Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
DJ Food is not, as many imagine, one obese bloke behind the decks. It's a collaboration between Matt Black and Jonathan Moore--aka Coldcut and their studio wizard Patrick Carpenter, a jazz/hip-hop DJ. It began in 1990 with a series of experimental jazz sample albums, but has naturally progressed into using these breaks, beats and loops to create a unique hybrid genre of their own--fierce turntablism, incorporating electronic lounge music, abstract hip-hop and acid jazz. Refried Food is a collection of remixes of their first six years' singles and of their debut artist album A Recipe For Disaster. Fila Brazillia, Autechre, Squarepusher, Vadim, The Herbaliser, Ashley Beedle and more are let loose. Each transform the tracks in their own distinctive style--Dr Rockit's mix of "Half Step" is given his nerdy garden shed treatment; Tongue and Groove transform "Spiral" into dense drum and bass. Occasionally, it seems a little soulless, a competition to out-mix each others technical tricks, but mostly it's excellent. --Sarah Champion

5.0 out of 5 stars Funkiness Is..., 25 Jun 2002
By Justin Lewis (Beautiful Cape Town) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This album took up residence in the CD player when some friends and I rented a beach house for a long weekend, and did the required job of painting a fine backdrop to a happy mood.
They do toy with their listeners, those cheeky Foodsters, but mostly this has the effect of enhancing the atmosphere created by this amazing disc. Witness the annoying drum machine solo on the Squarepusher mix of Scratch Yer Head, which suddenly turns into the most beautiful swirling tune. This is one of those albums that will have you picking a different favourite bit on every listen. Check it out if you've ever liked a bit of Ninja Tune.

4.0 out of 5 stars another recipe..., 24 Mar 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Refried Food (Audio CD)
Another great album from the London based Ninja Tune Label. It has a plenty of remixes made by some know artists like Squarepusher, Dj Vadim or the Fila Brazilia. It also features some B-sides from Dj food itself. If you like Dub this is a perfect album!
