DJ Fuzz: Mixology 3 (Mixology/Warner)

This marks DJ Fuzz’s final chapter in the Mixology series, a mixtape collection that will definitely go down in history as one of the most successful by a local DJ. Throughout the series, you can hear the maturity and progression from this hip hop deck whiz, and this final chapter is no less awesome with a star-studded line-up that includes Mizz Nina, Altimet, Sona One, Vandal, Thailand’s Big Calo and Dandee, Brunei’s MicBandits, Nigeria’s Young Stunna, American artists Stix and Pryme Status, and even a comeback from Reefa. Indie darling Noh from Hujan lends his vocal to the album’s 1st single ‘Selamat Pagi Sayang’, which possess the same laidback vibe as his jazzy pop duet with Mizz Nina on ‘Kurnia’. The follow-up single from Mixology 3 features another favourite in the Malay scene, Aizat Amdan, on a haunting track called ‘Dimanapun Engkau Berada’. One of the best treats come at the end of the album in the form of ‘Oriental Assault’ by Stylustiks, the turntablist crew that Fuzz is a part of with DJ Cza and DJ Uno. You can definitely feel Fuzz’s different approach on each track and it’s obvious that the DJ was influenced by various types of music when working on the album. A brilliant effort from DJ Fuzz; other Malaysian hip hop DJs better take note.
