        |       | This CD is a sweet mix by Alley Cat assembled |       |        
        |       | from old and new skunkrock releases.          |       |

        |       |   2000 was a good year for Skunkrock and of   |       |        
        |       |   course also for Alley cat and the rest of   |       |        
        |       |   the posse. And in the new year it all looks |       |        
        |       |   like they will continue the progress and    |       |        
        |       |   keep their work on a constantly high level. |       |        
        |       |   At the latest by the end of 2001 they       |       |        
        |       |   should not only be 'one to watch' but a     |       |        
        |       |   strong part of the scene. After Kabuki &    |       |        
        |       |   Savine's 'Intastate' there is now this nice |       |        
        |       |   mix-cd. On 'No Formalities' Alley Cat spins |       |        
        |       |   herself through the label's back catalogue  |       |        
        |       |   and adds a few specials with an bonus track |       |        
        |       |   by Q-Project and a yet unreleased one by    |       |        
        |       |   her and Danny Savine. The mix is very tight |       |        
        |       |   and makes No Formailties the perfect entry  |       |        
        |       |   to the treasure chamber of Skunkrock. It is |       |        
        |       |   atmospherically very layed and has the      |       |        
        |       |   perfect balance between tear out and        |       |        
        |       |   musical deepness. [...]                     |       |

        |       |   Alley cat drops 'Iodine' as a nice intro    |       |        
        |       |   tune. A slowly and relaxed developing track |       |        
        |       |   produced by Tha Countamen and herself.      |       |        
        |       |   Quickly her good mix fades to Dom & Rolands |       |        
        |       |   genious terror remix of Daniel Savine's     |       |        
        |       |   'This Time'. Triadd's 'Hydroxy' remix by    |       |        
        |       |   Digital & Spirit pulls the listener into    |       |        
        |       |   the deep and dark fields of the organised   |       |        
        |       |   machine terror. With Kabuki & Savine's      |       |        
        |       |   'Backup' then the energy changes into a     |       |        
        |       |   different direction. Calm, straight breaks  |       |        
        |       |   and basslines provide a deep mood. This     |       |        
        |       |   gets worked out continously. Further tunes  |       |        
        |       |   from UFO!, Konflict, Klute and Q-Project    |       |        
        |       |   let the mix become harder again and a deep  |       |        
        |       |   potential without being too hammering.      |       |        
        |       |   Altogether Alley Cat mixes about one hour   |       |        
        |       |   fluently through those twelve tracks that   |       |        
        |       |   have so far only been released on Skunkrock.|       |

        |       |   a peek of what's to come in the first       |       |        
        |       |   compilation CD from the hottest new label   |       |        
        |       |   to emerge in the past few years. With a     |       |        
        |       |   focus on diversity and an eye towards       |       |

        |       |   Skunkrock has managed to gather the finest  |       |        
        |       |   talent the drum & bass community has to     |       |        
        |       |   offer while inspiring them to lay down      |       |        
        |       |   their very best work. From the terrorizing  |       |        
        |       |   to the melodic, folks like UFO!, Konflict,  |       |        
        |       |   and Digital & Spirit lay the foundation,    |       |

        |       |   The past two years Skunkrock has become a   |       |        
        |       |   name in the hectic and fast changing world  |       |        
        |       |   of drum'n'bass. Now, at the beginning of    |       |        
        |       |   2001, 'No Formalities' brings us a          |       |        
        |       |   compilation of some excellent drum'n'bass   |       |        
        |       |   stuff that already has been releases on     |       |        
        |       |   vinyl during the past period. The finest    |       |        
        |       |   thing about Skunkrock is that it is         |       |        
        |       |   collaboration between people who were and   |       |        
        |       |   are active in the German, English and       |       |        
        |       |   American musical underground. Hence this cd |       |        
        |       |   breathes an international sphere with some  |       |        
        |       |   very diverse drum'n'bass mixed together by  |       |        
        |       |   Alicia Williams who is, as Alley Cat, also  |       |        
        |       |   present with three tracks (together with Da |       |        
        |       |   countamen and Savine). Although Dom &       |       |        
        |       |   Roland, Digital. Konflict and Klute come up |       |        
        |       |   with some great remixes of Skunrock         |       |        
        |       |   material, Kabuki & Savine are responsible   |       |        
        |       |   for the best tracks. Their 'Intastate' is   |       |        
        |       |   sublime with open strings, great            |       |        
        |       |   melody-line and deep bass. Sounds like the  |       |        
        |       |   best Bukem-material. Completely over the    |       |        
        |       |   top is the Konflict remix of UFO!'s         |       |        
        |       |   'Personal Blackmail'. Konlict turns this    |       |        
        |       |   techstepper into a hectic acid-like drum'n  |       |        
        |       |   'bass killer. The other Skunkrock stuff by  |       |

        |       |   Formalities' only gives us a compilation of |       |

| SOUR has been releasing good quality drum'n'bass, jungle & oldskool rips to |  
|    the internet drum'n'bass public since summer 1999. Originally a small    |

|  public, and our rips are intended to reflect these ideals. Specifically:   |  
|                                                                             |

| . SOUR is dedicated to the expansion and infiltration of drum'n'bass        |  
|   worldwide! We provide a service where none is available, specifically in  |  
|   many remote countries where traditional distributors can not afford to    |  
|   target. Also, the availability of drum'n'bass in an easily accessible     |  
|   form expands the potential for real world sales to people who may not     |  
|   otherwise have considered buying drum'n'bass.                             |

| . SOUR is dedicated to the expansion of the online and offline real world   |  
|   scenes. With more listeners enjoying what they hear, clubs and venues can |  
|   only expect MORE people to attend events; DJ's can only expect MORE       |  
|   people to pay to see THEM.                                                |

| By accident of today's current real world distribution arrangements, many   |  
|   artists will find that SOUR releases IMPROVE their real world sales;      |  
|  especially for items only on vinyl. This is the basis upon which SOUR      |  
|                                 operates.                                   |
