Stunning Afro Funk from this incredible combo – as great as anything from the 70s, and maybe even better! The album's the second full length release from New York's Antibalas Liberation Orchestra – and like the first, it's an insanely wonderful batch of funk tunes that follows fiercely ...

Music Scene ... CD Ninja Tune (Canada), 2010. Used ...
$8.99
A survey of The Music Scene through the eyes, mind and fingers of longstanding hip hop and spacey beatcraft guru Blockhead! Blockhead's way with a sample has been one of the reasons we've been on board so long, and it's as unpretentiously hypnotic as ever here – staying defiantly headnodding ... read moreCD
As the Ninjas say: ultra musical, accessible beatscapes, with that mellow vibe that is best described as chill, though lately it seems that's become a euphemism for sleepy collages of tones and beats, which this album isn't. Atmospheric monkey funk from the label that just about started the ... read moreCD
Matt Black & Jonathan Moore were some of the first to peddle the non-hip hop remixologist tip back in the late 80s – and 10 years later, they're still on the top of their craft with this complicated set of grooves, breaks, and turntable tricks for Ninja Tune! The set includes the tracks ... read moreCD
Jazzy electronica – with a true jazz edge, not that fake "jazz" reference that you so often find producers making to sound hip, but never actually coming up with in their own music! Flanger features Atom Heart (aka Senor Coconut) on Fender Rhodes, vibes, guitars, and more – ... read moreCD
Soulful beats with more than a hint of a hip hop influence – no surprise, considering that the album features guest appearances by Bahamadia, What What, Roots Manuva, The Dream Warriors, and Blade.

12 Bit Blues ... CD Ninja Tune (UK), 2012. Used ...
Out Of Stock
Raw, stripped down hip hop sample blues from Kid Koala – done on his trusty SP1200! It's unlike anything Koala's done to date, and unlike any of the more famous examples of a producer-DJ mining old school blues records. It's cool stuff – grainy, gritty and respectful of root materials ... (Hip Hop, New Grooves)read moreCD
(CONDITION NOTES: Digipak has been crushed in one corner and slipcase is torn. Still comes with cardboard, hand-powered gramophone turntable kit and 5" Flexi Disc.)
Soul jazz vocalist Dwight Trible gathers the forces for this magnificent effort – an album pairing his emotionally rich vocals and singular spirit with a group of largely west coast allstars – and it's pure genius! The Life Force Trio, from what we can tell, is simply the moniker for ... (Vocalists, New Grooves)read moreCD
An excellent 3CD compilation of slept on Ninja Tune cuts – a diverse batch of tracks that go back about a decade to collect rarities, should-be classics and some unreleased material from the Ninja Tune canon – nearly 50 tracks in all! Funky club, stuttering left field glitch hop, folky ... (Funky Compilations, New Grooves)read moreCD
A glorious celebration of a decade of Ninja Tune! The set's packed full of all the best bits on the label – and includes a number of out of print or hard to find tracks. Titles include "More Beats & Pieces (John McIntire & Tortoise rmx)" by Coldcut, "Channel 1 Suite ... read moreCD
A thick, two disc retrospective of all things Zen from Ninja Tune! The 32 tracks here pretty much stick to the Ninja Tune prototype of innovative turntablist and digital psychedelia that made the Ninja name – some of the better album tracks and singles by DJ Food, Coldcut, Amon Tobin, Mr. ... read moreCD
