No Categories, the latest compilation from San Francisco's consistently boss Ubiquity label boasts two CDs chock full of what the label has become known for: laid-back beats, rare-groove acid jazz, and deeply funky hip-hop. Highlights? We've got highlights: Kool Keith and Automator kick things off with "A Better Tomorrow," a glimpse into the hip-hop future. Bugs, a San Francisco electronics duo, mix things up with a cut-and-paste track that jumps into psychedelic hyperspace in the blink of an eye. Skyjuice get into "A.D.I.D.A.S." (yep, it's about sneakers), a dubbed-out hip-hop groove. Bobby Matos chills things out with a nitrogen-cooled acid-jazz vamp. Other acts, including Slide Five, DJ Wally and Swingsett, Dave Pike, Pucho and the Group, and Live and Direkt, all turn in high-quality tracks. The result is a set of music intently locked into a next-wave groove both jazzlike and beat-filled. Hang on. --S. Duda
