Here's a working link for that mix:

<object width="480" height="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.mixcloud.com/media/swf/playe ... ram><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="wmode" value="opaque"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.mixcloud.com/media/swf/playe ... t_standard" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="opaque" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="480"></embed></object>

That whole era passed me by but that Silver Bullet song is great and the mix is sounding good so far. I wish it could be downloaded.

As far as U.K. hip hop stuff, I always loved this Blak Twang song:

<object width="560" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/8T6-AHl024Q?ve ... ram><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/8T6-AHl024Q?version=3&hl=en_GB" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

And this is ridiculously dope, even if there are hints of American accents here and there:

<object width="420" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/OumTL8g2H34?ve ... ram><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/OumTL8g2H34?version=3&hl=en_GB" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

So dope! That Johnny M.C. track is crazy, could almost be an El-P beat.

yo, can anyone suggest some wiley shit to start with? or where to start on this grime shit in general

For Wiley, i'd suggest trawling the web for radio/live sets. His albums I find to be properly patchy.

Here's an amazing one from the Tim Westwood show a while ago, with Skepta and JME...

"Come to your ends like Achilles, and take out Hector"

The Rinsessions CDs were good too, particularly the Roll Deep one.

I'll upload some stuff in a few days! Thread needs barknee and tpp...

His latest official album, Evolve Or Be Extinct, is pretty good as far as Wiley albums are concerned - he's more of a singles guys though, as is this whole scene.
Dude still churns out five albums a year though.
