Here’s a B side gem from one of the Bad Influence (Pascal, Cobbler and Jack Horner) EPs. This EP is probably much better known for “Thoughts of an Innocent Mind”, the anthem-y A side track with easily identifiable “can’t stop this feeling… we are free” vocals. That’s certainly why I tracked the EP down initially.…

Secret Squirrel – D.D.T.
Serious 92 classic here… I already posted the later remix of this tune here, it’s only fair I post the original as well. Bogwoppa/Dance Bass was known for having rougher than usual tracks with loads of crazy samples. his track sort of shows the nascent sound of the label while being more stripped down than…
A-Sides / Cool Hand Flex / Uncle 22 live PA from 1992
thanks to A-sides for posting this on soundcloud… download is enabled so nab it while you can! This is a recording of a live P.A i used to perform back in 1992, The pre jungle days with Cool Hand Flex and Uncle 22 when we were all based out of De Underground Records in East…
Menace Makes 3 – Feel the Friction on My Feet
Been slack for a few days now so here’s a banger to make up for it… super catchy poppy stuff from Menace Makes 3 (aka Dylan Rhymes). This tune is in line with the other big Menace Make 3 tunes “Do you feel What I’m Feeling” and “Pure Hysteria”. Certainly not the most experimental or…
Blog to the Oldskool Radio – November 7th
Here’s the set for jungletrain this last Wednesday, November 7th. I think it turned out to be a pretty well rounded selection of stuff from the blog ( click through on the tracklisting to get to the tunes), augmented with vinyl and a few curveballs tracks (someone mentioned a grime track in chat so I…
Subway – Launch Pad
Seeerious 92 banger for you all today… here’s a track I bought years and years ago and totally forgot the name of, even though I’ve probably had that ragga vocal breakdown running through my head ever since I first heard it. I’m guessing I missed it on my shelves since I tend to think of…
Krazy Kid & Uncle – Dick Turpin Remix
More crazy 92 sounds… De Underground and their associated labels did quite a few releases which as a whole are a bit underrated in comparison to other labels’ output at the time. Rather than going for simple cheesy piano anthems, a lot of their earliest tunes had strange sanmples, raw production, and in general are…
More Bass Than Fingers – Batfink
Here’s a fun 92 track released on the label J4M, who put out Nebula 2 Flatliners and a few of the good Bass Ballistics EPs among others. No idea about the artist, it’s a bit strange though… despite not being that rare in terms of pressing size or demand, I almost never see this EP…
Industrial Espionage – 4 U 2 B In XTC EP
Big in-demand 92 whitelabel for today! “4 U 2 B In XTC” was an EP by Grant Nelson, the man behind Wishdokta / many of the great Kickin’ Records releases as well as one of UKG’s progenitors. This EP, done under the one-off “Industrial Espionage” alias, might be just a little bit rougher around the…
Tango And Dom – My Mind Is Going (Remix)
Serious tuneage here… sorry the rip doesn’t sound that good, it’s from the 2002 reissue of the original EP, which includes this rare remix which was only ever on dubplate. To be honest, the remix sounds a bit like it might have just been recorded off of plate, but the music still shines through regardless……
