Details: Product Description Paris Resident DJ And Producer. Amazon.ca Although contemporary French music was overcome with a decidedly house-oriented ethic through the 1990s, DJ Cam and fellow Parisian Kid Loco, aka Jean-Yves Prieur, continued to hold up the hip-hop mantle. Loco's perfectly selected composite of orchestration heavy cuts from labels including Ninja Tune, Warp and Jazz Fudge suits the DJ Kicks ethos perfectly, with head nodding turntablism made interesting by keeping an ear to the instrumentation and staying on the right side of the gap which separates self from over-indulgence. Undoubtedly one of the strongest mixes in the series both musically and technically, it becomes difficult to pick out individual tracks from the wealth of quality however both and Trevor Jackson deserve a mention, the former for their supremely mid-album breather "Blueski" and the latter for his remix excursions as Underdog, providing the THUMP to cuts from Lisa Germand and Acid Jazz perennials Emperor's New Clothes.
