod.) I don't know about their other work, but that 7" is an entertaining record to mix and a good comment on music copyright (making something new via appropriation). Even when production isn't that great, good ideas can still get their point across... Solenoid
