VA - Last Night A DJ Saved My Live (2000)

Coinciding with the release of the book of the same title, the tracks have been specially chosen to represent various influences on the history of DJing & like the book, the album aims to tell a story, picking key records from various eras & genres presenting Jamaican reggae, American R&B, hip-hop, disco, and left-field items that played various roles in the history of record spinning.

The name may seems it`s about modern electronic dancefloor music but it´s rather the basis of our contemporary clubbing music and nightlife culture.
