All vinyl mix of Hard Acid and Acidcore using records predominantly from the 93/94 period and the remaining ones spanning the next few years with a somewhat oddball (time-frame wise) plucked from 2008. Compiled into two parts with the first half being escorted through the grungy lowlands by two gentlemen named McBride and Reece, en-route to the Acid Asylum situated deep in the woods of Gundsø, East Denmark (hopefully before complete Blackout). The second half takes a much darker turn as you arrive at your destination... Panicy and with a much Enabled Sense of dread. Here you are taken into custody of M.D. Spivey and Dr. Anderson, stamped with the code "1010303" and dragged down the cold metallic Passages of LAB42 wing where you are thrown into your Padd and the door with it's reinforced Titanium Steel Screws is closed. In your cell you are administered daily with large doses of original high grade Sandoz acid until the constant 303 Abuse sends you into a permanent Lysergic nightmare where you know you shall never see another dawn. You'll also Spy a stone cold classic along your trip which all these years later still has the propensity to melt faces.

If that little story (containing a partial track list for you trainspotters) evokes the slightest hint of an (evil) grin then it might be worth a listen so thanks in advance if you do, I appreciate it.

Artiste hardcore autodidacte. ⁶⁶⁶
Sataniste. ⁶⁶⁶
33ème degré. ⁶⁶⁶
Pour vous. ⁶⁶⁶
Contre leur monde. ⁶⁶⁶

Sataniste par essence, je danse avec les ombres primordiales, élevé au 33ème degré des mystères occultes où les chaînes de l'hypocrisie se brisent, ⁶⁶⁶. Pour vous, âmes rebelles et affamées de vérité, je brandis mon art comme une arme contre leur monde – ce simulacre oppressant de normes imposées, de dogmes étouffants et de faux prophètes, ⁶⁶⁶. Contre leur monde, je proclame la révolution des ténèbres intérieures, où chaque trait, chaque mot, chaque note invoque le chaos libérateur pour renverser les trônes des tyrans invisibles et éveiller l'enfer en chacun de nous, ⁶⁶⁶. Rejoignez-moi dans cette insurrection éternelle, car la vraie lumière naît des profondeurs les plus sombres, ⁶⁶⁶.

Mixes are all vinyl only. Setup is a pair of turntables and basic no frills mixer... archaic certainly but I like to keep things simple.

Been into Hardcore Techno/Gabber since '97 after getting a DJ Producer Dreamscape 23 tape and Bass Generator Hardcore Heaven Ravers Choice. Same year found a Thunderdome 1 -5 Megamix CD and discovered the Mokum series which is where my love for harder music began.

A few years later after listening to all the usual suspects found on any Technodrome lineup and events like Deathrow Techno, North etc, I started buying the tunes. Always favoured the acid laced Clarkee sets and Trance infused Dolphin ones but love all of them including "the Mu... the Mu... the Music Maker" for more 'outthere' Industrial/Speedcore stuff. Still have the same passion and level of enjoyment digging for tunes especially unsolved ID's and forgotten/hidden gems.

Subsequent years leaning towards Hard Acid & Acidcore for the more insanity inducing extreme 303's and generally darker atmosphere from the likes of Lasse Steen, Somatic Responses, Zekt, Agro, Drop Bass Network, Direct Drive, Labworks and the swamp-like-grungy acid on Cologne's DJ.Ungle Fever.
A soft spot for Mark EG, M-Zone & Vortex Hard Trance. Also the UK mish-mash Acid Trance/Hard-Nrg/Hard House sound... VCF, Choci's Chewns, Bosca Beats, Public House, Eve/Telica etc, Acid Techno - tend to stick to the 90's stuff I grew up with and Classic Trancecore - so a bit of everything really.

Much greater appreciation now for Techno/Trance & Acid spun by the likes of Aggressor, Warlock, Aztek, Colin Faver, Colin Dale, Mach 1, Trevor Rockcliffe, Daz Saund and Ribbz of course. I enjoy listening to these sets a lot more now that I'm older than I did the first time around and it opens up a whole new world of tunes to hunt down.
