Here’s a really obscure 95 jungle EP.. Despite the record name it’s basically a Ragga jungle Record, though the music tends more towards dark stuff. Beat production isn’t amazing but definitely good enough, an interesting one to check for sure. Watika – Dark Mix 2
Impact Crew – Feels Good
Another serious Flex / De Underground related jam…. the melodies in here really couldn’t be anyone else! Aside from that we get nice breakbeats and a “Groove is in the Heart” sample. Impact Crew – Feels Good.mp3link removed pending posting on hardcore junglism
Killersound – What Is A Ragga Twin
First tune back, this EP is a definite longtime obscurity / second-hand bargain. According to a friend, “Ravin 2 Heaven” used to get played a lot, but my favorite here is the first track “What is a Ragga Twin”. Featuring a few super catchy ragga vocal bits (I assume at least one of which is…
…Back in Action!!
Well, that was a nice vacation!!! I took 2 weeks off from posting on here due to work commitments plus a few music things in Boston (organizing a crazy show that involved a DJ in France live streaming an A/V set in high-def to the party, plus played a mega b2b2b 3 hour set at…
Hyper-On Experience official facebook page / soundcloud
I was really excited to see today that Alex Banks of E-Z Rollers has set up an official HYPER-ON EXPERIENCE facebook page, which already has some great stories about the history of the group. There’s also an official soundcloud page now too! If go check the earliest posts on this blog, you know these guys…
DJ B + EZM – Shocking to the Break of Dawn
Here’s another track I played on the 92 show but never posted the set from, so here it is in ripped form… it’s a really cool whitelabel release of solid hardcore from back in the day, which Vinyl Connection reissued about 10 years ago. Back before Discogs became such a force in second-hand online record…
NTT – BadBoy Spirit
So I did a 1992 special on the Blog to the Oldskool Jungletrain.net radio show 2 weeks ago, but there were some issues with the stream which also affected the recording. Shame, since I played some nice less obvious 92 tunes including this one. Most of the Biology releases are a combination of stabby hardcore…
DJ D-Lux – Taking Me Higher
Here’s a nice choppy amen tune by Deja Vu FM Don DJ D-Lux. Not much to say about this one, though it’s produced and written by DJ D-Lux, it’s on a Brain Records related sublabel and definitely has that brain studio drum production. I remember finding this one when buying records at Bizzy B’s studio…
Abreaction – The Mind
Something a bit different here… I remember this tune being listed on some website a few years ago as “experimental hardcore.. for the deeper heads!” or something to that extent. Listening to the tune then I thought “I don’t get it, these beats are pretty straightforward/not that choppy? sounds pretty normal to me”. I guess…
Sound Corp – Regen-Time (Mix 2)
Here’s a gem I found in my collection while pulling tracks for yesterday’s radio show… Most people probably know Sound Corp for their dark anthem “Dream Finder”, probably not as much for this tune (or if so, possibly for a different mix of it – there’s at least 2 others). This mix of Regen-Time is…
