It's short but brilliant. Very different than most other stuff
you'll see posted to the list. The song "Original Bedroom Rockers"
pretty much sums up this album's general vibe. The third track is
especially wicked with its live drums and building momentum. It sounds
kinda like really upbeat lounge music for your bedroom.

I love this album (as I continue to sound like a babbling moron).
It is much more diverse than any other drum n'bass album, as the songs
don't last interminably long and the beat never stagnates. Instead the
songs have real harmonies and subtly shifting bass lines which make it a
real head-nodding excursion. Get this and then get their import CD of
remixes.

Avoid this record. Some good tracks, but better to just buy the
damn albums.

Surprisingly good. Several superior tracks, some pretty solid,
and some shit. The tracks by non-famous bands are usually excellent.
The tracks by famous bands are usually not. But hey, LFO shows up on it
so you have to get it. But overall it is better than 2 and 3, and just a
little shy of 1.

Again a hit or miss proposition. Some are very good, including
the hard to find Hawke and Nev. Himadri turns in a smashing track, but
the Detroit contingent really don't stand out (except for Eddie "Flashin"
Fowlkes). But it is an solid compilation to show what the US is capable
of (2 years ago).
