The Returners - Mix-CD Hosted By Doujah Raze



The Returners are another glimmering example of just how much European Hip-Hop and specifically, European Hip-Hop producers have caught up to their American counterparts. DJ Chwial and Little make up the Returners and set out a few years ago to do what every new pair of producers/DJ's should; Make good Hip-Hop. It pleases me to inform all those that don't know, they've been making good on there quest for authentic Hip-Hop legitimacy. They have managed to score work doing tracks and remixes for underground staples like El Da Sensei, Supastition and Rasco (Of Cali Agents) as well as doing tracks for some of the newest and brightest underground stars like Dan Johns, L.I.F.E. Long, Bekay and of course, the host of this tape Doujah Raze. The Returners have a wonderfully soulful and thick production sound that truly is a highly coveted import. Full of great drum patterns, nicely chopped soul samples, perfectly timed scratches and resonant basslines, The Returners in my opinion have come to exemplify what Hip-Hop should be all about. I don't know much about Chwial and Little personally, but I do know this; They're dedicated to the true artform and they routinely work with new, up and coming guys that are worthy lyricists. That's Hip-Hop in it's most glorious form man...two guys that love the sound, love the culture and came to America to link up with the real prophets of the genre and are now gettin' down somethin' serious, making a lot of noise on the underground circuit.

"Mix-CD" is a great look into what The Returners are all about, providing exclusive Returner joints as well as new Remixes they've done that outshine the shit outta the originals...any DJ Premier, Dilated Peoples, Marco Polo, Domingo, etc., you'll dig this, mos definitely....
