My YMU Playlist Mix: 'Say Hello To Big Dada'

OK, as threatened a couple of posts ago when I talked about Ninja Tune, I got round to doing a playlist of UK hiphop label Big Dada, named, logically enough, 'Say Hello To Big Dada' [YMU link].

Here's the description attached to the playlist: "This UK-based Ninja Tune offshoot releases some of the best alternative hiphop from the UK and US scenes, from mainstay and British hiphop icon Roots Manuva, through the Anticon guys' Clouddead project and the awesome MF Doom alter ego King Geedorah, all the way to new signing Spank Rock's electrotastic 'Rick Rubin', Super duper recommended."

And that's about all I need to say, really, other than the fact that I like how international Big Dada ends up being, since it hoovers up a lot of the alt.hiphop that's just too wired and weird for U.S. labels, as well as important people from elsewhere in the world, such as France's TTC - here's a really good interview with them. Go listen!
