Catching up on last night's Top of the Pops and remembering that - for some reason - I have an Oxide and Neutrino presentation disc I had completely forgotten about. Less Bound 4 Da Reload than it is Bound 4 Da car boot sale. #TOTP

Obscured by some random 'top of the shelving unit' detritus, a legit presentation disc for Oxide and Neutrino's album, Execute - given to me during the last days of Our Price, I think.
