Track from 1998 by Woodbreaker vs. DJ Rock Steady. This was our biggest hit with airplay on P3 Demo and P3 Dans. I can't help but still like this. Holds up pretty alright, no? I have no idea. We were all about finding sounds from records, movies, tv-shows and sampling them through really crappy computer circuits. I mean, look at that weird wavelength. What is that? (lofi). You better have some speakers connected to your computer if you wanna hear this.

If You Meet Me (Hear My Song)

Track from ca 1995 by Rock. I remember when Rock made this. I think it was his first song ever actually. He called himself Rastaman back then and his tape "Greatest Hits" was the first release ever on Frequent Flyer. Anyway, I loved this track right away. It was so precise and minimal. Rock was known to make six or seven tracks in one afternoon at one point but he never really returned to the simplicity of Drum 57.

Drum 57 (short version)

Track by Woodbreaker vs. DJ Rock Steady from ca 1998. Quite a long one, eh? It's also an unusual consistent song with things going crazy only in the last minute or so. The woman talking about d&b is sampled from P3 Soul, can't remember the artist. We took the name from a local girl rock band. I think someone in our gang knew someone in that group. Didn't get to meet any of the girls in the band so in that respect this song is a failure.

Ear Drum Dust

Track from ca 1998 by Woodbreaker vs. DJ Rock Steady. Ah yes, another one of our 'classic' tracks. Maybe a word or two about our equipment. I had a Mac Performa and Rock had a Mac Power PC (?). Tracks were assembeled in PlayerPro, a music editor we bought by sending dollars in an envelope to a guy in Switzerland. Got a code back in the mail, started making tracks. 

Samples used: Oh, so many I can't remember but any way… Hitchcock movie (Psycho?), Curtis Mayfield, Ray Charles interview on P3 Soul, RZA interview, my old Trance Europe Express Ambient Collection, Beck talking, Eastwoods movie Bird (right?)… I remember when we played this track "live" in a kind of a church in Lidköping. All that cursing at the end - lord have mercy, we got uncomfortable.
