Over the last 15 years Bomb Hip-Hop's influence and contribution to the promotion of the four elements of hip-hop (dj, mc, breaking, graffiti) is undeniable. Bomb has evolved since it's humble beginnings in 1991 as a hip-hop publication to "one of the fifteen independent labels that matter" according to Rolling Stone. Bomb???s Return of the DJ series was ranked by Spin Magazine as number 25 in their ???The 90 Greatest Albums of the 90???s???. Having been credited with the revival of the D.J. as an artist in their own right for the Return of the DJ series (featured in the movie Scratch playing on the Sundance channel and available on DVD) the label is also known for spotlighting Hip-Hop from around the world. http://www.bombhiphop.comhttp://www.myspace.com/bombhiphop???David Paul and Bomb Hip-Hop have helped define one of the most exciting forms of music in the ???90s: turntablism??? - Pulse Magazine???David Paul has been a trendsetter for 10 years, his projects have defined genres and jump-started now legendary careers??? - SF Weekly???Starting in 1991 as a ???zine and later evolving into a full-fledged record label, Bomb put San Francisco on the underground hip-hop map. The label was also one of the first to champion deejaying as an art form with it???s groundbreaking Return of the DJ compilations.??? - Stance Magazine "Bomb dedicated itself to what's now called true school aesthetics, establishing a blueprint since emulated by numerous others - including Def Jux, ABB, Warp, Quannum, Revenge and Battle Axe... one even has to wonder if Shadow's Entroducing would have been widely lauded without Bomb's precedent-setting Return of the DJ comp." - XLR8R Magazine
