REPCAST 003 | GARAGE VYBEZ

Architechs - The Boy Is Mine (1998)

THIS IS NOT TO BE MISSED.  
A deep ‘n heavy blend from a true purveyor. We welcome DJ Sykik { pronounced psychic } to the collaborative with this very late hour inspired set from his vaults. You’re in for a real treat. 

About the guest: 

Being in the scene from an early age Sykik picked up a set of headphones in 1997 .  Next to him,  friend @shade377 was his main dj connection and watching how he blended and chopped up 2 tracks was mesmerising.. 
It was the beginning of something grand.

Being a massive junglist from the early 90s, raving and living the jungle scene from near the start it was his passion to pursue djing , which landed him at local pirate radio station CHARGE 90.8FM  in late 97, which is where he delved deeper into underground House and garage after 1st hearing a suncity tape of karl tuff enuff brown in 1995.
Early 98  he found himself with a residency at a local night club called MONROS.

“Putting on a regular garage night through there I met a notorious local wheeler dealer by name of Micky Colby who used to put on an illegal barn rave once a month. I managed to get sets regularly and bumped in to quite a few djs and record label owners ,the likes of dj footloose hermit Jimmy from public demand . From there I started sending out tapes to club promoter's to get on line ups and got on a few iconic nights such as cream of da crop , hanky panky, love injection as well as regular pirate radio shows on various london pirates such as flava  fm , rinse fm ,de ja vu , y2k to name a few. 
As garage music got darker and grime evolved It was a natural transition for me with my jungle roots and loving the dark big basslines I was heavily involved in the birth of the UK grime scene djing for the likes of dizzee rascal , nasty crew and roll deep and being involved in grime nights such as beats 2 battle .. ultimately the DJING scene changed with digital equipment cdjs becoming the goto.”


It was only in 2018 that Sykik decided to bring his  technics and vinyl to his new home and life, thusly started up the Instagram page posting his collection, not aware there was a small handful of pages also posting vinyl. 

The turning point was starting a record label with a friend he met on Instagram named Rossy Cee .. They launched the original  PIRATE CUTZ and DANGER DUBS labels which were later sold. They’re credited with pioneering lathe cut, dubplate record label culture, offering  releases featuring music from different producers where the music was the focus , not who was behind it.  The small batch, limited pressings sold out within hours of the releases, and the rest is history. 

 “ I have since focused my time working with @damnrightproductions who are an original house and garage label launched  in 1997 who have recently come back in to the studio. We have been working on new music and cleaning up some original music made back in the 90s. The idea is to release these tunes and give the scene the original drp sound with a twist.  

This mix is a blend of real house and garage sounds for the serious connoisseur... ft some very special tracks that are currently unreleased and unheard.. some forthcoming material some classic mid 90s house and some brand new recently released house and garage . “

You’ll notice something is missing.
That’s right! There’s no track listing on this one. It’s by design.  Enjoy the music and get digging!

We thank Sykik for this contribution and for sharing an important story that needed telling.

It landed on the A-list playlist at Radio 1, 1Xtra, Kiss and Capital FM and also topped the Music Week ‘Cool Cuts’ and ‘Club’ charts. 

“Nobody To Love” has gone gold in the UK after racking up sales of more than 400,000 and is at 18 million views and counting on YouTube. It’s been streamed more than 30 million times and was the second most Shazam-ed record in the UK.

And now the rest of the world is falling under Sigma’s spell...”Nobody To Love” climbed to the top of the national chart in New Zealand, to Number 2 in Belgium and Number 3 in Ireland. The single is dominating iTunes charts globally – it’s reached number 1 in the UK, New Zealand, Estonia, Ukraine and Hungary, number 2 in Belgium and the Czech Republic, number 3 in Canada, number 6 in Poland, number 8 in Australia, number 11 in the Netherlands and is poised to break the top 10 in Germany.
