While Goldie is not the best DJ in the world, he is a decent "selecta," as the Jamaicans might say. For INCredible Sound of Drum & Bass the notorious head of the Metalheadz label reaches back into jungle's catalog, pulling out the classics--ironically, only four or five years old--and combining them with newer tunes. Tracks such as Doc Scott's "Here Come the Drums" and "Warning" by Codename John (a.k.a. Grooverider) are essential for any jungle aficionado, and both appear here. Careful not to neglect the new stuff, the man with the mouth full of gold teeth does not pick the trendy big-blazers, but rather more sophisticated, fine-tuned, streamlined records that work well with the airy atmospherics of the older singles. Johnny L's techno-stabber "See Red" mixes with Doc Scott's "Unofficial Ghost," while producers like Matrix and Fresh and Vegas make appearances, side by side with Source Direct and Shy FX. This is not a mind-blowing affair, but it is--as the U.K. jocks say--proper. --Tricia Romano

Caution: American Release NOT complete........2006-07-26
favorite by far.......2006-04-10
Classics.......2006-03-23
Plus a bunch of other classics from the mid to late '90s.
The people who rate drum & bass but rate this 1 star really need to get to know the genre properly.
Oh yeah, some of the tracks sound different to what is getting played now. once you appreciate the fact some of the production is relatively lo-fi (a combination of the music being so, so underground and home-made back then, and the fact dance music production, especially with regards to sampling, is so much moree advanced and easy-to-use now), you will see that the ideas, the programming (especially in the beats and rhythms) and the raw vibe is original D&B at the fullest and most advanced. It's like 90% Irish Poteen, compared with a 4% Coors Light of today's scene. Weaker junglist stomachs may fold under pressure.
(Actually, I played 'Here Comes The Drumz' and 'Terminator' to an American girl at my uni in 1998 - alledgedly a d&b fan - telling her this was the roots of the sound and she flat out denied that they were d&b tracks at all! Also played her a JJ Frost mix from early '93 which got the same response. I gave up in the end, such was the force of her 'considered opinion'. Just goes to show, ha ha ha.)
A trend setter.......2006-03-11
It's old school drum'n'bass, not the fancier faster new tracks that you might be used to. Having said that, it's classic, classic dark drum'n'bass for those who want to see what d'n'b was like when it was on the verge of its surge in popularity.
One of the worst mixes I've ever heard.......2006-01-16

A very Solid 2-Cd Collection from The "INCredible" label...........2004-02-14
So SO SO.......2000-10-05
Side One, the boys give u all the newest 2 step commercial hits. Everythin from Wookie to Craig David ... with tones of Dreem teem and Artful Dodgers mixs to go around. However, there are just too many songs that sound the same, after awhile you just get tired of that constant R&B vocal and crave for a change. The beats are what attract me to the 2 step, however i found that the vocals on this compilation often over power the beat. There also lacks enough MCing and dark tracks to make this a tru album for the selectas!
Side Two. A blast from the past! Mikee, Timmie, and DJ Spoony pick their favorite influential garage tracks from the past. I , personally , think tha the album is strong because of the different types of songs found on this side. You got the Gap Band, Crystal Waters, Jodeci, Roy Davis Jr. Also you find some early jungle and house tracks, such as a early Jeff Mills tune done under "True Faith".
Based on the strength of the second disc, i gave this album a 3 out of 5. If you want a good 2 step album then try "Twice As Nice IN Ayia Nap" mixed by DJ Spoony, the album has everything for everyone and is probably the best 2 step mix album i came across. As for this album, i am probably gonna just listen to the second disc and throw the other disc in a pile of cds that i dont listen to.
