First of the eclectic hardcore/jungle sample-spotter mix series.
It's a selection spanning multiple genres from the 60's to the 90's, the common thread being - as ever - that each track was sampled by the hardcore/rave/jungle/DnB scenes - some have just one signature sample, others have been rinsed. Some of these records are incredibly obscure, dug up with help from the RolldaBeats and WhoSampled camps - others are long-standing personal favourites of mine.
This time I've included a few cheeky set-pieces based around reconstructions of hardcore/jungle tracks, or at least paying tribute to them, so keep an eye out for D'Cruze's Bass Go Boom, 4 Hero's darkside classics Journey From The Light and The Element; a trio of Foul Play samples, a cut-up reconstruction of Leviticus' The Burial, a 115bpm tribute to DJ Hype's Tiger Style, and plenty more besides. I can assure you that no jungle records were harmed in the making of this mix, original sources only. And they are so good. As ever - hope you enjoy.

Selectabwoy: Eclectic Mix Part IV

Eclectic Samples Mix Part IV - 07/05/2017

To accompany the penultimate Eclectic Sample selection (#6)...
https://soundcloud.com/selectabwoy/eclectic-samples-mix-part-vi-08042018 
...here’s a little teaser/bonus mix - a trip through my hardcore/jungle record collection circa late ’93-’95. Nothing too obscure, just a bunch of tunes I loved then and now. 

Those of you who know me know that I like a challenge, so the sequence of tunes in this particular mix roughly mirrors the original samples featured in Eclectic Mix 6. Not going to bang on about it but this was a fairly massive ball-ache to structure across both mixes, and almost completely unnecessary as the tunes are pretty well-known, but just thought I’d try it for fun. Not sure if I can be bothered to repeat this ordeal for the final mix, but if you’re feeling it let me know and I may reconsider...
