    This was massive in the Greater Manchester area circa 92-93 partly due to heavy rotation from Stu Allan on his breakbeat hardcore radio show on Key 103. Absolutely wicked ruff ardcore with ragga samples. Copies were still being hawked around the GM record stores in 94 by the producer but the time had passed sadly, as the breakbeat sound was progressing and diverging rapidly at that time.

      Guy who made this has been found via Facebook. Made in 93, BW stands for beats working, name of the studio where it was made

          Someone tries to make a bucket of maney out off this???? Ok, i like first of many too but 215 € for this is really a very bad deal....100 of other tracks are way better and coste about 10£ .I think that some guys take as fo suckas...Definitely don' t worth it, sorry mate.

            Nothing special.didn't really like it. A few years ago nobody wanted it. I sold a few copies over the years for little money.

              pure monster tune madness, ruff tuff hardcore at its very best, 100% solid tune. and 100% marks for its creation.....Worth every penny if your a true collector. I'd still pay £200 for this if i didnt own it. YO, AY RUDE BOY, COME MY SELECTA, WATCH ME, GO.

                Nothing special about this at all. There are tons of good hardcore track from late 92 to 93 which you can buy for £5 which are about the same. Don't waste your money

                  This Track is by guy from Bolton hence BW (Bolton Wanders) called Lee, i forget his surname. He basically took a sample CD to a studio and let an engineer do his stuff and pressed about 1000 white labels.

                  Now for some reason its worth a load of money and my free copy went walkies years ago.

                    My copy is a white label with X-plode written on it in biro and no other markings. Absolutely killer EP, bought one Saturday morning in 93 from Massive Records in Oxford (RIP).
