Someone requested a Macka Brown track for the blog recently. Since I don’t have the one they asked for, here’s a great white label by him instead. For those who don’t know, Macka Brown is AKA Bug Kahn, of Bug Kahn and the Plastic Jam “Made in 2 Minutes” fame. Most of his EPs around…
Selling records tommorow (Apr 7th) at Boston TOGETHER record fair
Oops, I forgot to post about this earlier… no big deal since there’s not many Boston people who read this anyway, but worth a shot… I’m going to be selling records at the Together Music Festival tommorow. I’ll definitely have some oldskool there (mainly doubles, etc), but also lots of assorted house, dance, whatever. Lots…
Le’gato – One Nation (United Nations Mix)
Classy tune here I know next to nothing about, this EP uses the same “let’s get together” sample as one of my least favorite of the hardcore “classics”, Satin Storm “Let’s Get Together”, as well as the italian rave classic RAF “we’ve got to live together”. It’s definitely more on the housey side of things…
Imaginary Forces – Hardcore Phonography 1995 mix, part 1
Sorry for no posts recently, to make it worse I played a crazy fun show w/ Todd Edwards last night and now my needles are acting a bit wonky. In the meantime, Anthony Imaginary Forces (who you might have seen on the comments section here or if you’ve checked out some of the ustreams or…
M.A.N.I.C. – Feel It (Jungle Mix)
Looong time favorite track here, by the producers of I’m Coming Hardcore… be sure to check that link for a chill-inducing video of Spanish ravers going CRAZY to that tune. This track is from a bit later, using some oh-so-familiar but totally amazing samples: The Beatboxing Break from James Brown “Godfather Running the Joint” as…
The Panacea – Big Bad Head Mix part 2
The Panacea just posted Pt 2 of the classic Big Bad Head mix from 2002… I posted that one previously on this blog, and this new one is very in-line with it, though it maybe gets even a bit MORE diverse reaching for a few jungle techno classics that weren’t in the first. Plus there’s…
Short Pirate Radio / Jungle Documentary
Thanks to Graham the Invisible Man for this one… great little documentary!
Lloydie Crucial & Peter Ranking – The Cow (Don Gorgon House)
Here’s a track I put in my recent mix for beantownboogiedown.com (cop that if you haven’t plenty of great lesser known tunes in there w/ a full tracklist provided). This tune in particular is a nice 91 ragga hardcore jam by Lloydie Crucial & Peter Ranking, who collabed on a number of great ragga hardcore…
Chris Paul – Music Is My Life (Remix)
Here’s a nice track I picked up in Toronto maybe 6 or 7 years ago, by Chris Paul. Paul is quite well known in the rave scene for his work in Isotonik, whose track “Different Strokes” is a huge anthem. He also was promoter of the absolutely massive Orange raves of the early 90’s. Music-wise…
Kingsound – PPI and PPII
Obscurity hounds, this one’s for you… two of the more unknown tunes I’ve posted in a while. One of these two records I found while scrounging in a bargain bin on my last UK trip some months ago… waited till now to post so I could try to find more info on it. However, while…
