I have to say that this album is absolutely MENTALLY good. I have had it for the last two weeks or so and frankly I have listened to little else. At its best it is literally some of the best music I have ever heard. For my money, Con/Fusion, DisEast and Darker Than East are some of the most captivating, mind-fucking, sweet / sad / sly music out there. There's plenty of sub but almost no wobble, there's swing but it's totally blackdowned, it's a remarkably original and gloriously luminous album. It doesn't really sound like any other kind of dubstep or grime or garage you've heard - but it is FULL of earworms and hooks and hidden depths that take weeks to come out. I think it will be a challenging listen for a lot of people but it is chock full of the sonic patina of '00's urban life and is really worth getting into. Has anyone else got this yet?
