"This is a massive three disc set, although I suspect if they used dvd9's they could have squeezed it onto two discs. It chronicles his career through music videos, live performances, studio sessions, interviews (of Krush and others), and assorted clips Krush's work from 1994 to 2006. He must of carried a video camera with him from the start because there is tons of footage from all kinds of locations, but not professional footage. Krush comes off as a deep conscientious artistic pleasant and intense hip hop artist. His work is displayed prominently with plenty of music contained on the discs.

If you are a fan of his music, you'll love this beautifully packaged set. And if you are new to his music but love hip hop, you'll find plenty to enjoy here. If you don't know Krush and don't like hip hop, why are you reading this review?

Krush really is a master DJ and this is a masterful review of 12 years of work. And Krush, MORE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLEASE!"

You've heard it all before

"I'm a tremendous fan of DJ Krush and was disappointed by this box set. Most of the material is from Meiso and Milight, I already own the cds and felt it was a little redundant to see live footage, music videos and studio recordings of songs I already owned. I was hoping for b-sides, demos, unreleased songs or videotaped freestyles, but did not receive any of that. I was also hoping to hear some more insight into who the esoteric DJ Krush really is, but the interviews he gives are pretty impersonal and boring.
However, I am, like I said, a massive fan. I take some joy in owning material that could be considered rare or a collector's piece. I would recommend buying his cd's instead of this, but it might be nice to throw this dvd on in the background of a house party. This dvd is NOT a must-have, it is more of a luxury to add to a collection."
