Wow, I can’t believe I’ve gone 5 years writing this blog without posting about Sub Love… I think I’ve been subconsciously holding off just so I’d have something special to post on a rainy day. Well today looks pretty miserable out, so I guess now is as good a time as any! Sub Love was…

M.A.D. – Drum Dance
Here’s a longtime favorite, not particularly hard to find or pricey but I can’t say I’ve ever heard it played. M.A.D. (Mental and Dangerous) did a lot of EPs spread over a few labels, including M.A.D. (his own label), Direct Force, Renk, and a nice jungle remix on Greensleeves. Some of his tunes are more…
Da Dread – Subconscious Fears
Well, that was a nice vacation from posting… time to start chucking tunes up again though! Be sure to check the site next few days, I’m going to try to post a fair bit of stuff. First up, a nice 93 track all about the drum programming/processing. Amens get pitched up and down, doubled up,…
Rob Base + DJ EZ Rock – Break of Dawn (In the Jungle)
Here’s a little something different for the blog… recently I nabbed a few cheap mid 90’s records (eurodance, hiphop, etc) with jungle remixes on them, from that couple year bubble when jungle first blew up internationally and all sorts of mainstream stuff had a jungle remix. I figured they’d mostly be crap (at least when…
Harlequin – Fuck You And Your Family
It’s Christmas Eve, rather than posting an X-mas track like Santa Hardcore and the 7 Midgets, here’s a totally crazy 95 amen smasher for people who don’t see their family much and are currently being reminded why. Some aggressive choppy intro beats lead to a vocal snippet of Robert Deniro from “the Untouchables”, crashing into…
Bunjy & Cridge – Dopin’ Em Up!
OK, so this one will definitely NOT be up everyone’s alley… it’s some SERIOUSLY grimey low fi stuff. This EP makes Dance bass / Bogwoppa sound like big studio rave anthems in comparison. Also, I have to admit that the low fi / dodgy nature of these tunes isn’t entirely compensated for by the song…
CMC – Techno Drome
Here’s a totally mental favorite from 92, on the Ibiza sublabel Limited E Edition. It just popped to mind because someone from Well Rounded Records posted a youtube video that happened to be the the main sample source for the track: I always thought the end of the sample sounded like it was saying “mother…
Vicious Crew – No Politics Vol. 2
Tonight’s tune is some seriously chopped hardcore/jungle from a crew of 3 producers, including someone related to the Ibiza/Noise Factory records camp: Big Vern aka Colin Biggerstaff. Colin also did EPs on Boogie Beat, Camden Tunes, World Bass, etc. I can’t say I’m the biggest fan of the first Vicious Crew EP, it’s good but…
The Junglist – Aliens Pt. 1
Here’s a jungle tune from 94 which sounds more like something from 1992… super low fi choppy breaks + heavy heavy bass. I’m not sure if this is by the same “The Junglist” as on F Project, as the production doesn’t really sound that similar. The Junglist – JSI001 B2
Wriggler Bascombe – Final Battle
I sort of go through phases of liking this tune a fair bit and not as much. “Final Battle” is a nutty 1993 amen track utilizing a ’92 sampletastic method of songwriting – throw everything but the kitchen sink in there, and see what sticks. To that end, we get video game bleeps, kung fu…
