WHAT THE FUTURE SOUNDED LIKE
Interesting documentary about the birth of electronic music in Britain. Well worth a watch.
N R G Posse
A release on the classic D-Zone label. Can't remember what the A-side is called.... eveyone ignores it anyway and goes straight for the tune on the flip.
And what a weird tune it is!
A bleepy melody over BIG breakbeats with huge bass rumbles underneath. Tuneful, but nothing special going on.... and then a little squeaky voice comes in from nowhere 'Dirty Asshole! Fucking Jerk! Eat shit! Fuck You!'.
No reasons. No explanations.
The Final Word
Buy this potty-mouthed tune here :http://www.discogs.com/release/131411
UPDATE: Apparently 'The Final Word' was a little battery powered key-ring type of thing. You pressed a little button and it would whisper sweet expletives in your ear. So thats how the tune got its name, and where the samples came from.
Elementary my dear Watson, elementary.
TURNTABLE TERROR
A wicked little dutch number I picked up recently for a mere £3 and a right bargain it was! This is packed full of individuality, I love it. Out on the mighty Mid-Town records, this is THE label for classic early 90s dutch hardcore.
To quote one of the comments on discogs, 'Is it Hardcore, is it Rave, is it Breakbeat, who cares, this tunes makes you move as a dog covered with flees!'
It certainly does.
From the faux-metal guitar at the start, to the screaming diva vocals, to the catchy '2-3-BREAK!' sample this tune makes me jittery like a caffeine-addled kangaroo.

I get the feeling this one might start getting played out a fair bit (depending on what circles you mix in I guess) so snap it up while its still cheap.

Hip House Documentary
A nice informative 10 min doc about the rise of Hip-House.
Its really good to see Fast Eddie doing his thing... watching this really surprised me how young he was at the time! He had already released Acid Thunder by this point....
I guess if you've got talent it will shine through no matter how old you are.
(I'm still waiting for mine to start - its at a dull glow at the moment)
ENTER THE HARDCORE
WRAP YOUR EAR-HOLES ROUND THIS!!!

What do you do when your construction/demolition droid goes beserk and starts smashing up the place!?!??
You stick this mix on and hope for the best!
