There is much good drunk n' bass but some of it gets a bit monotonous
fer me, and, combined with that hefty import price tag, especially on
some 5LP set, shit can get outta control.
Wormhole was pretty cool, but I didn't hear any real standout
tracks...it certainly was a dissapointment compared to the ol' skool No
U-turn Masterpiece called "Torque". Now that, my friends, is some sick
n' twisted beatz.
Also felt lackluster about the Ram rekkids full length. Though I felt
the Origin Unknown remix of EZ rollers' 'Tough at the Top' was one of
the best last year, the LP didn't have the same quality.
I liked the Drumfunk Hooliganz LP that Moving Shadow put out...very
funky drum n' bass, even has a Tom Wait's sample in it (from the Small
Change LP...), liked the first couple of Test 12"s and Ram Trilogy 12"s,
the John B. rekkid. Grooverider's full length has some good tracks but
I couldn't drop fer it all.
The rule of thumb: Listen before you buy. Always. Shitz too
expensivo.
