VARIOUS ARTISTS - NEW SCHOOL VS. OLD SCHOOL, VOL. 2

Once again Jive Electro digs into the classic Jive Records catalog and transports it into the future. New School Vs. Old School (Vol.2) features today's hottest electronic producers and remixers including Groove Armada, The Propellerheads, Lionrock, Mark Pritchard of Global Communications, Adrian Utley of Portishead, DJ Dan, Pimpjuice, Rabbit In The Moon, Freq Nasty, Hardknox, Jackal And Hyde and Utah Saints. This cutting-edge lineup is further enhanced by the staying power of such blockbuster acts as Kid Rock, Stone Roses, A Tribe Called Quest, Boogie Down Productions, KRS-One and Fu-Schnickens. As in volume one of the series, classic cuts are transformed into New School jams. The names are all well known to say the least_The Propellerheads need no introduction to anyone familiar with electronica while Rabbit In The Moon continues to be the biggest live act on the US Rave scene. The Utah Saints have sold over 500,000 copies of their debut album and Groove Armada is enjoying a runaway smash hit with "I See You Baby" that can currently be seen on MTV. Pimpjuice have turned out slammin' club mixes for both Britney Spears and Steps while DJ Dan is currently the most popular DJ on the American Rave scene. A Tribe Called Quest are multi-platinum alterna-rap innovators and Kid Rock has gone on to take over the world a decade after his Jive debut was released. The Stone Roses led the British guitar-pop movement of the 80's and 90's while BDP and KRS-One educated the world about life on the streets, churning out a string of gold records in the process. With more cohesion, variety and risk-taking than its predecessor, New School Vs. Old School Vol.2 is bound to appeal to an even wider audience than its successful counterpart.
