| | First Generation Rap: The Old School, Vol. 3 CD
Old school rap fanatics might want to seek out Collectables' First Generation Rap, a four-volume series that compiles many rare sides and instrumental versions. Not every track is a bona fide classic, but everything here is of some value, if only for the sake of history. The series definitely has collectors and DJs in mind, since vocal versions are often followed by instrumental or extended versions. The third volume features the Masterdon Committee ("Funk Box Party," "Gonna Get You Hot," "Paid the Cost," and "Musicgram"), Source ("Ghetto Life"), the Fearless Four ("Rockin It" and "It's Magic"), and Kool Kyle the Starchild ("Do You Like That Funky Beat"). ~ Andy Kellman

On paper, Illuminati looks like it would be an amazing collection of remixes. With 15 assorted artists remixing twelve different songs by The Pastels, one would think there'd be a great deal of variation between the remixes, especially considering the talent of the remixers. But Illuminati ultimately falls a bit flat, as artists as diverse as My Bloody Valentine, Cornelius, Stereolab, To Rococo Rot, Future Pilot AKA, and Jim O'Rourke, among others, mostly play things too close to the vest. The result is that the tracks sound remarkably similar, and, for the most part, like white-washed versions of the original songs. It doesn't help that three songs make multiple appearances in various forms. Some tracks end up working no better than aural wallpaper. My Bloody Valentine, which makes two appearances, seems to be the chief influence of most of the other remixers; the first remix is too short to leave much of an impression, so ardent fans won't be as happy as they expected to be upon finding out that two new My Bloody Valentine creations are included. The best moments come from Cornelius, Future Pilot AKA, John McEntire, and Ian Carmichael. The Cornelius remix of "Windy Hill" is as interesting and exciting as anything from his Fantasma album; it's pretty, touching, and accomplished. Ian Carmichael turns The Viaduct into an even more gentle, stop-start ballad, full of interesting sounds and sweeping, sampled guitars. Future Pilot AKA's additional work on "Rough Riders" adds more to the original song than most of the other remixers combined; the song winds up sounding like a frazzled, joyous play on the original. John McEntire's remix of "Remote Climbs" is more mature and interesting than most of the work he's done with Tortoise; ...
