Not too long I think, I bought it about a fortnight ago.

The two artists are Zend Avesta and Extra Lucid who feature on the very
fine "Combat Rock" E.P. (2*12") on Source records, tracks from which
appear on the SourceLab 2 compilation album.

It has in the U.K., it appears to have been released in France quite a
while back (in interviews, DJ Cam said he'd finished it very early last
year and it appeared in various top album lists for 1996.)

very good though, it is a mixture of many different modern styles, e.g.
jungle, house and instrumental hip-hop and is quite different from what
I'd expected but well worth the purchase (In my opinion).
