Reviews
Overplayed to the point of nausea. But still utterly brilliant. The clever build-up, the hip hop samples, the cheerful bouncy basslines, the switches throughout the songs, and the fact that both A and B-side are equally good. Zinc was on fire! Overshadowed by the unbelievably iconic Remixes 12", I still prefer the less muscular originals.
Don't really have anything else to say other than it's kind of sad Zinc got remembered for his shittiest song. Super Sharp Shooter is awful and that's a hill I'm more than willing to die on.
Edited one year agoAgreed, Garylanders; remixes Volume 4 came along & smashed both original versions to pieces!!
BUT, these were very very large (in fact seminal) records & still hold weight today as they cleared the path for the onslaught. I can't be having these 1st takes abandoned, so I mix the old with the new & double drop. Yeah, so damn fresh!!
Both versions of 'SSS' are classic & then some.
One ofthe biggest tunes in Jungle! over played but it was hudge.- 'Super Sharp Shooter' was big. At the time, it seem to be played at least once at every party where there was jungle/dnb. So much that I got tired of hearing it. I'll never forget the sound of those gunshots.
Edited 14 years agosurprised no one's written about this yet
absolutely enormous tune responsible for converting many hip hop heads to jungle
caned by DJs of all kinds
