Yeah, Grooverider's comp. is the shit! A good representation of older
stuff and newer stuff on his label (Prototype). That Dillinja track -
Silverblade - unh! Gets me every time... The Torque comp. was a
disappointment to most of the people I've talked to about it. Some of the
stuff is OK, but it sounds like they just stuck with their usual formula,
nothing really freash or innovative. I'd only get it if you're a die-hard
No-U-Turn fan. I just realized that I'm speaking with the assumption that
anyone considering buying this stuff will be buying vinyl, so I guess I
should mention that the CD version (of Torque) is a double CD, one of which
is an Ed Rush mix CD which has the Boymerang remix of Technology on
it....rollin'...

peace,
Dylan.
