Normally I don’t really post mixes here unless they’re specially done for the blog, but here’s a fun one I’ve enjoying lately. Thanks to Nebbers for pointing me to this and Mr Sav for making it! For those more, erm, oldskool of you online oldskool anoraks (mailing list / geocities / angelfire type site days),…
Woohoo!
Finally made it to 1000! Stay tuned to the FB page for a special treat posted there this weekend. I could probably try to code some premium content as an “app” page where you’re forced to like it, but… nah… can’t be bothered, so I’m putting you all on the honor system 🙂 I know…
Mad Dog – Secret Garden
So about this track: it’s a 1993 dark/mellow amen one, produced by Mad Dog a.k.a Shaun O’ Hara and Dave Wallace, who went on to become a member of famous trio Aquasky. But before that, him and Shaun were putting out tunes like My God, Fugitive (under the Fugitive alias), Rumbled, Control International and many…
Blog to the Oldskool Radio – August 25th, 2013 (1992-1993)
Here’s the jungletrain radio show from two weeks ago… I forgot to press record when it was on the air, so I’ve kept the records around in a crate meaning to rerecord it in some form. It’s almost time for the next radio show so I finally gave it a quick try last night, leaving…
Detromental – X Amount of Respect
Since Tim’s going to have the 95/96 stuff covered nicely for a bit, here’s another 92 white label ripper… this time more of an in-demand one which has always been a bit pricey/hard to nab, though I was finally able to score it earlier this year on-the-reasonable. Detromental did a number of other whitelabels which…
PHP – Iree
Here’s a pretty obscure fun ragga hardcore EP I nabbed a while ago… I’d never heard it in mixes but found it while grabbing a couple other records from someone online. Honestly I could see how it might not be for everyone as it’s not a super polished hardcore tune or full of crazy samples……
Flynn & Flora – New World
Bit of background info behind this one, Flynn & Flora are the duo of J. Thompson (brother of DJ Krust IIRC) & F. Fiakkas. They debuted on well known Bristol label Full Cycle & had a few releases on there, before setting up their own outlet for their tunes, called Independent Dealers, where they put…
Oscar Da Grouch – Some Where
Here’s an interesting US jungle track from 1996, by N2O-affiliated LA jungle producer Oscar DA Grouch. Despite being from 96, this tune sounds much more like a 92-93 tune to me, with extra raw sound and the most bare bones of samples. The other tracks on this EP are more in-line with jungle circa its…
Jungle invading this blog….
I’ve gone ahead and added Tim Reaper as a contributor to the blog… please stand by for way too many 94-95 amen tunes posted by someone who was possibly not born yet when these tunes were released.
“All Black” Jungle Fever Documentary
Here’s a nice jungle documentary for you all. I don’t think I’ve posted this one before, it’s got SOUR, Renk, Bukem, Trace, plenty of artists + labels in it…
