For the last part of my trip in Europe, I stopped off to play a show in Edinburgh, Scotland. Great city, but unfortunately there weren’t many stores there with good oldschool stuff.

DJ Fokus
DJ Fokus is without a doubt one of my favorite of the lesser known 93-95 artists. Originally releasing on the label Blueprint Records, his first release “The Theme” bw “Disengaged” is an in-demand amen smasher, fetching high prices these days. He followed this EP up with a solo outing on the same label, before releasing…

Got Enya Hardcore?
I don’t have time to write up a comprehensive post on a single artist today… instead, here’s a collection of tunes that all share the same (in this case seriously cheesy) sample source: “Orinoco Flow” by Enya. The first track is from a good 92 whitelabel by DJ Trace – Supposedly titled “Rudeboy Hardcore” according…
Bay B Kane interview, part 1
Anyone who thinks they know oldschool but doesn’t own at least a few Bay B Kane releases should be ashamed of themselves! From 1990 to 1996, Mel Tanur aka Bay B Kane was one of the most prolific and influential hardcore/jungle producers around. Tracks like “Hello Darkness”, “Bagpipes in Effect” and “Quarter To Doom” are…
