and badly mixed too - if i were DB i'd be embarrassed to have my name on that. The music on it was fabu (even if each track is only on for a fucking minute and a half) but the mixing was downright *weak*. Luckily DB makes up for it on his latest mixed venture 'acid resistant' (on sm:)e), nice hard serious acid business and mixed well..i'd say DB should stay away from breaks if i hadn't heard him spin - he's pretty durn good...the highlight of the last set i saw him spin was him mixing 'The Bouncer' and 'Energy Flash' back and forth and at the same time - the two tracks sounded *amazing* together. He gets the serious two big ups for dat..:D mikebee

mmhmm. ragga (or true 'jungle' if you want) gets on my nerves and i find it infinitely boring. 'Law of the Jungle' was a complete bore.

yeh, second on that 4 hero recommendation and a BIG confirmation on the A Guy Called Gerald album..i heard it in a shop and and it is *amazing* - completely innovative and truly pushing jungle in new directions. when i was told what the incredible sounds coming from the speakers were, i was like, 'woooooooaaaaah.' - i still don't have a copy of this but i am *dying* to get one.. mikebee
