Mixing up more than just salad
I’ve been digging in the crates - or rather I’ve been rummaging around in a dusty old loft - for some of my favourite old hardcore tracks/ The result is a 25-track selection of some good oldies:
- Q Bass - Dancin People

- Nookie - The Sound Of Music
- Engineer’s Revenge - Sounds of Euro
- The Hypnotist - The House Is Mine
- The Soundcorp - Dreamfinder
- Pyschotropic - Hypnosis (SL2 mix)
- The Criminal Minds - Baptised by Dub

Weehaa - they don’t make ‘em like this anymore, which is a real shame. I’m sitting here at work (oops, shouldn’t be typing this then) with my headphones on blissfully unaware of what’s going on around me. As long as I don’t get the whistle and the Vicks inhaler out I should get away with it.
The decks have had a good work-out of late. After sitting silent for months, they’ve been given the privilege of spinning good old hardcore tracks (before hardcore became a term for the grungy punk music that skaters and BMXers are into) and some old bass tracks. By bass I meant the electro/Miami Bass style stuff. So, here’s another tracklisting to whet your appetite:
- Cybotron - Clear
- Matrix - Jam, It’s Time
- Information Society - Running
- Dynamix II - Ignition
- DJ Battlecat - DJ n Effect
- Lon Alonzo - Vicious Love
- Ozone Layer - Planetary Deterioration
- Hakatak - Think Tank
- Kraftwerk - Tour de France
- Dynamix II - Don’t Touch This Dial
- Dynamix II - Bass Generator
- The Man From Uncle - Annihilating Rhythm
- Unknown DJ - Basstronic
- Soul Sonif Force - Planet Rock
- X Men - Revenge of the X Men
- Dynamix II - Give the DJ Break (1990 mix)
- MC Sway & DJ King Tech - We Want To Rock You
- Underground Posse - Techno Theory
- MC Sway & DJ King Tech - I Want To Rock
- Rodney O & Jo Cooley - Egyptian Empire
Both of these are now on CD, with indexed tracks, so if you would like a copy, just speak to me nicely.
