Top 3 Albums?

[SebP]

Dj Shadow- Endtroducing

listened to that album so much when It came out. This and Goldie-timeless, and the Sneaker Pimps album, that was in 1996. Fuck, I'm getting old.

[Nwonknu]

My top 2 HH albums of all time would probably be Madvillain - Madvillany and J-dee - Return 2 Detroit.
Heavy rotation at the moment:
Dibiase - Swingology
DJ Harrison - Polytoned
Knxwledge - Hud Dreems
Blu - Jesus

[TheDingo]

Knxwledge - Hud Dreems

That album was fantastic, I can't get over the dude's music. Did you cop the vinyl? I did and it came with the original album as well as a whole batch of unreleased beats on one side of the last record and they were amazing. Would definitely recommend copping the record.

As for me, my 3 albums in rotation right now would be:

1.) J Rocc - Beats on Tape
2.) K-Def - Gangster Instrumentals
3.) Ahmad Jamal - The Awakening (love Ahmad Jamal, even though his records are mainly just solo piano performances his records always feel so good to listen to and relax me)

as for my most influential albums in my life:
1.) Flying Lotus - Los Angeles
2.) Quasimoto - The Further Adventures
3.) Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced?
4.) Blockhead - The Music Scene (couldn't leave this one out)
