About Ninja Cuts 3: Funkungfusion

Amazon.com Ninja Tune is one of the few labels that still appreciate the meaning of the scratch and the funk: mixing things up with vehemence and style. That's not to say that the label's music hasn't grown increasingly loungy, as evidenced on this uniformly fine, if slightly anonymous, 30-track, 2-CD compilation. Or it could merely mean that the language of hip-hop no longer causes psychic confusion so much as nostalgic memories. Certainly the sound of a typewriter in Kid Koala & Money Mark's "Carpal Tunnel" is as antiquated as a Run-DMC album. Tracks from recent signings Dynamique and Roots Manuva, among others, are brand new and, for the moment, exclusive, while many (including "Body Lockers," Chocolate Weasel's Jaco Pastorius imitation) can be found elsewhere, so research before spending. --D. Strauss Review Funkungfusion is the first collection from the Ninja Tune camp in quite some time and boy, is it a whopper! A double-disc set compiling tracks from ... Mixmaster Morris ... Irresistible Force ... DJ Food, Funki Porcini, DJ Vadim, and Herbaliser. The new school offers up some infectious grooves from the likes of Chocolate Weasel ... Kid Koala and Money Mark. Plus, there is Luke Vibert.... As an indie dance label ... Ninja Tune's Funkungfusion is testament to the label's future-forward vision. -- URB This double-disc, 30-track compilation offers up a choice selection from every artist who records for the label. ...[T]his compilation works on two levels: as an introduction to the label it’s essential, and for those already familiar with Ninja Tune it’s a welcome platter perfect for late night chill sessions. -- Option
