Anyone dancing in the early uk rave scene,similar to basement records,would of heard these classics--and they are and always will be--this label had seminal trax like rabbit city 4 "everybody reach up,dont stop" that ravers loved back in the day---its a nostalgic catalogue to my youth and many others--they had a power and direction to the hardcore/techno unmatched to this day! quality....

This label was a milestone in groundbreaking techno-hardcore it inspired me a lot and pushed all the way through up untill the late 90s.. radically superb..

When I was a fresh faced grommet and first got into Techno in 1990, I used to loathe this sort of stuff with a passion (...it's got a VOCAL ???)
Then, as time went past and Techno died out post '93 - in Adelaide at any rate, it suddenly seemed to make a whole lot of sense...party tracks for party people...
Proof that these tracks have lasted the acid test of time.

(I missed out on a whole lot of excellent tracks because of this, which is why the day I found > 30 dog-eared Edge & Rabbit City Records at this PawnBroker, hiding behind "The Best of Bread" & some Tina Turner records (1.00 $AUD, with 50% off - 50 c a copy !!) it went down in my books as a sign from Synclavier II, the Tekno Deity : )
