Here’s a wicked track on what I think is Tech Itch’s first EP , released on Ibiza Records. The EP is good overall: maybe a bit inconsistent, but at least 2 of the tracks are really strong, especially for fans of low-fi grimey 92 tunes. Here’s my favorite track. Impossibly fast breaks with crazily panned…

Tim Taylor – Istanbul (Taktix Remix)
Here’s a top favorite of mine. You may have heard the B side of this (“The Way”), as it’s been remixed a few times and features the classic Top Buzz sample “Are you really ready for some bloodclat jungle techno??!!!” Great tune, but the Istanbul Remix wins for me by far. The original of “Istanbul”…
Jungle Pirate – Mutiny On The Bounty
Don’t let the intro fool you, this track means business…”Mutiny” mashes up samples from a few big hardcore tracks (Trip To The Moon 3, Clarkee “I Get Hype”, etc), along with 2 sick synth lines which I can’t place right now (maybe one or both is original?). This artist was also AKA Jungle Buddha, who…
Dara @ Elements in Boston, Thursday Jan 7th
For the New England people checking this site (google analytics tells me there’s some of you): DJ Dara is playing an oldskool set at Elements tommorow night, Thursday January 7th. His oldskool sets KILL, perfect combination of known and unknown tracks, mixed well with plenty of variety and a ton of energy. This set is…
System Exclusive – The Second EP
Here’s another nice single on Little Giant… “Fusion” starts off with a great eerie sample I’d love to source but simply have no idea about… I know it was also used by DJ Lee in both “A Touch of Darkness” and his track on the Legendary Vol 3 comp on Legend Recs. It’s a bit…
Another good documentary thanks to B2VOS
I thought I’d seen most of these but hadn’t seen this one before. Features footage of Liam from The Prodigy’s’s home studio, SL2 live PA, Altern8, etc.
DA + JMV – Koolectro
Here’s a strange record I took a chance on because I was already buying other tunes from someone selling it…. It’s not technically a 90-95 uk track, but sounds like it and was released around 96 in Canada. The EP features two tracks by the Centurions (which I can’t remember at all), and two tracks…
George Peckham (“A Porky Prime Cut”) Interview
Thanks to Eyeski on B2VOS for posting this, great interview w/ George Pekham of “a Porky Prime Cut” fame. Here’s a Partial Discography of records he’s cut which I’m sure doesn’t even scratch the surface.
Force Mass Motion – Jack of Diamonds
I can’t believe I’ve gone this long without posting anything on Rabbit City, as it’s a choice label run by Gordon Edge (of “Compnded” fame) and Colin Faver of Kiss FM. Aside from putting out a bunch of FMM EPs, Rabbit City also released the Digital Domain EP (that “I need relief” track, bound to…
Criminal Set – Time Lord
Here’s a wicked single on One Nation Records. No idea about the artist or engineer, but One Nation also released a couple of tight Bizzy B Eps. The A-side of this is a solid amen track, but this B-side tune is the one that wins it for me – an insane glorious mess of a…
