Not your typical turntablist LP. Never Is Now, DJ Swamp's 2001 debut album, doesn't dwell on the dense, technical scratch workouts you might expect from a DMC champion. It leans on solid tracks, unexpected vocals and well-placed scratching instead, with a tongue-in-cheek dark vibe running through West Coast gangsta beats, '80s-inspired electro and rock/hip hop hybrids. "Disintegrator" appeared in the film Orgazmo.

About DJ Swamp

DJ Swamp (Ronald Keys Jr.) won the US DMC Championship in 1996, his first year entering, then toured for four years as Beck's DJ. That same year he started Decadent Records to put out his own scratch tools and breaks, including the skip-proof scratch tool he invented, a format that has been copied ever since. He was featured in the DJ documentary Scratch.
