"The second strike in Saigon's mission to bring together a collection to check for a slice of the best of what's going in the next level of today's increasingly global underground, to launch new artists and fresh beats, to monitor the fantastic evolutionary rate of this music which is currently known as drum'n'bass...with quality control by No U-Turn's founding producer Nico. The album features totally exclusive tracks from Nico, Ryme Tyme, Kyan, Dom & Ryme Tyme, Roots, Unknown Face & Interrupt."

"Representing the Deep and Dark end of Drum n' Bass, No-U-Turn records limited of London produced tracks that were as dense as 'Techstep' could possibly be before 'Neuro-Funk' came by with it's (sampled) horns blaring and ended the focus on perhaps the highlight of the whole drum n' bass movement so far. Saigon, one of two No-U-Turn imprints (the other being No-U-Black) was set up to release the more experimental output at the onset of No-U-Turn's demise into formulaic two-step, and has succeeded in putting out some of the best tracks by the current crop of D'n'B avatars. Here, on their (now a trademark) label-retrospective, we get exclusives by Dom & Roland (of Dom & [Matrix/Optical/Ed Rush] fame, with records for Moving Shadow, 31, etc...), Future Forces (Renegade Hardware), Calyx (new Moving Shadow/Audio Blueprint signing), Kyan, Ryme Time, Ill Machine, Deep Rooted, Research, and Descending Angel, all pushing the envelope of 'in' jungle just far enough as to insure home-listening benefits rival that of bass-bin residency and sweat-loss @ Metalheadz night. Nothing groundbreaking of course, just solid, well-produced tracks with a few surprises tucked in for repeat listening. Dark." --Hrvatski
