VA ...And Still No Hits - The Story So Far (1997 Nation Records)

Back in the 90s, the world was a lovely place to be. People believed in multi-culti and exotic influences in music were always welcome. The success of Transglobal Underground helped to establish London's Nation Records as the major stable for Middle East inspired artists in the UK and worldwide. Although many of Nation artists had prety radical views, both political and religious (Asian Dub Foundation, Fun-Da-Mental), their music was the sound of any good tea room and coffee shop on both sides of Atlantic. However, after 9/11 the demand for anything from Middle East dropped drastically (except for oil, of course) and Nation Records experienced deep decline. Actually only two albums and two compilations were released after 2001.
...And Still No Hits is a 2CD compilation showcasing Nation Records at it's peak, a label with many commercially successful artists and great distribution deals. No matter if you're drum'n'bass, dub or techno fan, I'm sure you will find some tracks that will make you happy.
