Comababy - Nice'n Nasty - 21-Nov-06 01:47 AM
One of the lowest rated Ruffneck releases, but in my opinion Absolutely Brilliant.
Comababy was years ahead of his time with his darker, rougher sound. Although this record contains some more melodic material (A1 and B1) they still have his intuitive off-standard arrangement and edits, while the melodies themselves are really nice as well (check out the grinding synths), riding the rhythms and taking you away. The B2 is a fascinating abstract track, demonstrating Comababy's abilities with analog instruments. As for the B1.. that bassline!!!
While this record needs some getting used to, and is not very well suited to play out in a dj-set, it's an absolute jewel to listen to, has been a massive inspiration for me as a producer and sits among the royalty of my record collection.
Meagashira - Through Inner Core - 13-Feb-06 09:44 AM
The melody does not slow down in the arrangement. I mix this record at parties almost every weekend and it's a breeze. Never failed on it yet. Some people might the melody in their heads, making it impossible to mix - which can happen, I experience this effect myself too on a couple of records, it's a personal thing. I love this track, it's one of the labels biggest hits and still does really well on the dancefloor nowadays.

Tapage - Phataa Diin God E.P. - 15-Jul-05 05:47 AM
Ophidian takes a side-step to Bionic together with his friend Tapage. This is Tapage's first hardcore release, although he did some work on Ophidian's track Mantaray and the Butterfly VIP interlude (sound design and editing).
