I’m about to move, won’t have internet for most of the week and might not be set up to rip tracks for a while after that.. In the meantime, here’s an awesome track to tide you over. It’s by one of my favorite prolific-yet-underrated producers, DJ Massive. Slick production (especially for 91), choice vocal snippets…

DMC 91 Hardcore Mix
Here’s another DMC Hardcore megamix by The Berzerker, this time not Sub Base tracks but a variety of 91 hardcore tunes. As with the first one, it’s hard to say when one track ends and another begins, as elements of some of the tracks are used throughout. The thing that surprised me the most about…
Desired State – Dance The Dream
Here’s an all-time classic, one of Andy C’s first tunes from 1991. I found this for 50 cents at Amoeba Records in Berkley a few years ago… score! Desired State – Dance The Dream
Fozbee And Cooz – Psychology EP
Here’s one of my better finds from London this last weekend… One of those tracks I wondered about in mixes before finally finding out the name of it more recently. There’s also a 92 remix which is a bit faster and crazier, but much harder to find… for now I’m happy with this original version,…
Disorder (Joey Beltram) & House Documentary
Since I’ve been posting slightly faster jungley stuff recently, I’ll slow it down today with some 91 techno. Here’s a great lesser-known Beltram single from 1991. It’s sort of a mix of 80% energy flash, 20% Program2Beltram “Omen”. Disorder (aka Joey Beltram) – Panic Speaking of Beltram, he has a few choice lines in this…
Turntable Symphony – Instructions Of Life
Most tunes I can easily break down and describe why I think they’re so great. Then there’s tunes like this one, which I really can’t say much about but which I still love to the core. It’s just amazing uplifting 91 stuff. One thing to note is the artists behind it: Turntable Symphony was aka…
Liquid Metal – Edit Tech (Bootie Beats)
Someone asked for more 91 mentasmy tracks, and it JUST so happens I’ve been really into a relevant tune lately, so here it is. This track is off a 91 EP by Omar Santana… but there’s no 4/4 hardcore stomp here, just pure nasty 91 Belgian style goodness. I’d say the regular version of Edit…
Tribal Instincts – Coming On Strong
This first track is on the Out of Orbit label, which was a sublabel of Orbital Records (who released solid EPs like The After Dark EP and DJ Trace – Inception). Tribal Instincts – Coming On Strong Next, here’s the original M-D-Emm track as sampled in the previous tune… Tons of chopped riffs in this,…
DJ Seduction – Bleep Bleep Mash Mash
A year before putting out the massive anthem “Hardcore Heaven” on FFrreedom, DJ Seduction released a much-less-known EP of bleepy Warp style hardcore goodness. The production on this is great, with nice layering of drum machine hits with breaks, good track structure, etc. The bpm is pretty low (125 and 127 bpm for the A…
91 Whitelabels
Assuming the “tag cloud” feature on here is to be trusted, I’ve been posting lots of 92 and later stuff recently. Here’s a couple of 91 favorites. This first one I just got on my recent trip to Europe… It’s a wicked 1991 white label with really solid production and tons of changeups / choppy…
