Review Cassetteboy, postmodern connoisseurs of bootleg cut-up culture and Chris Morris style satire, have gained a cult following with the release of underground material such as The Parker Tapes and Inside A Whale's Cock.Their formula is philosophically quite simple: recording famous people and making it sound like they're talking about sex or drugs. But the methodology is painstakingly punctilious due to the heavy editing involved.Following the same path as The Parker Tapes, Micks Tape the duo's first proper foray out of the deep underground - features the same blend of diverse music and controversial celeb cut-ups, offering a quite unique mixtape experience.How controversial? Well, one minute Tiff Needel is advising us on how to shop around for a crack whore; the next, a history teacher is telling us how the principal idea behind London Underground was to connect all the mainline stations together using a large network of sewers.In between a disparate but solid array of records from the likes of MF Doom, Fela Kuti, Squarepusher and Fennesz, Queen Victoria also grows testicles while Jamie Oliver admits to being friendless and not too deep. David Bowie, meanwhile, is heard singing "Here I am... shitting in a tin-can".Of course this can all be construed as a series of jumped up knob gags or as subversive genius, depending on your sense of humour. But the techniques employed hark back to the fast-paced hip hop plunderphonics that have informed everyone from Prince Paul and Coldcut to Double Dee as well as Steinski and Quasimoto, making for a generally entertaining and pretty risquélistening experience. --Jack SmithFind more music at the BBC This link will take you off in a new window

It's great. Complete bargain
Heard this playing in a student bar. We completely stopped our conversation to listen to it. It's great. Complete bargain.

Rubbish
A big disappointment. Cassetteboy used to be funny, but here the jokes are cheap and trite. The old, choppy musical interludes that used to define the Cassetteboy sound are gone, expanded into nearly full-length tracks, which makes the disc sound more like somebody's mix tape than a new album.Try harder boys.

cassette boy...takes the mick!
I've got all the cassette boy stuff i could find. I loved his other cd's. The parker tapes was great, inside a whales cock even better. But if you are looking for the hilarious, brilliant mixes and cut 'n' pastes like the big brother and news reader skits on the other cd's you might be disappointed. Dont get me wrong there are some funny skits on here and still Cassette boy's mastery of cuttin' and pastin' is amazin, but its not quite as good.On the other hand it is very well mixed with some quality musicial offerings which fill in the bits inbetween far better than in the previous offerings.If you are in the mood for laughter skip to the skits and listen to golfers talking about whacking golf balls with their family jewels or a man describing the important elements of a "ho". the third track is also terrific for this. With Cassette boy poking fun at himself/themselves.If you are in the mood for chillin' the music is also fantastic and does not need skipping as it may have done before. To conclude Cassette boy has grown up, matured, but he still knows how to take the mick...go cop it!
