All in all,  I&#8217;m quite happy with the track selection on this &#8211; one of my needles was going a bit so it&#8217;s not crystal clear but still sounds OK to me. While playing these tunes, it struck me how many of these are by Marc Mac &#038; Dego (aka 4 Hero) under various guises &#8211; these guys really put out an unbelievable amount of great material back then!! <BR><br \/>\nTowards the end of the mix, it becomes less a properly selectored representatio, and more a focus on some of my personal favorites from 98-02&#8230; eg lots of Leon Mar\/Arcon 2 because that guy was KILLING IT back then and is a top personal favorite. There&#8217;s even a worn out unreleased dubplate towards the end which he gave away as part of some competition in 96\/97, that I picked up second-hand some years ago&#8230; <BR>Definitely check this and be sure to check all the original reinforced releases (some of which are for sale digitally) because, as this mix proves, there&#8217;s untold gems on the label!<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/label\/Reinforced+Records\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogtotheoldskool.com\/blog\/images\/reinforced_logo.jpg\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/download.php?y4444maayvna7q3\">Blog to the Oldskool &#8211; all Reinforced Records Special Dec 5 2012<\/a><Br><a class=\"wp-embedded-audio\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/download.php?y4444maayvna7q3\">http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/download.php?y4444maayvna7q3<\/a>\n<blockquote><p><B>Tracklisting<\/B><br \/>\n4 Hero &#8211; Mr. Kirk\u2019s Nightmare<br \/>\n4 Hero &#8211; Combat Dance<br \/>\n4 Hero &#8211; The Scorcher (Dance Mix)<br \/>\nCode 071 &#8211; A London Someting Dis<br \/>\nManix &#8211; I Can\u2019t Stand It<br \/>\nUSI &#8211; King of Dubrock<br \/>\nNick OD &#8211; Let Your Mind Be Free<br \/>\n4 Hero &#8211; Time to Get Ill<br \/>\nSudden Def &#8211; Fall Like Rain<br \/>\nLewi Cifer &#8211; Confidence<br \/>\nManix &#8211; Feel Real Good<br \/>\nOpen Skies &#8211; Deep In Your Eyes<br \/>\nNebula II &#8211; X-Plore H-Call<br \/>\nManix &#8211; Hardcore Junglism<br \/>\nRufige Crew &#8211; Darkrider<br \/>\nOne II One &#8211; Legend<br \/>\n4 Hero &#8211; We Bring the Trophy<br \/>\nTom &#038; Jerry &#8211; We Can Be Free<br \/>\nUnderground Software &#8211; Electronic Pig<br \/>\nTek 9 &#8211; Just a Dream Part 2<br \/>\nDoc Scott &#8211; Dark Angel Remix<br \/>\n4 Hero &#8211; Students of the Future (Rufige Cru Remix)<br \/>\nTom + Jerry &#8211; Shell010?<br \/>\nNookie &#8211; Sound of Music<br \/>\nTom + Jerry &#8211; Lets Your Spirits Rise<br \/>\n4 Hero &#8211; Journey From the Light<br \/>\nYounghead &#8211; Bad Bad Man<br \/>\nTom + Jerry &#8211; The One Reason<br \/>\nManix &#8211; Alright With Me<br \/>\n4 Hero &#8211; In the Shadow Part 3<br \/>\nNookie &#8211; Godzilla<br \/>\nDoc Scott &#8211; Paradise Lost<br \/>\nInternal Affairs &#8211; Find A Way<br \/>\n?
