On with the obscurities… I picked this up after checking out a snippet of it which turned out to be from a different record. Ah well, this EP ended up being a decent slab of wax too. The B side (featured here) is a nice laid back breakbeat techno track, well arranged and tasteful. I…

Glide – All Right (Remix)
Here’s another “super cheap / why isn’t this record more in-demand?” track from Absolute 2. This remix record and the original EP were released on a sublabel called Absolute Groove which only released these two records. This mix was also released on the XL Recordings “Four Play” EP, along with tracks by Noise Factory, EQ…
Persian Prince – The Gorgon Wise EP
I had no idea about this record, checked it out since I didn’t recognize the title and was not disappointed – weird and cool ragga jungle engineered by Bizzy B. The timestretched vocal bit reminds me of Formula 7 “Timestretch the Bass”, and while I probably like that tune a bit more overall, this track…
Nice documentary clip on Sub Base / the Prodigy
I haven’t gone hunting for rave videos on youtube in a bit, but someone on b2vos just posted this documentary which is pretty nice. I still can’t believe how young all these producers were when they made these tunes!
The Headhunter – To the Sky
I got an email recently from someone who had run into an old friend of mine (hey Aaron!), who asked them to tell me to post more Psychic Parasite stuff… unfortunately, there’s only those 2 EPs, which I’ve already posted tracks from. However, Martin Damm (Biochip C) has plenty of other great tracks – here’s…
Mo2Vation – Animate (X-Plain Mix)
For as many years as I’ve been collecting this music, there’s always still some big singles that end up completely eluding my notice, or turning out to be something which I didn’t give enough of a chance to the first time I heard it. Here’s a perfect example – someone from another blog wrote to…
Prodigy 5/20/2009 in Boston
I ended up going to see The Prodigy last night in Boston, thanks to my buddy Greg hooking me up with a pass. Baltimoroder and Rage FuXX opened the show, playing lots of newer crowd pleasing stuff before slamming into some big oldschool, happy hardcore and dnb right at the end (to the screams of…
The Dica Crew – You Got Me
I just got this single recently, thinking it was by Dica of the “Weekend Rush” EPs on Boogie Beat. It sounds like it might not be, but I’m still not certain one way or the other… regardless, it’s decent 92 stuff that I’ve never heard before. The breaks aren’t as choppy or as heavy as…
Free album by The Moog
Andrew Wright aka The Moog recently posted an album of his tunes for free download…. I believe it’s been for sale on CD since 2006, but now anyone can grab it. The album is a mixture of styles, and includes two classics “Jungle Muffin” and “Rush Hour (Obviously High Remix)” remastered and sounding great, plus…
Aurora – Moons & Melody EP
Here’s a nice EP that I finally got recently, even though it had been on my want list for years and years. Aurora did several great singles – the track they’re probably known best for is “Voice of Buddha”, a classic featured on the “Hit The Decks” megamix. Their single on Homegrown is also excellent…
