Not much has been said about this album. I have to agree, it's slammin'.
It's also got cuts from the Battle Sounds documentary. New voices on the
microphones. Pure New York cuttin' and scratchin'. Classic breakin' music
for folks in Detroit (as I've seen already). Roc Raida and Rob Swift really
stand out on this disc.

I heard Swift put out an album but I haven't found it in these bins. I have
cuts on both Return of the DJs with Swift and Raida but I can never find
any other stuff by them...
