I agree totally with Irene. I think we both have the vinyl verions, which missed a lot of the good stuff which can on 12" before it, but still this LP is highly dissapointing and contained nothing of real interest to me as a devout junglist. If you like your industrial gloomy doomy drum and bass then it might be for you, but otherwise stay well away. I really regret buying it. Having said that, I agree with John that his Neotropic mix is a killer, and I rate his track on the new Enforcers comp too. He's scheduled to have a new LP coming on Reinforced this year. The Arcon 2 debut sounded like really old material, so with luck the new stuff will be about 1000 times better. Either way I'll be listening before I buy this time.
