That might have been Return of the DJ 2. Anyway, I'll use this as a chance to recommend Deep Concentration (Om) again. It has a Latyrx track, plus X-men, Cut Chemist, Prince Paul, Peanut Butter Wolf, etc. (I'll post a tracklisting if anyone cares). Best part about it is the way it mixes up styles. It's a dj compilation, not a scratching or even hiphop comp. There's some acid jazz, some spacey abstract stuff, a DJ Shadowesque track, a couple scratching tracks, and there isn't a bad one in there. I've heard that it's a lot more "musical" than the RotDJ comps. Plus you get an enhanced CD with a cheesy beatbox, which is alright, sorta fun. Sam
