I just took the week off due to being burned out from that NY NASA party as well as the Mark Archer show I did in Boston… back with a vengeance this week though, starting with this absolutely killer pretty in-demand jungle track. Pretty much all the components of this track are nice/well chosen and…
Sileni – Blog to the Oldskool radio guest mix, July 18th 2012
Here’s Sileni’s guest mix from last wednesday… Chris absolutely killed it, crazy to think this guy hasn’t even had access to a dj setup for 5,7 years now… yet he’s still able to just show up with a bunch of records selectored using one leftover turntable, and pull off a mix this coherent and tight!…
Jack Horner – After Midnight
Longtime personal favorite here, and a cheap one at that! as I’ve written about before, Jack Horner has a high “hit/miss” ratio in terms of releases – just a few under his own name (this self titled on face I posted years ago, plus two including this one on his label Spectrum), but they’re all…
Awesome rave parties near me that none of you care about since you all live in the UK or Europe
Hey, I’m doing a party in Boston with my old dj crew: It’s going to be a kind of “post-party” to the massive NASA reunion going on in New York the Saturday before, featuring 808 state, n-joi, mark, fierce ruling diva etc: There’s also a sick techno party going on that Saturday the 21st for…
Tuff to the Bone – Dancehall Junglist
Here’s the first record on the ragga jungle label Slam! records. It’s no secret that as pricey as some oldskool jungle is, if you chuck some some toasting samples on top and make sure the track has amens in it, a bunch of north american kidds in camo pants will materialize out of nowhere and…
Blog to the Oldskool Radio July 9th 2012
Little bonus session here since a reasonable time slot opened up yesterday. I followed Havoc who played an ace 92-94 selection, so I started with 94/95 and tried to work my way back to 92 to make it all symmetrical like 🙂 Blog to the oldskool Radio July 8th 2012 J&J – Physix Misterman –…
Dillinja – Untitled EP (Tough Toonz TT002)
I’m sure you all know about Dillinja, so no explanation needed this time. His early 93 singles on this label and Cybotron are some of his best stuff in my opinion, mostly narsty amen tracks. This one is no exception, combining the aforementined beats with classic moody pads ala 93/94 plus some diabolical hoover business…
Blog to the Oldskool Radio Show – July 4th 2012 (dl)
Wednesday’s show was fun! I ended up going way over because the next two shows cancelled, spun for 5 hours total. I’ve cut it down to just under 4 hours here since the last hour or so was kinda dicey and got more into 97-01 dnb… definitely doing another special set on that in the…
DJ Overload – Live at Elements 06.21.2012 Mix
Really happy to get to post this… here’s a recording of probably the most fun I’ve had at a party this year! DJ Overload is an absolute legend of the East Coast US rave scene. He’s part of a VERY small and select crew of DJs who were actually pushing UK breakbeat hardcore from the…
Timeline (free 92-97 tribute comp)
OK, even though I don’t post many new releases, time to catch up with some really worthy cool ones which I’ve seen as of late…. I should probably apologize to the guy who put this out about not posting this earlier, I actually got sent some of these with the OK to post a track…
