DJ Godfather improves slightly on the third volume of this mix series, to the point of near perfection. Gone are the out of place hip-hop sets that concluded the two preceding volumes, and he manages to present a wider variety of tracks here, with a fun emphasis on booty tracks. The inclusion of tracks by his closest competitor in Detroit's ghettotech scene,
DJ Assault, only strengths the mix. Tracks such as "Ass-N-Titties" and "Shake It Baby," along with a few other
Assault classics, fit in perfectly with
Godfather's style. Furthermore,
Godfather doesn't let his peer steal the show and concludes the set with a great track of his own, "Player Haters in Dis House." The inclusion of Detroit electro classics such as
Model 500's "No UFOs" -- sounding like it's being spun at 45 rpm rather than 33 -- only brings more interesting moments to the set. So rather than functioning as strictly a great up-tempo dance mix -- which it no doubt is -- this volume also has more than a few noteworthy moments for trainspotters as well, making it one of the best recorded testaments of Detroit's post-modern style of ghettotech DJing. ~ Jason Birchmeier
