also on the album is the last track skream played on his essential mix which is incredible

is that teh housey techno one, which is TOO FUCKING DEEP?
I think its on that mammoth 4 hour stella session as well, near when Hijak - Tears gets played, heard it a few times and its just unreal.
Pinch played it at Glade as well I believe

Can't wait for Benga's new album, it will be big as every single beats and piecs from the man himself, his Newstep is one of my favourite albums ever.
Lets wait for the drop, there are some quality tunes that must see the light of the day innit.

Excellent glad people are putting albums out it adds subtance to the genre.Every tune should be good enough to listen to in its entirety otherwise it makes the music very throwaway.I still go back to old Jungle classics,Techno and house tunes and listen to them alone.Making dance music purely for the mix limits creativity.

From the bits I've heard, it's all about Pleasure for me...

umm has no one mentioned that this is the best fucking title for an album ever. especially for Benga!

looking forward to this a lot, sounds like hes to do something really different which should be very interesting..

whoever said this should be 12's and not an album, you couldnt be more wrong in my opinion, this is exactly the kind of thing dubstep needs more of.

So whats the score....It's a Tempa release right? Anyone know if it's getting a vinyl release?

absolutely.

Pleasure is HUUUGE! It pleases me!

I'm excited.

And I reckon albums are a good thing for the scene right now - it'll help spread the word to people who don't buy vinyl or download mixes, it might push variety a bit and if it goes well it might also make Benga and Tempa a bit of cash money, which I don't think we can begrudge them.

I may revise this opinion in a year or so when Rusko starts writing 60 minute choral tunes about his mother or Coki does a collaboration with Courtney Pine, though...

i want that so bad. love all of bengas stuff including (or especially) the new ones.
but they should release drumz west and night. dubplate culture is one thing but they have been around for a while now and it would just be a shame not to out em out

Benga kills it.

Also wears the best cardigans in dubstep.
