Mick's Tape is an album from UK group Cassetteboy. [2]
The album contains some mashup work by Cassetteboy, but also samples other tracks by various artists. Tracks by other artists include Squarepusher's "The Exploding Psychology", "Good Morning! How are you? Shut up!" by Ivor Cutler and "I Hear Voices" by MF Doom. Nearly all tracks not by Cassetteboy have been altered in some way, with the exception of "The Exploding Psychology". Several of the titles of the tracks allude to their contents, such as "Sirdy Bong", which is a Drum n' Bass remix of the "Birdy Song", and "The Formby Goes Out The Window" which samples George Formby's rendition of "Banjo Boy".
BBC Music called the album a "generally entertaining and pretty risqué listening experience". [3] The Independent wrote: "Thanks, then, to Cassetteboy for restoring the mix-tape to its more entertaining, inventive origins in hip-hop patchworks like Paul's Boutique and 3 Feet High and Rising''. [4]

Madvillain was an American hip hop duo consisting of two MCs and producers, MF Doom and Madlib. Their only album, Madvillainy, earned critical acclaim and cult popularity, widely regarded as one of the greatest rap albums of all time and a benchmark record for alternative hip hop. Their intricate rhymes and lyrics, short song structures and use of obscure, stylistically diverse samples made for a sound that was generally unfriendly to commercial radio but was lauded for its influence on underground rap. A follow-up album to Madvillainy was rumored to be in production at various times since the late 2000s, but no further original material has surfaced from the duo since 2010, and MF Doom's death in 2020 has left the future of the project uncertain.
