Various Artists - Ninja Tune XX - Sixx CDs
A box set celebrating 20 years of Ninja Tune.
It literally took me a day and a half to finish listening to this for the first time but there was never a moment where I wasn't enjoying the music which says a lot.
This 6 disc box set is a compilation of Ninja Tune artists past and present and it does a great job of reminding everybody that Ninja Tune is still the ****.
The Ninja Tune label focuses on:
-jazz
-electronic
-trip.hop
-breaks
-hip.ho
-dubstep
All of which are genres I enjoy and when you pluck out 6 Cd's worth of the best songs by the artists making this music you're either going to have an epic failure or success and thankfully this was the latter.
This box set is also a great way to find new music to listen too because there were definitely some good featured artists who I had never heard before that I plan on checking out solely based on the strength of their featured songs on this box set.
A few tracks I really enjoyed
Lou Rhodes & The Cinematic Orchestra - One Good Thing
Glasscut - Blink in the Night
Amon Tobin - Lost and Found
Roots Manuva - It's On
Zomby - The Forest
Eskmo - Cloudlight
