Here’s a classy 92 tune which, if not known by name, many would definitely recognize from mixes – Seduction, Top Buzz and plenty of others top DJs played this back in 92. “Unite” is yet more wickedness from the 786/Deja Vu Recordings camp, who did “Started Again” as well as numerous other classics. No idea…

Virtual Reality – Make Some Noise
I know 1991 stuff doesn’t seem to get as much of a response when I post it as 94-95 jungle does, but here’s a ravey 91 monster which is pretty undeniable in my opinion. “Make Some Noise” is on the 786 label (side label to Deja Vu, or was it the other way around?), and…
Trans Vexed – Rambo
Another unknown gem / personal fav I feel a bit reluctant to publicly share.. gotta put this one up though since I think it’ll appeal in particular to some friends and regular supporters of this blog. I’m always on the lookout for the fastest, craziest, most mashed up early hardcore/jungle tracks I can find. While…
Naz AKA Naz – Organised Crime (Killer + Eye Spy mixes)
I’ve already posted plenty about 786/Deja Vu, but here’s two belters which I haven’t yet mentioned. “Organised Crime” was a large track perhaps on par with Naz AKA Naz’s other big tune “Started Again”… both of these were featured on comps back in the day, with “organised crime” being on one volume of Kickin’s Hardcore…
Doctor In the Tardis
Here’s a few Doctor Who related tunes. First up is a track by Kay 9 aka Blame of “Music Takes You” fame. While most early Blame tracks were anthemy melodic endeavors, Kay 9 was sort of Blame’s more raw jungle/hardcore alias. Aside from the Doctor Who theme, “Who’s in the House?” also samples the intro…
Recall – King of Rock
A friend borrowed my turntable needles so I haven’t been able to rip vinyl for the past few days. Therefore, here’s a track off a CD compilation. Incidentally, this comp also features the last track I posted (Raving Mad – Adrenaline), though it’s cut a minute or two short on there. This track is also…
Raving Mad – Adrenaline (Remix)
I’ve had this tune stuck in my head for a while now… I’m pretty sure I didn’t even like it that much the first few times I heard it, but between the piano part and the “we’re gonna rock you” chant, it’s definitely wormed its way into my brain. Raving Mad – Adrenaline (Remix)
Krazy Kidz – Volume 1
Here’s another one of the underrated tracks on 786 Records/Deja Vu. I believe this tune is produced by Dream, who (as somebody pointed out in the comments on this blog) also did the great “Power of Darkness” tune which I have yet to score. This track takes about a minute and a half to get…
Tranquil – You Got It
HOW GOOD is 786 / DEJA VU RECORDS?!!!! You can keep your “Sweet Harmony” and “Don’t Go”. That stuff is OK, but when push comes to shove I’ll always choose crazy distorted rage music requiring 2 showers after each listen, like this tune and the others on 786/Deja Vu. Speaking of which… If anyone can…
Deja Vu / 786 Recordings
Two of my favorite 90-92 labels which not many people seem to care about are Deja Vu and its affiliate label 786 Recordings. In particular, releases by Naz Khan and David Hope under various names/combinations: Naz Aka Naz, Recall, Mind of Kane, Dread, etc. One thing which makes these labels so fun is that, for…
