Mr. Scruff – Donkey Ride & Giant Pickle

June 26th, 2008 written by jeej

Fresh produce for the first time in what seems an age, Mr. Scruff is back with a brand new vinyl/mp3 series under the name Ninja Tuna!

Set to be a series of EPs released on Ninja Tune throughout 2008, the first release is Donkey Ride & Giant Pickle – the former of which was co-produced by Quantic. It is available now and you can purchase direct from the Mr. Scruff site or from any reputable retailer, I suppose!

If the first in this series is anything to go by, then the rest will be gold. It’s a welcome return from Scruff – delivering that blend of dancefloor beats with trademark melodies. Plus the contribution by Quantic on the catchy Donkey Ride is perhaps even better than 2006’s Giraffe Walk.

You're quite right mate. I got my track names muddled. I've corrected it now - cheers for spotting it.

Excuse my smart-ass-ness, but I think Quantic contributed to Donkey Ride, The track also features in the "You don't know ninja tune" compilation (3x cd). If I had to guess he's responsible for the latin piano part. :)
It also says so on mr scruffs site (the one you linked).
