    This is the first Meat Beat track i ever heard. It was on a video called 'The Evil Acid Baron Show'. Meat Beat's track was not actually mixed up into this acid trip mix but placed near the end of the video along with Baby Ford as separate videos. Totally imprinted on my brain is the S&M styled video. Lots of shiny leather knicker clad girls in cages, a guy on the decks in a straight jacket and huge nostrils from which one of the band members is coming out of of. Angst ridden with stomping beats that was so way ahead of anything anybody else was doing at the time and lets face it...Meat Beat have been credited as being the inventors of breakbeat as we know it. Kick-ass beats with sampling work to die for this really was one of the tunes from my early rave days (not that it was being played in the raves) that still has the same excitement when played today. Classic!
