DJ SS & MC's Warren G, Phantom & The Ragga Twins - Warning 14-12-02 Urban Jungle

Something a bit different from me! A label that I've been meaning to do a deep dive on for some time, finally got the chance to sort my records and CDs and start a 2 part look at the awesome, forward thinking and downright jazzy New Identity Records! A Formation label started in 1996 by DJ SS, the label is still going today with a look at the deeper, jazzier, off the wall style of D&B. 

Here's a look at the jazzier 96/97 stuff. Will do a part 2 looking at more 97-2002 and the darker, techier sounds at some point...

01. Matrix - The Chase
02. Matrix - Slow Drift
03. Matrix - The Junk
04. Matrix - The Message
05. Matrix - Fluid Motion
06. Tango & Ratty - Time And Space
07. Allude 8 - Deep Minds
07. Mental Power - I Want
08. Allude 8 - Trumpets
09. The New Jazz Phenomeon - Harlem Shuffle
10. Barcode - Let The Music Be (SS Revamp)
11. Tekniq - Awakening 96
12. Allude 8 - The Gallery
13. Matrix - Snake Skin
14. Bassline Generation - Black Polished Chrome
15. DJ SS - Mediterranean Falls
16. DJ SS - White (Technical Itch Remix)

Thumpa - The Sound Of New Identity Part 1 (Formation sub label)

A deep dive into the early releases on the Back 2 Basics sub label that ran from 1994 to 2000, releasing music from Ascend, Ultravibe, Technical Itch, JB and more. At first glance the label could be considered 90s record box filler but I love how the label could hop from atmospheric jungle to vocals to big wobbly basslines and amens to hip hop jump up and darkness. Enjoy!

Thumpa - The Second Movement Sessions

A mix I've been meaning to do for YEARS! 

My tribute to (I think) the 2nd rave I ever went to back in 1998, as a 16 year old white kid I was absolutely terrified being inside Starlight 2001 in Leicester with all the shady characters, guns, drugs and people getting robbed but the music was amazing. The DJs always played a bit harder and the resident MCs always went in with their lyrics too; legends like Hyper D, Trigga, Bassman and Spyda would control the crowd whilst DJs like Randall, Sappo, APB & DJ SS rolled out the beats. There was no rave like Hysteria, moody, dark and the best tunes.

Here's my 2 hour tribute to the music played at Hysteria, I have dug a bit deeper than usual and picked a selection of tunes across the 97-00 period with a few different styles repped! I hope you enjoy...HEAVY LIKE A WAH!

02. Majistrate - Step On (VIP)
