I've been reading about the history of Coney Island lately, home of the world's first amusement parks, and its early years remind me of Bizarre Ride. Originally these parks were created for adults as small cities of complete fantasy with all sorts...
expand review of lavish and over the top cool shit. You went to Coney when you wanted to forget reality, society and city life. One of these parks developed a Midget City called Lilliputia. Midgets and dwarves from all over the world were invited to live for free in a Victorian half size midget city. They even had their own Parliament, laws and governors and gave each other all sorts of titles and honors. But its real claim to fame was Lilliputia's open door to all things "perverted." Normal societal morals and behavior were ignored and the place was complete midget orgy mayhem. The missing link is finally back on vinyl in a great repress with gatefold cover, all the art and 2LPs. There's still a reason to hunt for the original though cuz it came with purple and yellow vinyl. With rollercoasters: Passin Me By, Otha Fish, Pack The Pipe, Oh Shit, Im That Type of Nigga, On the DL, Soulflower, Ya Mama and all the rest of the favorites. -the mgmnt

Peaches remixing Tone-Loc's "Wild Thing(1)"? That's a recipe for a sureshot party starter (props to Rick Ross for "curating" this remix). Drunk females love getting hype to raps they know the words too (or at least the hooks), and all of...
expand review 'em secretly wanna be as slutty as Peaches so it's a win-win situation. As for the production, Peaches keeps the vibe of the OG intact, complete with the heavy beathin' and mean guitar licks, but rebuilds it with some grimey, distorted synths and wicked break downs, plus a couple nasty verses to keep it spicy. A worthy update to an already classic party jam. Includes main, radio edit, instrumental, acapella(1), and the bizarre Tez Beatbox Version(2). -snackmaster

The Pharcyde's the second LP, the seriously tardy Labcabincalifornia, never got the love it deserved; several quality cuts got swallowed up in the critical backwash. In a wonderful example of the generosity of the vinyl gods, you get a hefty portion of...
expand review them here on one single. I don't know if this thing ever came out officially; I got it early '96 on white label (ed.note: wow, the Monk stumped! JMS says it came out like this). Jay Dee's remixes are maybe what you kids are after, the Michael McDonald-jacked "Runnin" remix is cool, and "Y" is warmup/lounge-ready in both the Jay remix and album mix. The Beatminerz remix of "Drop" is where it's at for me tho, thumping on some real mid-'90s BK shit. Did y'all grab the Asha Pulthi joint they sampled when we had it? Anyhow, I wrote enough about this thing. Pick it up or move on. -monk
