This is a bit old now (well, it's from earlier this year, but that's old in terms of the fast moving world of modern music, eh?), so it doesn't have any of the more recent classics on it (eg Rustie 'Zig-Zag' etc), but i think this is a great primer for the wonky sound:

And some fucking sweet mixes going on in there too.

There's one here: http://dubstepforum.com/viewtopic.php?p=878963
Haven't actually listened to it yet, but the tracklist is solid.

always AQUACRUNK- why is the world not embracuing this.
Rustie, chief aquacrunker IMO, is rocking Amersham Arms in New Cross on Saturday night....

wot u call it?
Friend of mine recommended Hip-Drop, Taco Beats, Aqua-Poo....
Do people see wonky as covering both the 85-110 hip hop-ish stuff (fly lo, samiyam, bullion) and the 140 bpm dubsteppy stuff (Joker, Zomby, Starkey). There's obviously a lot of overlap but I dunno, I just call it hip hop and dubstep respectively.

talking of starkey- his new long player is just astounding, absolutely incredible- my album of the year for sure.

I'm holding out for post-funky nu-skool wonky in a few years. These genre names are getting worse and worse
Already happening mate! Heard some stuff from mates that fall into this ha ha

This Norwegian collective has some brilliant mixes on their myspace page, especially the 'Hoshino vs Hanai' one. They seem to be calling it 'Streetbass' though, after Starkey I suppose.

Definitely some great stuff for fans of rustie, starkey etc.
