5.0 out of 5 stars like butta on yo' breakfast toast, Dec 15 1999
By dreitman@hamilton.edu - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: V1 Live At The Future Primitiv (Audio CD)
i already owned mixmaster mike's "anti-theft device". while that record was decent, (and i certainly don't doubt his skillz as a turntablist), i found it too cerebral and experimental to really be able to get DOWN to: it wasn't quite as stereo-friendly (as opposed to live) as i would have liked. so i was skeptical about the tightness of shortkut and cut chemist. WOW! within 2 minutes of this album, i was outta my chair and popping windmills (in my head, at least). terrific. i recognize one of the tracks from the J5 record, the one with the science professor reciting the elements ("niacin: NH+1"). for some reason, there's nothing cooler than sampling old white males. the only flaw of this album (if you want to call it a flaw) is that i wasn't sure which DJ was doing what. maybe this is a good thing? bottom line, if you like sampling, addidas flailing in the air in a clockwise formation, and appreciate turntablism at its finest, you will be doing yourself a solid in picking this bad boy up.

5.0 out of 5 stars A True Classic - REALLY, Dec 5 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: V1 Live At The Future Primitiv (Audio CD)
Why is this recording a classic? Aside from the music itself, this album will be remembered in the underground archives as a classic for a reason stated in it's title: Cut Chemist meets Shortkut. This technically superb vinyl-shredding session was UNREHEARSED- Cut Chemist and Shortkut had NEVER met prior to this performance. And though their set starts off with a bit of back-and-forth warm ups, the two culprits quickly begin interacting like they had been performing together for years. Without knowing that the two had never met each other before this performance, let alone rehearsed the set, one would have no trouble believing that this recording was the result of a well-planned, thought out collaboration. And as for the music itself, Cut Chemist (formerly of Ozzomatli and currently one-half of the DJ team behind The Jurrasic Five) and Shortkut (member of both The Invisible Skratch Piklz and Beat Junkies turntable crews) combine to create a very compatible mix of old-school and new-school hip-hop and soul tunes, beats, and breaks, top-notch scratching and beat-mixing/juggling, and a wide variety of comical, scientific, and downright out-of-the-blue vocal samples. This is an outrageously clever, fresh, on-point head bobbing DJ set. If you're checking out this album, you probably have some disposition toward hip-hop and/or DJ mixes/live sets. I say to you: This one is a MUST have.

5.0 out of 5 stars Turntablism at its finest, April 19 2001
By Douglas C. Reinhardt - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: V1 Live At The Future Primitiv (Audio CD)
This album is quite simply, mind blowing. It should be handed out to people who are getting into real hip-hop, to show them what a real DJ does at a show. Also the album is a nice treat for those who haven't been forunate enough to see DJ Shortkut or Cut Chemist live at a show in person, let alone, see the two of them battle live in person. Actually, the album kind of ruined my experince of seeing Cut Chemist battling Shortkut in person because the album made me want to see more than the alotted twenty five minutes, I wish they could have gone on for hours and once you starting listening to this record, you will too want to listen to it for hours on end.
