I doubt that Madlib uses the Ultimate Breaks albums. When I visited the Stones Throw headquarters last year - where Madlib records most of his records - the entire two story house and basement was lined (top to bottom) with vinyl and Ultimate Breaks was not among them. I know that doesn't refute that altogether, but he definitely has a large catalog at his disposal.

And I probably prefer Madvillain.

Off-topic: his production on the new De La single is unexpected.

I guess. But I find the whole concept of being a loopdigger to be lame, and even lamer those who police the loopdiggers a la your pretty big LA beatdigger. Cause really, who cares?

but that would mean that claiming to be a loopdigga and then not engage in the digga of the loop would be even more lame. however, i've been around the internet long enough to take anything I hear third hand with a shitload of salt.

so apparently Madlib has also made a broken beat record?

"In the liner notes, he namechecks 4 Hero, IG Culture, Carl Craig, Theo Parrish, and 'the whole West London Sound,' but this is no mere tribute record."

wtf mate

three years pass...

as far as i'm concerned both records employ unconventional lyricism over trademark Madlib beats

What is a ''trademark Madlib beat,'' i.e., what's so distinctive about it?

one year passes...

madvillain is better just for the fact it doesnt have madlib rapping on it.

ps - what are peoples thoughts on madvillainy 2 (the madlib remixes at least, not the album proper)? i really wanted to like it but thought it was a bit ho-hum.
