I’ve been kind of slow to upload lately since my main PC died, I can rip vinyl from my laptop but the software I wrote which auto-tags / labels /adds artwork to mp3s the way I like isn’t on this machine. So the ID3 tags are gonna be a bit weird for a while. Anyway,…

Shaka – 6 in the Morning
Sorry for the lack of updates, I was busy preparing for a DJ Set at an anime convention on Friday. Anyway, I’ve posted a couple of 92-93 tracks from Awesome so far, so here’s a later tune which is much more obscure but is a solid jam – jump up style hip hop samples with…
Xpando – Swarm
Since I’m based in the States, I’m always looking for those few breakbeat hardcore / jungle records that made it out of the US between 1992 and 95… one which has been on the top of my wants for a while is Xpando – Swarm. In case the discogs stats don’t make it clear, this…
SMF – Twisted Bungle
Here’s a pretty strange cool track by the guys who brought you “Guillotine”. This tune was featured in several big mixes including DJ Hype’s “Ruff Stuff Part 3” (a must-have if you haven’t heard it), Bukems Yamen studio mix #9, and a Gachet mix from 93. The breakproduction on this tune is a little bit…
Mad Dog – Monged Out
Here’s a wicked release by Mad Dog, known best for their tune “My God”. Both producers behind “Mad Dog” have quite a few good releases to their names – Dave Wallace did tunes as The Rave Doctor, Fugitive (“Mind Games”), Regel Alliance (“Sometimes”), under his own name on Moving Shadow, plus continues to do releases…
Jesus On E (Amiga Scene Demo)
Edit: I just checked and it looks like Mulder beat me to the punch, mentioning this demo in a comment re: the Urban Shakedown MOD I posted a while back… still deserves its own post though! – Pete I can’t believe I’ve never posted this… maybe I have and just forgot?? Either way it deserves…
Matrix Rise – D.O.Y.L.E. Factor
Here’s a wicked track I forgot I had on vinyl, thanks to the oldskool hardcore facebook group for posting it today! Matrix Rise – D.O.Y.L.E. Factor
FZ – Forbidden Zone
Here’s a cool EP I scored on a trip recently… I’ve been after this for a while, and one of the few advantages of being a total record nerd is that I can easily identify records like this simply by the label even when there’s no info on the record (why it probably managed to…
Ecology – In The House
Here’s a wicked track on Vicious Pumpin’ Plastic which I remember putting in my first ever recorded mix… not sure how to describe this tune really. It’s not particularly anthem-y, happy or dark, sample filled or stripped down… in most descriptive axes I can think of, this track sort of falls right in the middle.…
Ellis Dee, DJ Krome + Mr Time – Drum Thunder
Krome + Time are definitely one of my favorite acts from 92-95, but I haven’t posted tracks by them since their early stuff is mostly on Suburban Base (which you should go buy immediately as mp3 on Jungle.co.uk or as used vinyl Discogs/Ebay. Not many artists managed to continue to churn out anthems as this…
