"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
