Flagrant Fowl's first record of remixes was majorly slept-on. Here's another chance to get in early with some seriously hyped tracks that have been blasting off the decks of The Rub, Scottie B, Them Jeans, and others. There's so much madness, it's hard to pick where to start. I'll start with the R.Kelly "Ignition" section. First up, Pocketknife blends the original "Ignition" over "Wild Thing" beats; this is a staple material for the clubs. Next, Cousin Cole comes in with a B-More remix of the "Ignition" remix, aka one of the greatest modern rnb songs ever. In a delicious twist of genres, Cousin Cole edits up the Jesus And Mary Chain classic "Just Like Honey," which gained a second life through the Lost In Translation OST. Pocketknife flips Suicide's "Ghost Riders," which was also sampled recently by MIA for her single "Born Free." The "Black Betty" B-More remix, by Cole, is probably the most hyped track on here, as it's been getting tons of advance play. Lastly, check the "My Love" B-More edit, that puts a tongue-in-cheek spin on the fervor that resulted from the initial radio leak of that song. 7 tracks in all, recommended.
