I'd put Dynamix II - Just Give The DJ A Break in that list too, and probably at the top of it at that.

Adding an extra comment in hopes that someone knows the 'your radio' sample used in Fresh Mess? Info would be very welcome!
And I'll say again that I love the rhythm and flow of the scratching on this, such an awesome track that never gets old for... See full review |

It's only in the last ten years or so, after only knowing the much more well known remix, that I ended up finding a copy of this. I can't speak to how well it was received upon original release but I'll just say that the Kevorkian remix is the one...

Check It Out is a great mid-uptempo electro rap track. Quite stripped back and not typical of the LA sound of the time. It's Sad is ok and Midnight Scratch would have been better without that disco beat but I guess it's cool for those who are fine...

It has to be acknowledged that Nitro Deluxe attained legendary status from his next release, Let's Get Brutal, but this first release of his is not to be overlooked, though its appeal would be much more towards the Electro heads than Techno/House...

I get it, compared to Electric Kingdom & Siberian Nights, Dark Side switches the formula up in a way that if you wanted more of the aforementioned, you might be disappointed with this. Even held on its own it's not up there with those classic records...

Both tracks are heavy hitting, and at this point in time, are secret weapons. Self-Induced Trance is the one I play(ed) the most but both work and are only for the headstrong! My timeline puts this release at the very end of '92 into '93.

Found a sealed copy of this years ago at a record fair and bought it as a punt. One of the better (and few) times that has worked out. It has a bit of a Sugarhill sound to the production.
I have a feeling it may have sounded a bit dated at the time... See full review |

Without knowing which tracks it's difficult to know for sure what is going on, but if your stuff was released on a label, then it may be that the label owner is licensing it, which would be above board on Vinyl Fanatiks' end and then a matter to...

Apart from being a solid hip hop album this is the original source for the intro break for Double D & Steinski's seminal Lesson 2 and then circa 15 years later the massive jungle breakbeat popularized by LTJ Bukem on Horizons in 1995. Though it is...

>even if master tapes have been available...it seems that record master tapes, are the only thing in the world which get better over the years.
It's not that they get better but they will have the separate tracks available to work on independently... See full review |

This is/was a popular track to sample, here is a list:

Work the Box is a work of pure genius. Try and figure out why it works, you can't!
|

Urban Music features serious bass and serious jungle bizznizz. Only for those that know.
|
|
My own personal guess is that after this one they thought to release full compilation LPs of this sort of stuff and made the StreetSounds series as a result?

There are not many records from this era that I truly regret missing or passing up, and not because they became in demand high dollar records either, but this is definitely one of them. This leads onto the second regret of not searching this out...

Cosmic Blast is one of the greatest tracks of this period and one of my personal favorites of all time. As noted by other reviewers, I also was introduced to this via Electro 6 in a slightly remixed form, which became my default choice to play once I...

puttybutty1 : "This is the track that people who really aren't at all ravey say is their favorite tune. Whenever someone says they like this or mention it I switch off."
I look it another way: it's the track that people who were nicking flyers out... See full review |

It's been a long time since this was released now and it seems that this was possibly the most looked forward to release that ended up disappointing as much when it finally did drop.
Personally, my view is that Crucial 4 was a flawed concept from the... See full review |

It's definitely not from there. The Let It Go break is in that track, but it isn't clean to use.

Dread_junglist Are you trying to suggest that Jungle was not part of the rave scene?
|
|
Yeah, I found out afterwards.. Never got around to editing it. Appreciate the correction.

Retrac & Chromaboy

JackDJMystery Looks like it is fixed now, but I got my copy in Zoom Records, Camden around April '92 time too, and that was a little bit before it blew up. Amazing record, I wasn't totally convinced when I first heard it in the shop, the staff member was...

HaydenLewis: Which begs the question; was this before or after he was cut out of the deal?

Not in AWOL they didn't! |

I was also a judge for this competition, I agree that Wildthing's track was too good not to win, really well put together and as EE at the time definitely skewed more to the old school, was a sure fire winner. However, my personal pick; Metric...

Going to add to the building chorus in regards to Resister. It's heartwarming to see it getting some love. Music Box was everywhere and rightly so, but Resister was just as good in its own way; deep and expressive unlike so many other records at the...

Essential record, Time of Our Lives is the main track but don't sleep on Drive Ya' Crazy.

Bukem did strings and sampled the rest. I can't vouch for his 2000 and onwards stuff as I didn't follow it. I never said Bukem wasn't good but in the context of the time, this was beyond Bukem.

/takes a look at discog sales for repress ...... That's a funny one for those who missed out on it.

I first heard this on Mike Allen's show in 1985 and fell in love with Commando Rock immediately. Great vocoder, synths, cool rap, funky scratching and even the Hendrix inspired guitar solo crushed it. Post apocalyptic sci-fi hip hop electro punk rock... See full review |

LOL, Madness rocked the house, choppy production and all :) It's an essential record. I get that the prices are so mad, I'm glad I got mine new at the time. Hopefully these will all get pristine digital releases so the collectors can have it their way...

This got played in AWOL a few times that I can remember, can confirm, meltingly good.

B1 & B2 were/are my go-to tracks on this EP. You can hear that Gavin took the B1 template for some of his later Cloud 9/Nookie stuff too.

The Resister is one of the cases of a fantastic B Side being relatively overlooked because the A was so massive - though I just saw that Resister is the A of an AA release lol. I'm sure it got play, it has Randall all over it, though I can't recall...
