DJ Vadim - U.S.S.R.: The Art of Listening (2002)

An old favorite - a fantastic hip-hop album, with great abstract/funky/dubby/reggae beats and turntablism provided by DJ Vadim, and great MCs on every track. Not to mention some interesting and fun vocal samples here and there. My 4.5 star rating may be a little generous, but it's at least deserving of 4. It may mean a little something more to me as it introduced me to a few of the MCs on here, and was perhaps one of the first abstract hip-hop albums I ever picked up when I started getting into instrumental hip-hop.
