La Roc Rocks

Amazon.co.uk Cut La Roc is Skint's scratch wizard--master of the dancefloor tool that's less a talent, more a discipline. But how to reconcile the fun-loving ethic of Brighton's fearless party crowd with the trainspotter style urges of the turntable wicki-wicki-wizard? Watch and learn, folks--La Roc Rocs stuffs in the genres until they are shoulder to shoulder, "Rapper's Delight" sampling Bentley Rhythm Ace-isms such as "Hip Hop Bibbedy Bop" rubbing up nicely against the bass-juddering house of "La Roc Rocs" and the city-slickin', jay-walkin' Shaft fantasies of "N.Y. Pimp". It's seldom, actually, that Cut La Roc brings his laudable scratch talents to the table--at the time of writing, La Roc holds the world record for DJing with nine decks simultaneously--but really, that's probably for the best. Forget the tedious deck trickery, La Roc Rocs is another staunch, hardy advocate of Skint's broad-minded dancefloor manifesto. And just when think you've heard it all, try the ramalama cut-up rock & roll of "Post Punk Progression", featuring Northern Irish nu-grungers Snow Patrol. Now that's eclectic. --Louis Pattison Product description Cut La Roc - La Roc Rocs
