And you absolutely MUST pick up the Landlide 3x12 on Hospital. I don't play
d'n'b, so the London Electricity stuff, while wonderful, isn't much use to
me... but Landslide is an absolute must-have for anyone digging the more
percussive (think Total Science or Hidden Agenda) end of broken beat.
There's also a fabulous (and exclusive!) London Electricity track on one the
Patrick Forge-compiled "Off Centre 2" on BBE (I'm pretty sure that's the
one) that's just unmissable. Makes me wonder why I'm *not* playing d'n'b.
