Album Notes: An eclectic mix of IDM, house, and drum-and-bass, this compilation, presented by the Australian combo Nubreed, features the cream of the smallest continent's dance artists, including Si Begg, the Stanton Warriors, and Andy Page.
Advantages: Great Value, Great tunes Disadvantages: Not quite what i was expecting from King Unique
...As a big King Unique fan (after seeing them play at Worldheaquarters and Digital in Newcastle) i bought this CD with high expectations, however, this was a change from King Uniques trademark 'Dirty House' to something a little more chilled and slow and less 'in your face' than usual...a little bit different and experimental but none the less a great mix of tunes, which gets better every time i listen to it, in particular, track 7 (i think) Zoom In (Kupon) mixed with Rocket Ride (Felix da House Cat) which sounds awesome! Nice album as background music, but not much on there that would make you wanna dance.
CD 2 is a bit more intense...Nubreed (from Australia) whom i haven't heard of before but after to listening to the CD i would definitely go to see them if they played over here. Very energetic, bouncy, dirty electro that is better...

Advantages: Lots of music on each CD Disadvantages: Not great if you're not a true drum & bass fan
...If you like drum and bass music then this album is a must have for your collection! This is Fabio and Grooverider's first appearance on a Drum and Bass Arena Album, and you can see why they are called the masters.
This 2 cd album contains 40 songs, 18 on one cd and 22 on the other. It includes songs by artists like Shimon & Andy C, DJ SS, Dillinja and Format.
Fabio's mixes are upbeat and jazzy, while Grooverider is more into the dark and low bass tunes.
If you know someone who is into drum and bass, or you're into it yourself you will truly enjoy this album.
Here is the track listing-
Disc: 1 (Mixed by Fabio)
1. Allied Forces - Gather round
2. Formatt - Guiding star
3. Total Science - Gimme your love
4. A.I. - Switch on
5. Ill logic & RAF - Could It Be
6. Roni Size - Strictly social (Nu...
