Music reviews of Top Ranking
Music Review: Inspired (And Worth It For "Icarus" Alone!!!)
Rating: 5 Stars
This cd is how modern pop radio should be. Free of barriers. Just play the good stuff, regardless of vintage or "genre". Like Santi White, the woman who inspired this mix, Diplo's selections here are in a word...eclectic. On this disc, you'll hear the ultra-talented Ms. White in context, surrounded by and interpolated with both her peers and her influences, ranging from the Clash, Cutty Ranks, and the Dixie Cups to Trouble Andrew, Shawty Lo, and Tony Matterhorn.
As if that weren't enough, Diplo managed to coax an exclusive track entitled "Icarus" from the star of this little production, and it can only be described as celestial. It sounds as if it were sung by a kabuki/Celtic faerie on another planet, and you can only find it here.
Worth the price of admission for that alone. Buy this disc without hesitation. You won't regret it.

Description of Top Ranking
Diplo meets Santogold in a dub chamber of guest exclusive madness! This collaboration mix CD brings together the best of Diplo's scatterbrained mixtape genius and Santogold's perfectionist ear. They spent almost as much time on this thing as some people do on albums- getting together in the studio to record tracks, recruiting people for guest spots and remixes, going back and forth on what tracks to include - but it's all worth it for this one in a million mixtape. Including 35 tracks with exclusives just for this mix (the Diplo produced "Icaurs" and a live band cover of Bad Brains "Right Brigade"), plus Diplo mixes you won't hear anywhere else (Santogold over Panda Bear?!) plus remixes from Switch & XXXchange, guest verses from Amanda Blank and Kid Cudi, and even some dubplates from Cutty Ranks and then some. Between all this you get Diplo's cool selections and cuts from Santogold influences like Sir Mixalot, Devo, Aretha Franklin, The Clash and many more. The mix is fully tracked and comes in a deluxe digipack.Dance & DJ CDs
