Chris Read to Stockholm

THE DIARY VOLUME 1.5
“This CD just shows how much Chris Read knows about historic Hip Hop production techniques - Its just a shame he wasn’t creating this stuff during the eras he’s covering as we would probably rate the man as being up there with Paul C, Pete Rock, Premier and all! - I can’t think of another Hip Hop CD I’ve played so much in years”
(Andy Smith – Portishead)  

“Chris continues the rap anthology concept of his super-dope ‘The Diary’ megamix in the shape of a remix project, re-lacing acapellas from 89-2009 with historically accurate beats. An interesting project which says as much about Chris’s personal listening habits and production style preferences as it does rap’s progression through the years. ‘The Diary 1.5′ serves as a great platform for Chris to showcase his ample beat-making skills whilst referencing those who’ve inspired him.”
(DJ Woody – Former World ITF Champion)

“Crazy! This is Rap History in the making. Chris proves his production skills on this one to the fullest. A wonderful and refreshing journey through all eras of hip hop. Double thumbs up!”
(Marc Hype – Former ITF Champion)

“Wicked! The perfect companion to The Diary Mixtape. Shows an impressive knowledge of sounds from all eras.”
(Mr Thing – Former World DMC Team Champion)

“I’m always a fan of Chris’s stuff. A lot of hard work put into this … which pays off.”
(DJ Yoda – Genuine Records)
