The first installation of the long-promised mix CDs from the London superclub that it’s OK to like. Mixed by Saturday resident Craig Richards, it seems to be screaming out ‘I’m cool! Honest! Look! No big tunes!’
Fair enough, the exclusion of biggies for underground gems is always to be applauded, but there are far better underground offerings out there than these.
