I pretty much lost interest in grime after Aim High Volume 2. (Which I still listen to regularly.)

So in light of that; Mr Weasel, care to recommend a few of the better recent ones?

Mate, you did more than that. Got into dubstep summer 2005 after reading your Pitchfork column on the regular. Big up :D

Check it:

JME-Shuh Yuh Muh
J2K-Heat in the Street
Ruff Sqwad-Guns & Roses 2
Bearman-Bear Necessities
Eskiboy-1-5 Mixtapes
Hooligans-It's Coming Home

...and yeah, of course you can download any grime mixtape you want, at no cost, (and porn and software) from a certain site I won't mention, but you gotta support scenes that need it, eh?
