Amazon.comThe Promised Land posse has connections with folks like LTJ Bukem and Goldie. That means this double-disc compilation of drum 'n' bass notables is top quality and well worth investigating. Disc one is mixed by Mo' Wax recording artist Peshay, while the second has cuts by Roni Size, DJ Crystl, Code Blue, and even our man Bukem. Once again, Promised Land has released some of the most progressive electronic dance music around. Peshay's work is loaded with interesting string and horn arrangements as well as atypical beats and soulful vocals mixed over jazzified keyboard riffs. This collection sails clean and direct to the heart of the dance floor, and the time spent on Metalheadz and Mo' Wax has had a positive impact on Peshay's swinging sound. --Mitch Myers
