Looong time favorite track here, by the producers of I’m Coming Hardcore… be sure to check that link for a chill-inducing video of Spanish ravers going CRAZY to that tune. This track is from a bit later, using some oh-so-familiar but totally amazing samples: The Beatboxing Break from James Brown “Godfather Running the Joint” as…

The Panacea – Big Bad Head Mix part 2
The Panacea just posted Pt 2 of the classic Big Bad Head mix from 2002… I posted that one previously on this blog, and this new one is very in-line with it, though it maybe gets even a bit MORE diverse reaching for a few jungle techno classics that weren’t in the first. Plus there’s…
Short Pirate Radio / Jungle Documentary
Thanks to Graham the Invisible Man for this one… great little documentary!
Lloydie Crucial & Peter Ranking – The Cow (Don Gorgon House)
Here’s a track I put in my recent mix for beantownboogiedown.com (cop that if you haven’t plenty of great lesser known tunes in there w/ a full tracklist provided). This tune in particular is a nice 91 ragga hardcore jam by Lloydie Crucial & Peter Ranking, who collabed on a number of great ragga hardcore…
Chris Paul – Music Is My Life (Remix)
Here’s a nice track I picked up in Toronto maybe 6 or 7 years ago, by Chris Paul. Paul is quite well known in the rave scene for his work in Isotonik, whose track “Different Strokes” is a huge anthem. He also was promoter of the absolutely massive Orange raves of the early 90’s. Music-wise…
Kingsound – PPI and PPII
Obscurity hounds, this one’s for you… two of the more unknown tunes I’ve posted in a while. One of these two records I found while scrounging in a bargain bin on my last UK trip some months ago… waited till now to post so I could try to find more info on it. However, while…
Muskogee – Drum & Bass Psykho
Sorry for the grimey rip here, my copy of this is pretty beat up… the two A-side tracks on this EP are basically sped up versions of Erik B + Rakim “Let the Rhythm Hit em” instrumental. True, other hardcore tracks use the same break as sampled in that tune (Assembly Line), or the specific…
J&J – “Sweetest Taboo” & “Boom Boom”
Here’s a 95 jungle Sade remix by Dutch producers released on a French label. This means that the producer duo who did this is NOT the same J&J as from Stricty Underground, instead these two were Eurodance/Happy Hardcore producers most likely jumping the jungle bandwagon when tracks like “Incredible” blew up. You can kind of…
Doncaster Warehouse 2 hour video
I posted that now infamous Doncaster warehouse clip about a year ago here… just saw it reposted, followed a few links and ended up on this extended version with over 2 hours of footage! Def worth taking a look
Smith Inc – Palamino
Here’s a tune I can’t imagine anyone taking issue with… maybe not known all that well by name, it was battered in seemingly ALL the mixtapes circa 93 by a decent cross-section of big DJs. Written by Simon Bassline Smith, the popularity of “Palamino” was probably down to how it stood out as a harbinger…
