Nerm (Radio 1/BBC Asian Network/Shiva Soundsystem) - “Yep - on Electro East this Saturday. Great package - both wicked tunes for different vibes."

Darren Walsh - “Thanks for the cd of the forthcoming 12th Planet release. Feeling both mixes; Skream one is the one I'm gonna play. Could you send me a vinyl if you get any promos in please? Not really a cd dj.”
Jamie Vexd - “Love this latest Skream mix.”
N-Type (Various) - “The Skream mix is ok...I prefer 12th Planet (& EMUs) original, I have been playing that quite a bit. Look forward to hearing more from this label.”
Annie Nightingale (Radio 1) - “Remix by Skream is wonderful. Will play on my show this week.”

DJ Surgeon (Various) - “Sorry man not really feeling either of these this time.”
Plastician (Terrorythm, RinseFM) - “Nice one for this. Will be supporting.”
Emtek (Various) - “The Skream Mix is really good. Being playing out and it is going down well.”
Dominic Stanton (Domu/Co op) - “Yes it is a great remix! On the other hand I am currently a little weary of this dubstep sound. I think it is going to get tired very soon as it never seems to change that much, and as most scenes get older, get less funkier and real. That said, the sound and ideas on this remix, apart from the cheesy sound at the start, are great and very danceable and very playable, so I am going to give it love and in the set ! 8/10 on the strength of the remix.”
Danny Native (Various) - “The Skream remix is decent but it is all about the the Original Mix which is in all my sets. Top release.”
Laurent Garnier (Worldwide) “Love both of the mixes. Thanks for the link. Great Stuff. Radio and Club Plays.”
Ben Wijay (Just Muzik) - “Superb release. Look forward to hearing more from BassHead.”
Robert Luis (Tru Thoughts) - “Just wanted to let you know that this release is going down really well. Lots of people are asking about it. Featured on my show a few times as well.”
Jazzanova (SK/Universal) - “Yes thank you. This is one of the dubstep tracks I do really like. The Original as well.”
David V (Ministry Head of Music) - “Skream mix is ok but have heard better from him.”
Hugo B (AKA) - “Lovely release. Top quality stuff. Been spinning on the reg.”
Mistajam (1xtra) – “Not for me this time am afraid but please keep them coming.”
