The Mo'Wax compilation that was so much bigger than the sum of its parts. Headz was the first major instrumental hip hop compilation to really hit the big time (with all due respect to the awesome Ninja Tune compilations that pre-date it). I wanted to revisit it to see what still sounded good, and ended up making this mix including every track from the original Headz compilation, plus the skits that were only on the vinyl version. For a compilation from 1994, it still sounds pretty fresh.
