It's a little cheeky having the same song on consecutive albums. Soundtrack To Forever (featuring Tiki Taane) appeared on Bulletproof's 2010 album of the same name, and it also popped up on Tiki Taane's album from earlier this year - which makes it twice as cheeky. Still, it's a towering
track and lucky then that the Crushington Remix version that appears here is vastly different (well, kind of in its fitful and shivering way) from the original. And it's not like it's making up track numbers either, because at 16 tracks-long Dub Me Crazy is another monster epic from the prolific dubstep beat maker.
There are many other familiar songs, like the catchy, if simplistic, title track anthem with Jessie G, and his remixes of On the Road by Kidz In Space and (best of all) the twisted wistfulness of Anika Moa's Running Through the Fire.
These more appealing and easy listening tunes are balanced out by punishing, rib-rattling instrumentals like the brutally bombastic Madness, the tough-talking, hard-stepping and sinewy Them Dubs, and his double team with Crushington on Masquerade.
It can make for a slightly incongruous listen at times - then again, there's nothing like a little bit of diversity to spice things up and tracks like Stray Bullet, with its double-time dubstep delirium, sure does that.
It also lacks a little of the shin-shattering, visceral power of Soundtrack To Forever but it makes up for it by being more palatable for the masses.
