Pretty much all the SUAD stuff paved the way for what came to be known as JUNGLE/DRUM AND BASS. Wipe the needle uses samples from KLF and a simple 303 bassline along with a rollin break.Simple but classic. This sound defines an era of british dance music.
I first started playing S.U.A.D records when they first started out. Raw breaks with a mad method for sampling rock and pop tunes. I took these records to Australia with me in 1991 and it blew up dance-floors and Raves everytime they got dropped. Jugglin was an anthem in Perth, tracks like this went on to inspire many of todays Drum and Bass producers.
