Best Compilation Album This Year?
Hey folks,
Aside from mixes & pirate radio, i always *thought* compilation albums were a good place to discover new artists, or hear tracks by known folks you haven't heard before. What's the best compilation you've snatched up this year?
Very recently, i've gotten -
Soul Jazz Records Presents: Riddim Box (http://www.souljazzrecords.co.uk/releases/?id=20988)
Worth the Weight - Britsol Dubstep Classics (http://boomkat.com/cds/353317-various-p ... p-classics)
Scientist Launches Dubstep Into Outer Space - Dubstep Originals (http://www.piccadillyrecords.com/shop/p ... ?pid=72914)
...and i have to say Future Bass on Soul Jazz is still my top pick. lol.

My favorite track this year is on that Nu Levels comp. That El-B/Burial track... is... a... fucking... roller.

got it yesterday on 320, so so so good! spent 7.99 from breakbeat.co.uk thought it was a good deal for some good fresh new tunes!
Re: Best Compilation Album This Year?
modeselektion, night slugs allstars, and re:call to mind deserve a shout as well 

hey, you wouldn't hire a clown to fix a leak in the john..so why do you let these hooligans tear down the biz?
Re: Best Compilation Album This Year?
Ah yes,
Re:Call to mind deserves mention too, but I have that stacked with the d&b stuff. Night Slugs Allstars isn't out yet but judging by the tracklist it's a worthy contender as well,
although they seem to have picked the tracks that I tought were ok and not fabulous

The Deep Medi compilations weren't digital only, you can still buy them on CD as well.brent wrote:i have most of the ones i wanted on vinyl, but the compilations were digital. i'm not sure how the digital releases would be gone.yaga wrote:Wish i knew that god damn Deep Medi compilation came out, lol.
