DJ Rush Bandit

Did the DJ Hixxy set ever find its way onto the Internet fellas please?! A quick search yields nothing

ah, okay - thanks

Are any of these available online to listen to please?!

On the Jimmy J/Vinyl Trixta set: Just wondering if the opening tune is on the Malice Records, as it sounds very similar to the Garion Fey release (??). Also elements of Chris' remix of Alk-E-D's "Home". Maybe on this (?), there's videos on You Tube but apparently you're not allowed to listen to them (not sure what the point of that is). https://www.discogs.com/release/172623-Toxic-Avengers-The-Toxic-Avenger I'd deffo say it's a Luna-C composition, perhaps something even unreleased (???). Also, just a small correction the Move Your Body is the later remix that came out towards the end of 95. https://www.discogs.com/release/234536-Sy-Unknown-The-Remixes

A2 = The Dok - Strings Of Life '94 Shame the recording of this is so hissy & poor, only problem when you didn't always get clear reception on those pirates!

oooh wicked, are there any more sets from this event please..?!?!

These sets are fantastic, right up my street! I'm assuming the MC on the Big Byte/Barn Owl is Paranoia, it sounds a lot like MC Knight from the Tazzmania events (??)

Yes, that was the one. I think only 2 of the German DJs played - I can't remember which ones. I think Bassface Sascha may have been last on as he appears to be the "higher billing" on the flyer. I may be mistaken as obviously it was a long time ago now, but I think Brisk, Sy and Vibes all played first to allow the German DJs to be 'showcased' later (???). I know for a fact that whichever one it was either boycotted playing their set or agreed not to play (I have no idea if this cost the promoters money?!) and DJ Dream filled in, the club had had enough of the Jungle - although personally I never really cared because I loved Happy Hardcore, Jungle or Techno/Acid back then. But by this stage the crowd was thinning big time, I do remember it. I think the German DJs were disappointed by the crowd and maybe expected UK crowds to be more 'open-minded' and reciprocating of their Jungle sets, which they were known for...Doc Tom had Jungle style releases on Riot Beat, Alec Empire et al - so it was known they made Jungle with Breakcore sort of stuff, but also....maybe the promoters should have been clear they were booking them for Techno-orientated sets, bit of a cock up all round really.

Would this be considered a rare set?!?! Bassface Sascha was one of the DJs booked from Germany to play one of the nights at Club Kinetic around mid-1995. I was there that night, they played Jungle - which wasn't over with the crowd in Stoke at this point, I think everyone was expecting a Digital (it may have even been a Digital night, one of their infamous harder Techno-mannered nights..??) type Harder style Hardcore/Techno set, ala Loftgroover, HMS types.. In the end I think one of them boycotted the last set possibly Sascha himself (??), having seen the delusion with the crowd not wanting to hear German DJs play Jungle and DJ Dream (not sure if originally booked, or had played earlier a warm up set? Can't remember everything, so long ago!!) stepped up as a last minute replacement and played a typical bouncy set as the crowd were deserting the dancefloor in droves! Anyway, nostalgia blast! It's also occurred to me you must be responsible for compiling at least 70% of the Internet tracklistings for Hardcore/Jungle over many years. Unbelievable feat really, your knowledge of our Scene from early '90s to late over multiple sub-genres is quite sensational, you should have a plaque of some sort done for you! Cheers to you

Thank you, I'll head over

Any possibility of providing the other tracklistings please when opportunity arises?! Would love to see what's on the April 95 set if possible. Thanx, & a merry Christmas

Are there any links to these sets online, please?! Could have a crack at the missing IDs where possible

A2 = Discofrisco & DJ Inferno - Happy Verbs [European Rave Records] as previously ID'd on Helter Skelter Zoom pack from '95

Very welcome. I noticed it was missing whilst browsing years ago, before RollDa...first went down. Meant to join up and chip in where I could, ages ago haha

Pretty sure he was just booked. I think the likes of himself, Lomas and Brisk were becoming more 'Bouncy Hardcore' type DJs by this point, not playing a lot of the breakbeat stuff that was phasing out anyway. The Technodrome was usually reserved for your harder Scorpio, HMS, Music Maker; Producer types but occasionally they'd throw in these slightly 'lighter' bouncier DJs like Druid and Brisk

B8, last track of DJ Druid very briefly played is: Discofrisco & DJ Inferno - Happy Verbs [European Rave Records]

Hello peeps on the DJ Vibes set: A5 = Garion Fey - Lifetime Overdose [Malice Records] A8 = DJ Dominate - Just The Begining [Midway Recordings] B9 = T3 - Paradise [Knitebreed]
