Beatfreaks, The (2) - Switch VIP / Get Funky - 01-Apr-07 01:56 AM
It always amazes me that tracks like the Beatfreaks' "Switch" (later enhanced to "Switch VIP") do not get the exposure and credit the tracks so richly deserve. This is an oustanding track that is highly original and of the finest quality. Tracks like this really had an influence on the emerging UK Garage genre back in 2001 but were rarely if at all played on legal radio stations. This track sold out extremely quickly in all the record stores I use yet so few people know what the track is called. Unfortunatly, yet another underground classic that the UK garage faithful will love to hear but have no idea of when it comes to identifying it. Massive respect to the Beatfreaks for an extraordinary track.

Bini & Martini - Happiness (X Men Remix) - 24-Mar-07 10:21 PM
A classic and rare underground UK Garage mix of Bini & Martini's "Happiness" track that was and still is a rarity as far as known. Stunned it was never offically released as it is such a fine remix. Composing of quite a haunting intro with the Sylvestor's unique vocals that suddenly switches into the inimmitable X-Men 2-step break and deep square wave bassline. The result is a beautifully crafted chunky track that is very uplifting but also slightly leftfield. The sound was not typical of UK garage at the time and this is a credit to the producers originality and creativity. You woud be hard pushed to hear this played out never mind find a copy these days, except perhaps thrown into the odd classic set on pirate radio or underground club event. Really love this one.

Da Posse - Strings - 27-Feb-07 11:06 PM
This twelve is probably best known for "It's My Life (Aluh Mix), which is unquestionably an outstanding underground classic. Sounding very Detroit techno-esque and very similar to 'The Dance' by Rhythim is Rhythim I wonder if Hula (Lemar Hula Mahone), who I believe was/is from Chicago, was influenced by Derrick May's equally monster creation.

Rare and very collectable, this track holds I'm sure for many people a memory of what was an amazing time in house history.

Hyper Go Go - High (Original Mixes & Remixes) - 12-May-06 08:50 AM
Undoubtedly one of the best and most memorable piano tracks ever. All the mixes on this twelve are premium quality. The piano riff is truely inspirational and one of the best ever composed for dance music in my view. A mega club classic.

Jolly Roger - Why Can't We Live Together - 19-Jan-06 03:50 PM
This 12" would be pretty mediocre if not for track B2 Ulysses (The Groove), which is incredible. Massively underground sounding and really kicks. Eddie Richards at his best.
