DJ Rap Learning Curve Release Date: 1999 06 01 Label: Higher Ground/Sony For her major-label debut, DJ Rap chose a surprising angle, given her long history as an excellent drum'n'bass DJ and producer. Learning Curve is a crossover album so complete there's hardly any traces of drum'n'bass left. Instead, most of the album (especially the radically reconfigured American version) is full-fledged '90s dance-pop, closer to Garbage than Grooverider, with the production gloss and sneering vocals to match. What's even more surprising is that, taken for what it is, Learning Curve actually is a solid dance-pop album. Rap's vocals are better than expected, the production is inventive, and while the songs are still quite far from pop, they're much more than dance fodder. It's a radically different move compared to any other jungle artist's major-label debut, but still, it's surprisingly solid given its emphasis on pop. [The British version includes a few more drum'n'bass tracks, including "Beats Like This," "Audio Technica," and a remix of her classic "Spiritual Aura."] John Bush, All Music Guide Tracks: Title Composer Time 1 Bad Girl Tulley, DJ Rap, Love, T. 4:14 2 Good to Be Alive DJ Rap, Baylis 4:18 3 F**k With Your Head Dom T, DJ Rap, Love, Baylis 6:39 4 Bad Behaviour Dom T, DJ Rap, Love 7:07 5 Everyday Girl DJ Rap, Baylis 4:43 6 You Get Around Dom T, DJ Rap, Love, Baylis 5:28 7 Human Kind DJ Rap 4:20 8 Live It for Today DJ Rap, Baylis 5:26 9 Go DJ Rap, Baylis 4:10 10 Stories from Around the World Dom T, DJ Rap, Love 6:58 11 Changes Dom T, DJ Rap, Love 7:15 12 Ordinary Day D., M., DJ Rap 2:27 Releases: Year Type Label 1999 CD Higher Ground/Sony 1999 CD Sony 1998 LP Sony BMG Europe
