Notes: The mastermind behind Stones Throw is behind the eclectic tracklist on one of the most unusual holiday-themed compilations of all-time. PEANUT BUTTER WOLF PRESENTS: BADD SANTA has a fair dose of old-school hip-hop (not the tracks you might expect, though) but the tracklist also moves all over the spectrum. From acid jazz to new wave to dub reggae to noise pop, BADD SANTA has it all. Super Jay, Cocoa Tea, Georgia Anne Muldrow, 69 Boyz and Quad City DJ's, James Brown, and Vince Guaraldi are just a few of the artists featured. A holiday collection from the funky fringe, Badd Santa is a collection of Christmas songs -- plus one polyrhythmic Kwanza number -- compiled by left-field hip-hop producer and Stones Throw label owner Peanut Butter Wolf. Old-school hip-hop is represented by b-boys like Super J and the long lost Scoopy, while the Quad City DJ's bring the booty music for a track that's basically "Whoop! There Santa Is!." The soul is brought by the Soul-Saints Orchestra's slow roller "Santa's Got a Bag of Soul" and James Brown's "Go Power at Christmas Time," which Peanut Butter Wolf points out in the liner notes is a much more satisfying track than the usual choices for JB ("Soulful Christmas" and "Santa Goes Straight to the Ghetto"). Rounding out the set are a sweet reggae number from Cocoa Tea, childhood memories of Peanuts' television specials by way of Vince Guaraldi, a back to the future throwback with '60s synth man Bruce Haack, plus a handful of even more eccentric cuts including the very ugly "My Lovely Christmas" from Baron Zen. File this fascinating oddball between Run-D.M.C.'s "Christmas in Hollis" and the John Waters Christmas album. ~ David Jeffries
