Dance Conspiracy – Dub War

Ok so rather annoyingly my copy of this has chapter 3 & 4 on the A side, 3, 4 & 5 on B. Am I the only one with this mispress? I don’t see it listed.

Chad Jackson remixes are bloody genius otherwise head for the original pressing

The Track "Darkest Light Sample" How Many Times As That Songs Been Sampled From 90's Old Skool Rave To Hip Hop Though To Main Stream Pop Music in The 2000'

Dub Wars By Dance Conspiracy (1992), Show Em Whatcha Got By Public Enemy (1988), Soul Food By Tuff Crew (1989), Just a Lil Dope By Masters At Work (1991), Back To The Hotel By N2Deep (1992,) Back Against The Wall by Three Six Mafia (1995), Rump Shaker By Wreckx-N-Effect (1992), You Can't See What I See By Heavy D & the Boyz (1996), Freestyle Noize By Freestylers (1998), Mad Love By Britney Spears (2001), Show Me What You Got" by Jay-Z (2006) + 10000'S More I bet

1992 really didn't get too much better than this. If you're into old school breakbeat and don't have this, are you really into it? :D

For anybody looking for a digital/CD version of Dub War (Chapter 1), it's on this release - https://www.discogs.com/Various-XL-Recordings-The-American-Chapter/master/64886

The version they put out on Metamorphosis is a little different to the XL recordings one. SO I guess an early copy will cost a small fortune these days.

First heard this on a DJ Sy Studio mix. One of the best 92 tunes without question. So many top DJ's played chapter 1. I love the euphoric female breakdown in the middle, makes it sound mellow and has that hands in the air element.

Glad I have more than one copy.

This EP is made up of 5 chapters. Each chapter manages (somehow) to be better than the preceding chapter. Perhaps it is the borrowing of past rave sounds that distinguish each chapter, perhaps it it is the faultless programming skills on display, perhaps it is the drums, perhaps it is the bass. Whatever it is this 12" demonstrates what worked so perfectly well with UK hardcore circa early 1992 - it was fucking untouchable. Perfect.

This'll annoy some people and make others leap for joy - someone's only gone and done a repress! I picked up one at IMO Records. Quality-wise, they've tried to make it look like the original but they may as well have not bothered as you can tell it's a repress immediately. Sounds like they've pressed it from an original record as the sound isn't perfect (noticeable bumps in the background when very quiet / silent).

But to all intents and purposes it's the original!
