Very Special People - Very Special People Compilation (2004)

For today's release we have something "very special". The compilation / self titled album Very Special People is a showcase of some of Los Angeles' most talented hip hop acts, performing over live instruments and production by James Morris (you've heard his work on such songs as "Lake Release" by G&E and "B-Boy Real McCoy" by Jizzm featuring The A-Team).

You'll experience such amazing voices as Neila, Abstract Rude, AWOL One, Acid Reign and Existereo transforming funky instrumentals into instant classics. Almost all of these songs are above average in quality and undeniably catchy; this album is most definitely a keeper.

Thanks to Devo for sharing this originally, I believe it deserves another online debut. Until next week!

Today's post is an old compilation from the late great Hue Records entitled "Virtual DJ Set For Virtual Night." I don't know much about this release, so any further info on it would be appreciated. What I can say is that it's a nice little collection of tracks from artists who shared Hue distribution in the 2000s. 

There's nothing exclusive on the project, but it's hard to ignore the melodic nostalgic feels of a Hue compilation! Furthermore, the last track on the project, Virtue's (now F. Virtue) "Superhero Blues" (featuring Nolto) isn't available anywhere online that I could find. The track is borrowed from Virtue's debut album "Growing Pains." That great album is long lost (I have the physical CD version which I'll try to rip at some point - in addition to Nolto it features the likes of Sims of Doomtree and The Dirty Sample) but "Virtual DJ Set For Virtual Night" at least gives us a sample (and it's a good one as the track is the best off either project imo.)

I always loved Hue Records and the work they did. Last I heard, Shin was releasing folk projects in Japan? Peep the compilation below!
