Anyone hear MJ Cole's new one "Crazy Love", it's got mucho soul and
grooves like an early Soul ll Soul track. It features the sultry vocals
of Elizabeth Troy, who appeared on many early Jungle singles. One of 'em
on S.O.U.R. Records. Does anyone remember??? His style of 2 step garage
is classy, soulful, and reminds of Roni Size gone garage. "Attitude"
reminisces with an early moody drum & bass influence (Alex Reece,
Creative Souce, or Foul Play's "Open your Mind", but at a 127 BPMs.
It also has a nice skippy garage mix done by US legend Todd Edwards.
