Ahead of their debut album due for release later this year (2003), the Plump DJs arrive with the eighth installment of the FABRICLIVE series. Prepare for a sonic journey through the best in breakbeat, seemlessly mixed by Lee Rous and Andy Gardner, a.k.a. the Plump DJs.
With a massive underground following, the Plump DJs prove both their mixing and producing skills on this release, throwing 20 of the finest breakbeat tunes, including four of their own, into a seventy minute mix.
Although many of the tracks can sound shockingly similar, the mix chops and changes enough to avoid becoming too mudane. This was clearly made to be heard on the dancefloor but has enough energy to work anywhere else.
The standout track has to be Donna Summer's classic, I Feel Love, which brings the preceedings to a triumphant and euphoric climax.
For fans of the genre this is the breakbeat bible, and it should be no less than a throughly enjoyable listen for the rest of us.

I bought this cd after hearing their remix of Orbital's Funny Break on FABRICLIVE. 01 James Lavelle which I bought a few days before this one. Having never heard of the Plump DJ's I wasn't quite sure of what to expect but I never expected this.It starts off like early Chemical Brothers(Dig Your Own Hole) with From Home by Sound Allience followed by one of the funkiest tunes I've heard in ages, Nova by One Up Front (if this doesn't want to make you get up and dance you must be dead). It even throws in a few old tunes, Listen to the Drummer by Nation 12 (1990) and Hey Mr DJ by Screen 2 (1994) and makes them sound bang up to date. Even that doesn't compare to what they've done to I Feel Love by Donna Summer, a record that hasn't aged a bit since its release is given a new twist with added breakbeats and breakdowns, AWSOME. I love the sounds on this cd, it mixes breakbeats with tribal drums, acid with synth stabs, and when the first house beat comes in about 2/3's in its like a breath of fresh air. I highly recommend this cd, it's one of the best mix cd's I've heard in ages because it sounds fresh and new. Buy this if you like phat beats, funky basslines, acid tweaks, breakdowns, build ups, sounds that flip your head and of course good quality dance music that doesn't sound generic and staid like most mix albums. Highly recommended!

Of all the breaks albums that have graced the FabricLIVE series (and we're up to episode 20 as I write this!) I have to say that THIS is the best of them all. It's a proper aural workout, stick it on in your headphones or at a party, it doesn't matter where, this will never fail to work up a groove.
The mix flows from funky breakbeat in its early stages, little flavours of hip hop breaks here, little snatches of phat basslines there, before moving into tougher electronic territories. The highlights of this section all belong to the Plumps own productions, Squeaks and Bleeps bouncy electronics, the way that Contact 00's percussion just drives the mix on before Evil 9 is dropped in. This entire section is ace, the mixing spot on, the selection just right, ensuring the tension just builds and builds. The latter stages of the mix see the Plumps give a nod to electro past, familiar refrains triggering those nostalgic moments, with this topped off with the Plumps own thunderous take on Donna Summer's I Feel Love.
Cracking mix from the breaks scene's superstars showcasing much of the talent of the other big hitters of the scene. You're not taking a risk when purchasing this, you're buying guaranteed quality. Also grab their own Eargasm artist album for more of the Plumps unique take on breaks.
