This recording, as the title implies, is a collection of samples and small background tracks for DJs and composers of (mostly) hip-hop. It is NOT a collection of completed works for the average listener. The collection is merely a tool for recording artists to use (with permission, I'm certain) for their recording projects.
Having said that, it's a great piece of work! The fact of the matter is, most DJs and hip-hop artists use the method of putting together tracks with tools like this all the time. I'd go so far as to say that's the only way one can make a song of this genre, if the previous 20+ years of it's existence is any indication. I've already spotted some of these tracks used by the likes of Missy Elliot and Ciara.
All-in-all, it's fun to listen to. It's not something to blast on the hi-fi, seeing is it that many tracks on this aren't more than 5 seconds. But, good stuff!

Paul Oakenfold!! AND Normam Cook!! Twice the excitement right?!
Wrong.
This is a sample box for DJs. Funny how accurate the name is. If you're not a DJ or producer, this probably isn't for you. Actually, even if you were a DJ or producer, is this really how you'd get samples?
Surely not.
Poor. I really think Oakenfold and Cook are taking this piss with this release.
I can't believe Oakenfold would put his name on this. February 15, 2006

The title should be a clue. This album is nothing but individual samples played over and over again to a drum loop. I'm not a newcomer to electronic music, and I understand that repetitive themes surrounded by creative variation is par for the course. That's not what this is. It sounds like he spent about 15 minutes on each track. He literally takes a single melodic loop and repeats it over and over and over again on top of a single drum loop. All the tracks are like this. There is NOTHING TO THE PRODUCTION. After being spoiled with Creamfields, Great Wall, The Club, Tranceport, and Bunkka, I expect some world class production. This is not it. I can't believe Oakenfold would put his name on this. In fact, I can't even believe this is Paul Oakenfold, it is so mindlessly bad. I'm a little mad at Oakenfold, I must say, for robbing me of $14.
