But it&#8217;s definitely not the Dr. Skuf release. In fact, the three tunes on it are hard to even compare to anything as guesswork. One sounds a bit like a classic mid-&#8217;93 Basement Records tune, one sounds similar to a 4 Hero \/ Tom &amp; Jerry production, and the last one sounds like a typical obscure &#8217;92 or &#8217;93 bedroom white, something like Reckless B &#8211; Crackman or some of the earlier Bogwoppa or Vicious Pumping Plastic releases.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s all three tracks as MP3s &#8211; can anyone solve this? At the moment it&#8217;s a mystery artist on a mystery label, and the only copy I&#8217;ve ever seen in many years of buying and selling old skool vinyl.
