Marcus Nasty's Boxing Day set is impressive to say the least. http://rinse.fm/2012/01/rinse-boxing-day-fabric-room-1-sets/
Dunno about this one - listened to the first 10 mins yesterday, was really feeling it at first but as can happen with marcus nasty sets it just didnt have enough variety for me. didnt really give it a proper chance tho, will have another go.

OK I've gotten round to giving this a couple of proper listens now. I wouldn't say I love every single tune on it but overall I like it and I can sort of see why people were getting excited about it.
There's still a few stretches with too many wobbly tunes in a row for my liking (though some of the tunes themselves are great) and there's maybe also a few too many gassed reloads for tunes with the exact same kind of drop as x amount of others (do people really get excited like that over and over again?). But compared to last time I was listening to Marcus (around November/December last year) it feels a lot fresher and more varied and has a better flow to it.
Perhaps the most promising thing is that in terms of beat programming there's a lot of patterns that sounds fresh while still being clearly uk-funky-ish, 'cause perhaps last year there were starting to be a few too many tunes with the same basic snare pattern. And yeah Blackdown's tune with the GQ samples is big.
Now I just have to listen to Eastwood's podcast, the Funkystepz mix and Benny's new mix... I'm like a fat kid with cake here.

Yessssss, nice one mate.
For those who don't know it/have forgotten it, this is Knocking At My Door by Andy J and & S-Tee, a top vocal tune from 2009, full of those blaring brass riffs that Benny was on about the other week. Guaranteed to put a smile on yer face.
