Unfortunately I couldn’t scrounge any site content together for Halloween this year – I was planning on doing another dark hardcore set (this time 91/92 stuff), but was busy with real life stuff and it looks like Jerome Hill beat me to it on his Kool FM radio show. As a last minute consolation prize,…

DJ Massive – Fall Down
Here’s a tune I played in my last radio show, which I think someone confused with Mad Ragga Jon – Fall Down on Me since it uses the same classic Tramaine “Fall Down” acapella. However, this tune is a bit more melodic than the Mad Ragga Jon tune, though like that one this also has…
Blog to the Oldskool Radio – 10/20/2013
Here’s last Sunday’s radio show… originally I was going to try to work 93-95 and then bounce back to 91/92 but…errr…that didnt’ happen. Instead I played a couple 4/ hardcore tunes at the end then went into a mini set of mostly german hardcore/jungle/pre-breakcore.
Dub Warriors – Rocking Out To The Nation (Chasing Breaks Mix)
Here’s another nice 94-95 tune ripe for the nabbing. Not sure if it turns up in MVE’s and real-life stores as much, but I see this EP for sale a lot online for quite cheap. Like a fair number of jungle tunes at the time, “Rocking Out” effectively combines ragga vocals and slightly rougher amens…
“Where were you in 92?” Hippies-In-India Edition
Something a little different from the usual 92 rave videos you see posted around… here’sa 92 rave in Goa, India. Don’t worry I’m not going to start posting Goa Trance on the blog, but kinda fun to see a very different type of party (where the sound of the music is almost drowned out by…
Ramos + Supreme – The Journey, Pt 1
Gotta love these singles you know for one track but where another one ends up being your favorite… you might buy it for one reason and then later find out somewhere else on the EP is a tune you’ve heard in mixes but never quite knew before. That’s definitely the case with this Ramos +…
MC Valentine – Welcome Into the Dome
Not sure if this tune even is classified as hardcore, or more uk hiphop w/ heavy breakbeats…. either way it’s a fun little jam! Recorded at Monroe Productions, but not engineered by Pete Parsons (otherwise I’m guessing the beatwork would be quite a bit more advanced!) Starting with the MC asking “whatever happened to ‘watch…
Two Undercover – Unite
Here’s a classy 92 tune which, if not known by name, many would definitely recognize from mixes – Seduction, Top Buzz and plenty of others top DJs played this back in 92. “Unite” is yet more wickedness from the 786/Deja Vu Recordings camp, who did “Started Again” as well as numerous other classics. No idea…
Radio Frontline – new oldskool netradio station
For the past few months I’ve been seeing a bunch of posts about a new all-oldskool net radio station starting – there’s already a few stations which heavily feature oldskool such as Renegade Radio,
Blog to the Oldskool Radio Sept 30th 2013 (96-98 dnb special)
Here’s the session from last Sunday, rerecorded because I forgot to press “record” when it was live on the air… did this in one take before heading out to a party last night, no volume correction but I cut a couple of offending measures out of the mix before mp3-izing. Overall I’d say it’s a…
