This is the 20th chapter (bloody 20!!!) in a series of mixes called 'trust me i was there' where I'm mixing records that were big on the radio stations I listened to and played on, and the clubs/raves I went to and played at.

This mix is pt 8 from 1992 - a massively important year for uk music development in the early jungle scene - in this mix there's music from Foul Play, Ruffige Kru, Tom n Jerry, Tango, DJ SS and a few others - including the anthem that still gets played today - Bukem's mix of Atlantis. 

When I was doing this mix i remembered where i heard Darkman 'dark as it gets' first - it was Randall at Orange, Holloway road. Vibes.

Big up all the folks that message me and say they play these mixes at house parties, makes my day!!

If you wanna book me to come and play some of these records at a club night (and trust me, i effing love playing these tunes on a decent system)give charlotte at echo a shout :D

Fabio - Kiss 100 FM - 22nd November 1996


On a lazy day
In a gravity well
On the planetary plane
I can't tell what's up or down
The ground is over my head
The sky's beneath my feet
Spinning round and round
So very free
So very confused
So lost
So heavy

And it won't be too lengthy a span of time  
Until all avenues to the celestial skies are barred  
The myriad of objects, once propelled to the heavens,  
Return in chaotic descent  
And in their fiery downfall,  
They reduce us to embers on the scorched earth

A few errant fragments
Each as small as a fleck of paint
Move as fast as a speeding bullet
At a hundred times the rate
This creates more fragments
With each collision
A self-propagating disaster
This cascade
This syndrome
This chain reaction

And it won't be long
Until there's no way to the sky
The things we launch up there
Come falling down
And burn us to the ground
