No but you'll be able to get most of the tunes on vinyl - Trooper/Bar9 rmx, The Prayer/rmxs and the Black Sheep EP are already out as are all the tunes on the 2nd cd. The Funk is coming out soon with a Synkro remix on the flipside, Bloodbath is coming out with a Bar9 rmx, Indigo is doing a remix of Fully Booked for a 12 as well and Stroller should get a vinyl release at some point. So good is getting a 12 release on Vibez (Subject 13s label) probably about September.

Oh yea Vagabundo will be getting remixed as well ill post more info on that soon....

lol release has been put back again but we should have the cds in stock way b4 then so deffo no more delays - looking at a late August/Early September release now.

In the meantime I'm starting 2 new labels "Migration" and "Sour Grapes", SOURG001 and MIGRAT001 will hit shops Monday 13th July but you might be able to get copies late next week from http://www.droprecords.co.uk - I'll post more details and audio next week when I get back from Amsterdam.

both War Pig and Ninja Scroll are complete bangers. Picked up the white labels a while a go. wasn't really feeling that Black Sheep EP that much tbh but those two made up for it. Vagabundo is great too.

Looking forward to getting this Rob - I've only heard good things, and I know this is going to blow minds!

Which album is going to come out first? Yours or mine??! I'll race you!! haha

Seriously tho - if people haven't geared themselves up for this - get on it. Rob's a top producer (and a lovely bloke too - if not, a little on the tall side.)
