The first Logical Progressions is very good, also LTJ Bukem's mixmag
mix cd is quite good. Also not mentioned was Kruder & Dorfmeister's
"Conversions" CD on Shadow/Spray records (there's a quazi-legal one
out there)
And, I've been listening to the Goldie INCredible Sound of Drum'n'Bass.
Lastly for the DARKstep/hardstep find the Domestically released
"Brand New World" mixed by DJ Rap and Kenny Ken, has a definite
hardhead side, but, is broken up with some more different drum
patterns, so it doesn't get too monotonous.

The Dimitri From Paris mixmag mix CD is quite good--know a DJ who
just let the CD play and the crowd was quite happy.
