Still very enjoyable by me. A shite artist with a great label. He's WAY too hyped with nothing to back it up. He make s the worst tracks on his own label. > > > As for Saturn..

Horrible disc as well. Temper is okay.But not good by any standard of agressive jungle.This has got to be the worst album I've ever picked up. Sad because Platinum Breakz2 was excellent and shows that his label at least was going a bit heavier..and he has none of his own tracks on it..king of jungle my ass. > > > Goldie could've done *a lot* better. apparently not. > > > Hell, *I* could've done a lot better. probably. > > > I think I have, in fact... > I'll believe you.Goldie sux.end of story.spaul
