With Return To V, Roni Size returns to the label where his career once started: V-Records. The sound also looks old-fashioned familiar and basic and reminds of the time when Size was still looking for his style and produced a large number of drum'n'bass hits 'en passent'. The impressive guest list includes his colleagues Die, Viktor Duplaix, Tali, Dynamite MC, Blaze, Rodney P, Beverley Knight,
… Jocelyn Brown and Rahzel. However, it is not only d'n'b that is reviewed. Size is also quite good with hip-hop. Just listen to the passionate Problems with the well-known sample from Trans Europe Express (Kraftwerk). What is particularly striking about this CD is the versatility that was hard to find in this genre for a long time. Return To V makes you long for the time when drum ' n'bass was still adventurous.
