Reviews Customer Reviews for Built From Scratch      X-Ecutioners - Built From Scratch      Rating:      Classic album. These guys ARE nasty on the turntables, one of the best. They put together the most complete and ILL sounding tracks ever. Tracks like "A Journey Into Sound" its frickin amazing. These guys got mad skills on the turntables and putting together beats, hands down. If you hate on this, you dont know real skill on this sh** cause these guys are the realness. One of their first albums to be released, and I recommend you go pick this up right now, if you like Turntablism, and Hip Hop. Because some of the joints on here got rapping on them, and most are beats included with some ILL scratching. Get this now.

Editorial Reviews for Built From Scratch Audio Cd      Amazon.com      The follow-up to the X-Ecutioners' revolutionary debut is well worth the five-year wait. It's bigger, badder, and even more technically proficient than its predecessor, weighing in at 20 tracks constructed from scratches, skits, beat juggles, flares and fades, cuts, pitch plays, studio trickery, and live drums and guitar (played by the DJs). MC performances come courtesy of M.O.P, Kool G Rap, Large Professor, and Pharoahe Monch, and there are DJ collabs with Premier, Dan the Automator, the Beat Junkies, and Triple Threat, as well as an unlikely but successful pairing with Mike Shinoda and Mr. Hahn of Linkin Park fame. It's a quality piece of work, with old- and new-school references liberally scattered throughout (check the updates of Marley Marl's "Marley Scratch," Whiz Kid's "Play That Beat Mr. DJ," and Tom Tom Club's "Genius of Love"). A must. --Paul Sullivan
