really good point, forget how catchy the melody is, this a definite song, not just some riddim. also like how this, and her other stuff, sounds very friendly and lively, not mechanic and bleak.
Good point, I hadn't actually thought of that in my original post, thanks for pointing that out and thanks for the feedback

This sounds like 3 completely different tracks battling for attention at the same time. I mean that in the best possible way - I especially like the bit from 3:17 where grime pops out from the bottom of the pile holding the flag for a few seconds till the other tracks jump on again to try to get it back

True, true! I heard this on Kode9's Rinse-set and found myself dragging back the cursor to the point where the 4x4 beat kicks in. Excellent track.

Well given that no-one else has gone for it I'll ask the obvious question, is it coming out?
I waaaants it.
