Zero 7 is one of my favorite bands of late. Everytime I make a new mix, somehow they always end up in it. And it'll be a different song each time, too. They're newest one, When It Falls, is equally as good as Simple Things.

Diplo's Florida is a great one, too. Similar DJ work in the Shadow/RJD2 vein. Very nice work.

word man--you know i was thinking "i wonder if this is just one of Jay's best albums", because I've heard many of the original versions, and reallly dig them as well. I should know that anything that doesn't get heavy radio play is something that I'll really enjoy. :) I'm wondering if i'll end up doing the same thing with the rest of the tracks on the album--I heard the original "99 problems" and i wasn't feeling the track much, but the more i hear it, the more it really is a superior track...although i'm torn as to whether i dig 9ths or Rick's mixes...

ima look around for the white album...

my fave black album remix is definitely the white albulum (remixed by kno of the cunninlynguists)... i'll hook you up with some tracks if you're interested. the beats on that album are bananas and they really mesh well with jay-z. with that said, i really do like the original album a lot as well. i think jay has a very good knack for picking beats that he will sound fresh over, commercial appeal or not. fact is, none of the songs on there got huge widespread radio play (to the level of big pimpin/i just wanna love u/h to the izzo) besides dirt off your shoulder - and yet i think it was his best album to date alongside reasonable doubt.
