Review of Paul Oakenfold's - Bust a Groove

I downloaded 90% of the songs off audiogalaxy. Good thing i listened to them before i went ahead to buy it. ATTENTION for oakey fans: THIS IS NOT OAKEY's CURRENT STYLE OR SOUND. The entire CD is based on loops and old school samples probably for rap djs. There about 10 tracks that are scratching.

If you are expecting to hear trance, dont go near this album. Its not meant to be his typical album. He made this 10 years ago. This albums is useless in my opinion, and he should have just not released this album at all.

My rating: 0.2 out of 5

Recommendation: dont get it!

Yeah it is really old. There wasnt really any point for oakey to really release an album. He would have been better to release it on 12" as dj tools.

well if its as hip hoppy as you say, it could be good freestyling material- l just dont know/
