Dunfyboy's Ninja Mix

Link to MediaFire.

There's plenty I don't like about Ninja Tune. Playing the same drum loop over and over for 5 minutes with the odd sample or synth thrown in for a couple of bars isn't downbeat, it's just boring. Dropping a drum beat that's four times as fast as the rest of the track might be clever or innovative if the track was decent to start with, otherwise it just comes across as a self-indulgent waste of time. I swear a lot of there stuff would never have got past the demo stage if it wasn't on Ninja. Some of their artists just don't do anything for me, but because they're a "cool" label, there's always going to be some people (you know who you are!) who will buy it.

So, why do a mix of Ninja Tune? Because some of their stuff is as good as you'll find anywhere. This mix has all my favourite tracks from Ninja and their off-shoots Big Dada and Ntone. Besides, I want to be cool too :)

Of course, this is all just my opinion. You might think this whole mix is crap. But what if it's not? Get downloading and leave a comment either way.
