Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Hackney's Heartless Crew are not your typical snotty teen UK Garage group. This veteran sound-system trio boast a decade in the game, and their experience is large all over Crisp Biscuit Vol 1, their debut mix album. Mashing up ragga, soul, R&B, hip-hop, and two-step into a remarkably cohesive whole, it's poised somewhere between its UK Garage mix antecedents: neither brash and aggressive like So Solid Crew's Fuck It nor purely soulful like the Twice As Nice compilations, this street-level document wears its experience with pride.
It’s the lively interplay between MCs Bushkin and Mighty Mo that holds down cuts by artists as diverse as junglist veteran Shy FX, R&B queen Missy Elliott, and disco pioneers Earth, Wind, and Fire. But the hottest new garage dubplates, plucked straight from Fonti's record box, can look after themselves: the likes of Pretty Boy's "Brass Pocket" and DJ Hatcha's "Bashment" boast basslines as muscular as anything in the genre. One of the mix's unmistakable picks must surely be their very own debut single, "The Heartless Theme (Superglue Riddim)", though. It's a distillation of everything Heartless Crew are about: tough sound-system basslines, good-humoured rapping, and the sort of insidious pirate melodies that practically kidnap your radio. Unstoppable. --Louis Pattison

An amazing album which is so good your left gagging for more and quite simply 2 CDs does not do it justice. Cant wait for volume 2! Some quite amazing mixes with MC'ing which brings a smile to your face and makes your body groove! Check out Missy's Lick Shots instrumental mix and a host of others styles of music all mixed to perfection. By the way CD2 is a total mind blower! Make sure your neighbours can hear this album too as they need to know what they are missing. It is a total garage classic! It doesnt match hearing a live set by the Heartless Crew but if you like your garage you gotta have this in your collection. And even if you dont like your garage give it a try anyway as there is bound to be something in there which you'll like the sound of.

The Heartless Crew has produced an awsome album here. It contains fresh songs, with great mixing, each track flows into each other, without you realising. The MCing is clear and well placed. This is a good buy, with so many types of music on 2 discs, soul, regga, garage, the list goes on! So if you wanna keep in with the current sounds, get Crisp Biscuit V1.
