was havin a little conversation about this at the pub the other night, my mate chose MRK1 over Distance (cos he didn't have enough $ for both). Personally I think they're both sick (and bought both).
What do you lot reckon, which one is your favourite?
edit: just did a mix of the two albums with tracks from both artists back2back

Both albums are really amazing, and compliment each other well. I was expecting the Distance to be amazing, but ended up being really floored by the Mrk1, so I guess I vote Mrk1.
Bigit to Planet µ for putting these out. I am really liking the way the dubstep albums on µ are sounding, very lush and great production. Do you think it is due to common mastering?

I don't think anyone can touch the Distance production value. His shit is kinda in a league of it's own for the most part IMO.

Distance's got my vote as well, been waiting a long time for that LP to come out... and it finally did.

pretty fat that Planet Mu can release two albums within a short period of time that no so much as rival but compliment eachother. catered for both all tastes there i reckon. If you don't like either you can go do one

very close call.
for me 'night vision' and 'my demons' as single tracks are my favourite.
but as a complete album I have to go for copyright laws.
went and copped both tho, still!

Before they were released i think i was lookig forward to the Distance lp more but since getting them the MRK 1 has been on my decks a lot more- its great for mixing with.
So i think im going to vote for MRK 1

I like them both but Distance's is clearly more innovative and musical. But production wise and dancefloor potential are pretty even.

Can't decide yet, but your mix will hopefully help me out!
