WHAT JAMES HAMILTON HAD TO SAY ABOUT THIS RELEASE:
THE MAFIA ‘The Scene Of The Crime’ (BBH Records BBH 2)
The South Coast megamixers return with another doubtless dodgy white labelled 0-109⅔-109½-109¾-0bpm clever creation, which synchs stuff like Kurtis Blow’s ‘The Breaks’, Rufus & Chaka’s ‘Ain’t Nobody’, James Brown’s ‘Static’ and ‘I’m Real’ through Maze’s continually underpinning ‘Twilight’ ‘Joy And Pain’ finale (with an 109½bpm sort of industrial acid dub), not that hard to find and selling well.
