With all the the heaps of praise that Zomby’s “Where were u in ’92? album received last year, I have to say I didn’t see the big deal with that one. It was good but didn’t make my head explode scanners-style or anything. On the other hand, there was another recent album of “new-oldschool” stuff…

Liquid Metal – Edit Tech (Bootie Beats)
Someone asked for more 91 mentasmy tracks, and it JUST so happens I’ve been really into a relevant tune lately, so here it is. This track is off a 91 EP by Omar Santana… but there’s no 4/4 hardcore stomp here, just pure nasty 91 Belgian style goodness. I’d say the regular version of Edit…
Good 2 Bad & Hugly Mix
Just got this posted on my myspace, checking it right now and it has some dope tunes in it (Hyper on “Thunder Grip”, Nookie “Gonna Be All Right”, etc). ASF file though so no direct link, seems to be playing fine in winamp though. 2 Bad Recordings – Oldskool Junglist Set
DJ Devine & Essence – Ease Up
This is one of my favorite tracks on Production House, super choppy cut up breakbeat goodness. The 94 Production House stuff doesn’t seem to be nearly as in demand as the earlier releases, which is a shame because they put out some wicked tracks like this one. Starting with some dicey amen snares, the breaks…
Biochip C – Agoraphobia
Here’s something a little bit different, a totally slamming acid breakbeat track by Biochip C aka Martin Damm. Mr. Damm put out some amazing tunes under a variety of aliases (including the aforementioned Biochip C, Search & Destroy, Psychic Parasite, Biobreaks, Headhunter, etc). This track is from 94 but sounds like it’d mix perfectly with…
Tango – Can’t Stop The Rush (93 Remix)
I’m posting this once since Odi dropped it in Boston on Friday, and it still kills. Tango and Ratty are about as good as 92-94 stuff gets, either each on their own, collaborating together or with others, writing tracks or DJ’ing. This tune stays true to that. Rather than being a radically different remake of…
Radagain – Johnny On Ragg
Since the purpose of this site is to post lots of lesser known gems, I try to put a fair amount of focus on non-UK tracks. Even though plenty of international hardcore singles got played by UK DJs, there were also plenty which seem to have slipped through the cracks. “Jonny On Ragg” falls in…
Raw From China – Raw From China II
Not sure what to say about this one… Nice combination of pianos and big synths. Can’t remember hearing it on any tapes. I’m not sure who Raw From China is, suppose it could be an A-Sides alias? If anyone knows, feel free to drop a comment below. Raw From China – b1 (Share004 b1)
Sub Love live @ Universe 1993
Just found this on iamdek’s excellent blog, which I don’t think I’ve ever seen before. Sub Love is a personal favorite, the live female vox get to be a bit much in this vid but respect for them for pulling it off live and not just having someone lip sync along to the tracks.
The Mover (PCP) returns?
Ryanopticon just forwarded me this new youtube video which appears to be a new track by The Mover… aka Alien Christ/White Breaks/a million others, not to mention the owner of PCP records. The last record I got from him was this EP on Tresor back in 2002, which was pretty quality. The next year he…
