Just got this long-time want through the door (without paying horror prices), thanks to Noodles/DPR's GC Classics series. Anyone who calls themselves a fan of dubstep/dark garage owes it to KMA and themselves to buy this. Released in 1996 (but around on dubplate from late 95), this is, as far as I'm aware, the first meeting of UK garage (then in the speed garage era) with a darker, sub-bass driven sound and broken rhythms. When first played out, the audience apparently called for a record number of reloads, and it's not hard to hear why.
