Here’s something a little different for sunday… early/mid 90’s booty hiphop, which still has enough “oldskool” elements (heavy funky drummer breakbeat, acid bassline, reasonably fast tempo) to warrant me posting here. This track is also probably more obscure than anything else I’ve posted on this blog. There’s basically no info about its vinyl release on…

The Raver’s Choice – I Want Your Body
as mentioned in the comments today, I totally forgot about this EP. The Raver’s Choice (Vibes + Wishdokta) – I want your body And, my favorite MJ sampling record which I *don’t* own (but am always looking for a cheap copy of if anyone has a spare…) D Livin’ – Why
Sorry if this is in poor taste / too soon…
But, it’s the first thing that popped in my and a few other people’s heads when hearing the news: Obscure FM – Michael Jackson is In Heaven Now!
The Skunk Club & The Herb Superb – Sandman Mix
E’dam and Skuf are best known for Sensi / The More I Get, the More I Want. I also really like their “skratch the beat” release (which is easier to find than this EP and just as good), and featured it in a mix I posted a while back. Here’s a discography page containing all…
1st Prodject – Interferance
As a record collector, I’ve occasionally run into situations where I hear a track and try to get an ID for it, only to find out it’s on a record I already own. I usually take this as a sign that I’m spending too much time searching for records to buy, and not enough time…
R.I.P. Eon
“Legendary ‘rave’ producer Eon, a.k.a. Ian Loveday, passed away Wednesday, June 17, from complications with pneumonia” Another piece with lots of background information, by someone who knew him well. Sorry for the delay in posting this, needed to make time to rip some of my favorite Eon singles… massive respect to this guy. Eon –…
Dark Side of the Shroom EP
Here’s another EP that I would have no idea about if it weren’t for B2VOS, where it gets mentioned fairly regularly. This is actually a US downtempo/”trip hop”/acidy breaks EP by Omar Santana, which uses plenty of classic hiphop and rave sounds. The EP itself is strictly downtempo speed, however it can be pitched up…
Hyper-on Experience Live PA @ Dance Paradise, April 1993 Video
Endless thanks to MattyC from B2VOS for hooking me up with the original DVD for this…Matt is the same guy who also ripped the original Hyper-on Experience 92 Demo featured on here a while back. if anyone can recommend a free streaming site where I can host the full clip for this as a single…
Mine the Rhythm – Feel the Fear
Here’s a nice track I picked up in Bristol last November. It’s a tune I’d heard long ago, forgotten about, then remembered the second the needle hit the wax upon hearing it in a store. Really nasty low fi hardcore madness. The production isn’t the sharpest (though the bass is pretty nice), but who cares…
Twang – There’s No If
I found this while trying to figure out some non-UK label tracks to post. This came out on the Dutch label Dance Factory. It uses the same vocal as the recently posted Headhunter – To the Sky track, but is older and pretty straightforward 92 stuff. The main mix of this song is just as…
