Well, i have to agree. IMHO, Of the recent 'drill n' bass' comps, this
one falls right in the middle.  (better than spunk jazz, not as good as
noodles) Six artists involved : more from no future/mosquito than
spymania (though the drill n' bass v. 'weirdbeat' techno tracks are
split) . Hardy Spymania aka Hardy Finn aka Barry Pseudonym aka
comeonfeelthenothing aka 1/2 wafta; DJ Decay aka Christian Vogel; Mat
Yee-King aka Mat Consume(the no future guy), i think...;marvelous mdk=??;
milky boy is involved with bovinyl someway...much better than the other
bovinyl cum.  ; oh, and jamie lidell aka jamie lidell (mosquito); 

not really in the mood to write a full review (i'll post one tomarrow),
but here's the tracklisting:
Hardy Spymania: Scum
Milky Boy: the last atari
Jamie Lidell: onabouldapushin
Matt Yee-King: Shrink Panther
Milky boy: Kate's Rush
DJ Decay: Buckaroo
Jamie Lidell: riddlin
the marvelous mdk: ultimetly boring (but easy)
Matt Yee-King: Drink The Cuntshake
Milky boy: What I Hate Deserves It
DJ Decay: Too Much of The stuff 

actually, it's more like the artist is 'trash' (which is a group
consisting of all six members), but each track is credited to only one
artist.

it's pretty good stuff... doesn't really leave much of an aftertaste
though...  a lot more 'cross pollination', traces of rock and stuff.
definatly pick up Noodles 1 [deathofcool] first
