In a time before CDJ loop buttons and stone-cold arrangement techniques, bonus beats and beat records were a vital tool for aspiring, working and tone-deaf DJs. The third release in an unofficial beat-tracks sublabel (se Redshape and Todd Osborn for further reference) “Rhythm Trainx Vol 1″ tries to breathe new life into that lost craft with an all-star cast: Manuel Tur, I:Cube, Blank Spanner, Disco Nihilist, Âme and Radio Slave. All in different BPM, varying styles and (un)fortunately a bit more than simple kick-drum-hi-hat patterns. Built to last.
