Was a big fan of this label and big giant and picked this up on Discogs for cheap years ago without even hearing it first.
Really glad it’s been repressed because the prices are just stupid.
Best tune is the believer which is essentially a mashup of... See full review

Amazing breakbeat piano monster. No idea why this isn’t selling for more money when you see the stupid prices getting paid for UK based piano stuff.
Buy this on sight if you like UK hardcore. Superior than half of the so called big tunes that sell for £100+ See full review

Is there any proof that these records were produced by Keith? I can’t remember them for sale in the drastik plastik shop at all. You would think there would be loads?
Any info?

One of the best early Scottish tunes and played out by the likes of carl cox.

The production quality on this is amazing for 1993. It sounds more polished than releases made by the same duo years later.

Every cloud has a silver lining.... This tune and others turned producers into making serious dark and quality music and also gave the funds to suburban base and helped create kniteforce records.

One of my favourite tunes of '92 heard it on Ratty Dance nation tape first.

Believe this is a definite tech step track. I have been into jungle since before it even existed and bought this on first listen in a shop back in the day. Torque is regarded as one of the top ten drum and bass lps of all time. Ed rush trace and... See full review

Excellent first release on the fairly commercial label. Menthol and intelligent techno are both excellent tracks. I wish Scottish techno stayed like this rather than follow the bouncy kick drum route, this is quality stuff.
Eon - Spice

The J. Saul Kane version sounds very much like tech-step drum and bass except this is 1990 not 1995!
I think this beat was used on most tracks of that era, very much ahead of its time before producers tried different non formulaic things.
No surprise... See full review

Dark affair should have been played out more, doesn't really sound like Ibiza at all.
If you could combine Doc Scott and Bizzy B production it would probably sound something like this.

Sheet metal is one of those tunes you hear and think it's run of the mill, like the other reviewer says, but suddenly you get this crazy riff that makes you stop in your tracks and think yeah this is a proper tune.
Nobody would even contemplate coming... See full review

De-men-Tation is the best tune on this, excellent build up and a great tune to start a set with.
After such a great start to the label it was a shame that none of the other releases were really of much note.

Really well constructed, deserves more attention.

The original an the best version of 6 million ways to die.
For me the eerie breakdown in the middle of the tune is the best thing about it and was left out of the remixes on RAM records.

Friday night style samples heavily from reggae tune Saturday night style by mikey dread.
Top ep well worth the cash, watch out for the bootlegs from vinyl vibes though!
Cool Hand Flex - With You / Future (Remix)

Both sides are great tunes but I'm not sure about the titles.
Future remix sounds more like a remix of Livin Xtasy on De Underground http://www.discogs.com/Flex-The-Program/master/317611
Great use of the bassline from House Syndicate ‎– Jam The Mace.

Pretty surprised that there's no comments about this already. Torque by ed rush and nico is quite rightly regarded as a seminal drum and bass lp but IMO this is a more dancefloor and dj friendly offering. Highlights include quest remix, cause 'n'... See full review

I think that experience is my favourite crystl tune. Not many will agree but for me it's better than crystalize and warpdrive which quite rightly get lots of attention.

You can't slate a tune for being groundbreaking?!
Dance music would never have progressed if it wasn't for epic tunes like this. To produce a tune like this in 1991 is nothing short of sensational and an act of genius.

T-Power remix is a great example of how a remix should be. I couldn't really get into the original version back in the day but I really like this version. The machine gun lyrics are slowed right down and they fit perfectly over the bassline and beats.... See full review

Not sure why there's such a demand for this tune for me it's a poor remake of Spinback & Q. Project's ‎– Riker's Island.
I really like Source Direct though.

This EP was very influencial for the hardcore/jungle era.
Soma and Electric sunrise were played by Top Buzz, most notably in the 91/92 Fantazia NYE set.
Soma was later sampled heavily in 'this is derranged' on NHS records (Doc Scott's label).

The flip side to the Busta Rhymes tune is an amazing dark number that sounds like something from the Ram Records or No-U-Turn stables.
Well worth tracking down.

It's not very often that you get an EP with six great tracks on it but this is a rare example.
