Krush (album)
Krush is the debut studio album by Japanese hip hop producer DJ Krush. It was released on January 21, 1994 in Japan by Triad – an imprint of Nippon Columbia – and Chance Records. Shadow Records released the album in the United States in 1995. Critical reception. Ned Raggett of AllMusic found DJ Krush's production "spare but effective, launching grooves that unfold just enough over the course of his tracks, edgy and slightly unnerving." Raggett wrote that DJ Krush "has a definite sound and style", but "also knows how to create any number of variations or twists with it , with fine results." Reviewing the album for "Trouser Press", Mark Kemp dubbed "Krush" "a milestone, a dizzying collision of genres." Peter Shapiro, writing in "Drum 'n' Bass: The Rough Guide" (1999), said that it hinted at "the more effective monochromaticism" of DJ Krush's later music. In 2021, "Krush" was ranked at number 19 on "Slant Magazine"s list of the best trip hop albums of all time. Track listing. Notes Sample credits Personnel.
