    Quite - actually my biggest problem with "Broken Beat" is that
    most the tracks sound like one long intro - you are just sitting there
    waiting for the main break to come in. (especially NSM stuff!)

    Take for example Afronauts "Transcend Me" that everyone on this list
    was raving about - it has some funky aspects to that but drop that in most
    clubs and after about 2 mins into the song you can see the confusion
    spread across the clubbers faces as they try and groove to it and that's
    one of the more energetic tracks. (believe me I've done it too)
    Maybe you have to play it in certain West London clubs for the
    crowd to get it.

    Of course there some exceptions - Bugz stuff normally manages to rock it.

    Controversal comments perhaps?
