djkryptonn Posted October 25, 2023 Report Share Posted October 25, 2023 Drum & Bass tapes recorded at Vibealite & Pleasuredome 'United States Of Hardcore' on 5th October 1996 at Fantasy Island. I'm not sure if there was a Drum & Bass tape pack released, but there are bootleg single tapes from the event. If anyone has any info on a tape pack or other single tapes, please let me know. Tapes: Mickey Finn & Darren Jay Andy C & Swan E Note: There's a happy hardcore pack from the night, tracklisted here - https://www.rolldabeats.com/forum/index.php?/topic/63700-united-states-of-hardcore-happy-hardcore-8-pack-05101996/ There's mention of a techno pack from the night here - https://www.rolldabeats.com/forum/index.php?/topic/70180-vibealite-events/ I can't find mention anywhere of a Drum & Bass pack though.

hardsteppa Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 I think this might be from the same night. I've never heard the rest of the Andy C set or any of Swan'e but the selection from Andy fits that date and they all appear on the flyer for the 5th October Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djkryptonn Posted October 29, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Good find. I'd say it's got to be from the same event. Like you say, the tracklist fits the date and both DJ's were playing in arena 2 that night. I've just come across a Billy Bunter / Brisk tape with the same style inlay on ebay as well. Both of them were also playing in arena 2 that night, so it looks like there's a few of these bootleg tapes out there. Here's the tracklist for the 15 minutes or so that we have audio for: Andy C A1) Dillinja – Mackin / Case feat Foxxy Brown – Touch Me Tease Me (Dillinja Rmx) [Unreleased] A2) Shimon & Andy C – Night Flight [Ram] A3) The X – New Dawn (ST Files Rmx) [Jump Up] A4) Future Forces Inc – Dead By Dawn [Renegade Hardware] A5) Concept 2 – Cause N Effect [Ram – The Speed Of Sound LP] >> Gang Related & Mask – Concentration [Dope Dragon] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
