American drum-n-bass DJs don't get as much respect as they should, and Dieselboy more than most. Here he crafts a strong, consistent set that's pretty dark wihtout being morbid, and if he had just released that first disc, this would be a much sytronger overall record. As it is, the extra remixes onthe second disc don't satisfy as much as some of the first disc (which has it's just-average moments, but clearly more good than bad), and you won't likely be playing anything off of it after a couple of listens. By contrast, the first disc has a lot more flavors than the average d-n-b compilation (like J. Majik's and Goldie's 1-note compilations earlier this year), so you'll find something worthwhile no matter how you like your d-n-b.Not for newbies per se; some of it is straight hardcore d-n-b, but a definite worthwhile purchase for fans of d-n-b.
