AMG Review of Spin This

MacKenzie Wilson
All Music Guide

~Spin magazine's star-studded collection Spin This captures some of 2001's mainstream mainstays and critic darlings for something quite fashionable. It's a delectable song selection, a vast variety showcasing eclectic dance beats from Moby, Paul Oakenfold, and Basement Jaxx inside tougher modern rock cuts by P.O.D., Deftones, and Disturbed. Hip-hop favorites like Gangstarr and D-12 are also included. A definitive mix for the raging pop teenager and the aged music hipster, Spin This includes a little bit of everything without being overindulgent. It's a decent look at some of the year's most enigmatic faces and some of the most critical contributions to music.
