Some might argue that this is old news by now, but I’m going to post it anyway. Chase & Status‘s new essential is a must listen for any drum & bass lover. It also has a pretty sweet dubstep section, if that’s more your thing.

Tune of the mix for me is “Pieces” (on Ram Records). White-label promos have been circulating for about a week (good luck finding one outside of eBay), and the full release is due any minute now. Or at least, it better be released soon – I need a copy.
