Here’s a pretty underrated track in my opinion. I can understand why it’s not heavily sought after, since it’s not exactly a massive catchy anthem or anything. Still, the programming is pretty crazy in this – quite a few interesting changeups etc. I definitely prefer this EP to The Timelike EP on Big Giant, and…

Clarky & Dillinja – Dark Science
It’s been a while since I posted something proper rare, so here’s a hard-to-find one-sided EP by Dillinja and Clarky. Dillinja needs no introduction, Clarky is actually one member of Defender who I posted a track by a few days ago.. “Dark Science” does what it says on the label, and is a solid slice…
Defender – Feel It (Bass)
Oh my gosh, what an anthem… can’t believe I’ve held out this long before posting this one. The title says it all really – nasty darkside with absolutely massive sinister bass omnipresent in the track, and with occasional vocal snippets and break layers dropping in and out to keep things interesting. Aside from this EP,…
Free Spirit – Optical Illusion
I’ve been kind of slow to upload lately since my main PC died, I can rip vinyl from my laptop but the software I wrote which auto-tags / labels /adds artwork to mp3s the way I like isn’t on this machine. So the ID3 tags are gonna be a bit weird for a while. Anyway,…
Xpando – Swarm
Since I’m based in the States, I’m always looking for those few breakbeat hardcore / jungle records that made it out of the US between 1992 and 95… one which has been on the top of my wants for a while is Xpando – Swarm. In case the discogs stats don’t make it clear, this…
SMF – Twisted Bungle
Here’s a pretty strange cool track by the guys who brought you “Guillotine”. This tune was featured in several big mixes including DJ Hype’s “Ruff Stuff Part 3” (a must-have if you haven’t heard it), Bukems Yamen studio mix #9, and a Gachet mix from 93. The breakproduction on this tune is a little bit…
Mad Dog – Monged Out
Here’s a wicked release by Mad Dog, known best for their tune “My God”. Both producers behind “Mad Dog” have quite a few good releases to their names – Dave Wallace did tunes as The Rave Doctor, Fugitive (“Mind Games”), Regel Alliance (“Sometimes”), under his own name on Moving Shadow, plus continues to do releases…
Jesus On E (Amiga Scene Demo)
Edit: I just checked and it looks like Mulder beat me to the punch, mentioning this demo in a comment re: the Urban Shakedown MOD I posted a while back… still deserves its own post though! – Pete I can’t believe I’ve never posted this… maybe I have and just forgot?? Either way it deserves…
Ellis Dee, DJ Krome + Mr Time – Drum Thunder
Krome + Time are definitely one of my favorite acts from 92-95, but I haven’t posted tracks by them since their early stuff is mostly on Suburban Base (which you should go buy immediately as mp3 on Jungle.co.uk or as used vinyl Discogs/Ebay. Not many artists managed to continue to churn out anthems as this…
Rhythm Section – The Chainsaw
Anyone well into their oldskool should know about Rhythm Section – they were a rave group featured Rennie Pilgrim (now better known for his breaks work and Thursday Club label), Ellis Dee, Nicholas Scott (aka Newton), and Richie T (aka MK13, who I posted a great track by a while ago). Between them, they did…
