The key change on 'Traffic', 8 bars after the second drop, is still one of the most inspired things I've heard in any tune! It still makes me react the same way now as it did when I first heard it... :5:

are people feeling this? obviously not as gritty as his standard tunes as the remix is a bit less of an independent ting, but for me is a sick tune, will cop when out

Yup, its official: 21-2-11 CHST008 RIP. I finally killed my copy of it, Beyond sounded wonky and weird, I thought my cartridge was dying, it turns out after having played for the nth time it finally gave up the ghost. Its become permanent wall art now.

Not really feeling that remix or the kid-adrift mix, if I'm honest. Had D not said it was his I wouldn't have thought it was his.Could also be that I'm not a fan of rap, who knows.

Troubles, I've been looking for the name of it since NYE 2010, is getting rinsed when my copy arrives. It needs a proper release though, that seriously seems to be Distance's response to Swish.

Wow, New Outlook, huh? That was being dropped, what late 2009 early 2010?

Absolute badman. Way up there on my personal most influential dubstep producers of all time. Saw him and Tunnidge DJ in cologne a few months back, and boy did his tunes test the soundsystem.... Always pushing the bass to the max.

On a side note, who's feeling this one?



A bit on the commercial side sure, but in terms of mixing melody and heaviness, I think it just hits the spot. That second drop is pretty inspired as well. Been a recent favourite of mine.

All that melts away when the lights are down and the bass is up.
