First post of the singles I nabbed on my UK trip, here’s a great little 94 EP from DJ Infinity aka Bill Vega, who more recently has done breaks tunes with Paul Smailes aka New Decade (pretty sure I posted a mix by them) and was otherwise involved with tracks on the out of romford label. “Eternal” is a really solid jungle track, I think the other side is more popular since it’s an amen tear out tune (and those usually win out), but this B side is the one that does it for me… layered up hotpants break + one of those classic oldskool samples reversed + sinister pianos + what sounds like a lowpassed digeridoo. Cool stuff, not exceedingly technical or brilliant sequencing-wise, but more than does the trick and a sick vibey track for sure.

Is it me, or is that that eerie sample that Source Direct and Photek also like to use so much at 2:12?
Nice one!
yup! if I’m hearing it right, I think it might be a pitched up version of a classic sample from an early sample CD< which you can hear better at the start of this track: http://blogtotheoldskool.com/?p=25
