When I posted an Aphrodite track recently, it reminded me of another great track he (co)produced. Pretty much everyone who reads this site knows about Some Justice<\/a>. here’s the video in case you’re the one person who doesn’t:

\nWhile “Some Justice” was a huge tune caned by everyone and their immediate family, there was another track on some pressings of the “Some Justice EP” which which in my opinion is every bit as good. “Summer Break” contains choppy beats ala The Moonwalk EP<\/a>, plus some bare bones hits making up the music – there’s few elements, but they all work well. This track was also sampled in China White – High & Dry<\/a> to good effect.

As an added bonus, here’s a MOD file for “Some Justice”. I don’t think it’s the original since they supposedly used two amigas for that, and I’m pretty sure MED\/Octamed had its own format for files. Still, it’s fun to see someone manage to cram the whole song into 4 channels. To play it, you either need a compatible audio player (winamp on PC, not sure what works for mac), or a full blown tracker program.
\nedit: you also need a program to uncompress this RAR file since my hosting company is disallowing files of extention type .MOD for some reason \ud83d\ude15<\/i>

\nIf anyone has any other oldschool-related MOD files, send them my way! <\/p>\n

Finally, here’s some scans of an article on Urban Shakedown from some Amiga magazine in 92… click on the images to see full size scans. Thanks to whoever originally posted these on DOA!
