The Minister So Sinister – Battlestar Hardcore EP

Here’s a wicked single by Julian Cobb (aka Hellfish, Minister So Sinister, Undercover Elephant, Zookeeper’s Revenge and a bunch of other aliases), released on the Bogwoppa label in 92. The title track samples the “Battlestar Galactica” theme, coupling it with a nasty amen which might be the The Chuck’s Beats / Slowjam amen… it’s hard…

MA1 – The Switch/Ruffige (Remix) – Formation 39

Compared to some of the stuff that Pete’s been uploading, these tunes are hardly obscurities, but I reckon that Formation are one of the most under appreciated of the prolific hardcore/jungle labels.
