OMG..This one has to be one of my all time favorite D n B comps! This is really got me into electronic music. We used to have a thing between a few friends to see who could find the best mix comp for our "get togethers" This one blew it up everytime and still gives me goosebumps when I listen to it remembering those times.

Potentially the best album ever. Ive been listening to Bukem since I was about 14 (urgh thats 14 years ago now) and pretty much every cd he has ever done has been superb. I would particuarly recommend the yellow Journey Inwards and Progression sessions one from America) My first ever bean was done sitting in a field on a summers eve and I had a bukem tape in my walkman. All my other mates didnt like it coz was too chilled so I just sat there in total bliss listening to it over and over.

Re: I am really getting into Drum & Bass

i also have the journey inwards cd and it is great stuff. nice chilled out jazzy stuff. if you like kruder and dorfmeister you will like that cd.

Re: I am really getting into Drum & Bass

^^ Yes good stuff. The K+D sessions is still my fav though, one of my top cds ever, that mix is phenomenal.

Re: I am really getting into Drum & Bass

Roni Size/Reprazent's New Forms was a benchmark for not just the drum 'n' bass genre that it leapt from, but for all types of electronic music.

Released a decade ago in 1997, the album's title was apt with a sound that surpassed any previous drum 'n' bass efforts and brought the genre to a whole new audience. After catapulting its creators to music's top table, the crowning achievement was winning the Mercury Prize in the same year, beating the likes of Radiohead, Primal Scream and two of Size's dance music peers, Chemical Brothers and Prodigy.

To mark this anniversary, Roni Size has returned to re-edit New Forms. "The first generation of heads who were there with the rise of Reprazent & Roni Size will be able to reminisce over the last decade with the classics Brown Paper Bag, Share The Fall & Heroes. The generation of those who missed it will be able to appreciate the album with the new coat of armour I have added to the original tracks. I think fans of the original album always appreciated what we did with the technology of the day. This latest version shows what is possible now."

Four brand new tracks will also be included, including the single Don't Hold Back, which manages to not only sound like a perfect bedfellow for the original thirteen tracks on New Forms but is also thoroughly contemporary. Not surprising perhaps, considering the timeless quality that Roni Size/Reprazent captured through the likes of Heroes, Share The Fall and the top 20 single Brown Paper Bag. New single, Don't Hold Back will be released on March 24th, two weeks before the reissue of New Forms2.
