In which Busdriver takes three of the most gifted US remixer/producers around and let's them loose on a batch of his astonishing verbals...

Scott Herren aka Prefuse 73 should need no introduction. The Barca-based Warp artist is widely credited with the invention of glitched out, intricate hip hop and is about to release a new album featuring everyone from Ghostface and Gza to El-P to Broadcast. He did a mix because Bus' asked him to.

Tunrtablist/producer D-Styles holds the distinction of having been a member of both the legendary World Famous Beat Junkies and the equally legendary Invizbl Skratch Picklz. He also provided the scratches for Busdriver's previous work on "Temporary Forever" and "Cosmic Cleavage". His mix was recorded using only a tape machine and the ones and twos...

Nobody aka Elvin Estela has released a number of critically acclaimed records through SF's Ubiquity Records, all with an introspective, spaced out, psych feel which you might expect to contrast with 'Driver's high octane lyrical approach, but actually melds rather
beautifully, as you'll hear on this remix...

Super MC, super remixes, super package. Enjoy!
