Second of the 5K celebrations, final mix of the year: a re-imagined, alternate Platinum Breakz ... inverted, if you will. Forgive the Tenet reference :)

The starting point here was Lemon D's This Is LA, a bonus track from the US PB1 release, which would have made it into the first mix had I realised in time. Choosing the rest was a piece of piss, but that 'exclusive' element provided by Unofficial Ghost et al was missing - so the selection is bolstered with a couple of unreleased dubs that emerged more recently on Infra-Red and Deep Jungle (Your Sound VIP is a no-brainer, and I'm sure Another Dimension was  destined for Headz). Add to that a few Razor's Edge joints and some classic Rufige Kru flavour - Manslaughter '96 (cheekily borrowed from Reinforced, as it first appeared on the flip of the Metropolis dubplate), and the mighty Fury from Saturnz Return - and we're good to go. Let's skirt over the fact Pressin' On came out on PB2, Hidden Agenda deserve a couple of spots this time around. The final line-up:

Goldie - Still Life (Photek Remix)
Source Direct - The Cult
Digital - Niagra
Alex Reece - B-Boy Flavour
Hidden Agenda - Pressin' On
Hidden Agenda - On The Roof
Alex Reece - Basic Principles (Wax Doctor Rollout)
Photek - The Rain (Photek Remix)
J Majik - Your Sound (Photek & Digital VIP)
Lemon D - This Is L.A.
Goldie - Fury (The Origin)
Goldie - Manslaughter (Rider Proto '96)
Dillinja - Ja Know Ya Big
Goldie - Jah (Peshay VIP Rollers Mix)
Dillinja - Another Dimension
Peshay - Represent
J Majik - Tranquil
Wax Doctor - The Step
Doc Scott - Blue Skies

Big up all those messaging, enjoying and supporting my soundcloud endeavours - whether I know you IRL or not, it's appreciated more than you know <3

Selectabwoy: Platinum Breakz Inverted

Selectabwoy's Platinum Breakz Inverted Mix [5K Followers 2/2]

First uploads of 2023, so let’s make them good ones, right?

"Back with a sound that hits you like thunder, did you miss me? I wonder."

As pioneers of the UK breakbeat/jungle scene, I doubt Smiley & PJ need any introduction. This two-part mix compiles many of my favourites from their extensive back catalogue, including the seminal LP ‘Dance Before the Police Come’ in its entirety.

Part 1 focuses slightly more on their rap roots. Part 2 leans towards the breakbeat sound that saw the rave scene adopting them back in the early 90s.

Part 1 Tracklist:

Shut Up & Dance - £20 To Get In
Shut Up & Dance - Rap's My Occupation
The Ragga Twins - Wipe The Needle
Shut Up & Dance - 5, 6, 7, 8 (Original Mix)
Shut Up & Dance - White White World
Shut Up & Dance - This Town Needs A Sheriff
Shut Up & Dance - This Town Needs A Sheriff (Remix)
Rum & Black - Fuck The Legal Stations
Rum & Black - Wicked (Remix)
Nicolette - O Si Ne Ne
Shut Up & Dance - The Green Man
Rum & Black - Tablet Man
Shut Up & Dance - Cape Fear
Shut Up & Dance - Autobiography Of A Crackhead
Shut Up & Dance - Runaways
Shut Up & Dance feat. The Ragga Twins - Java Bass
The Ragga Twins - Spliffhead
Adé - Summer Breeze
Shut Up & Dance - Dance Before The Police Come (Remix)
Shut Up & Dance - Dance Before The Police Come
Cedric Winkleburger & The Yellow Blueberries - Take It Easy (Original)
Shut Up & Dance - Rest In Peace (Rap Will Never)
Shut Up & Dance - Because Of My Vocals
Shut Up & Dance - On A Street Level

Shut Up & Dance Mixtape (Part 2)

Shut Up & Dance Retrospective Mixtape (Part 2)

It's exactly 30 years ago today that the Hughes brothers' hood classic Menace II Society hit US cinemas, and what better way to celebrate than with a retrospective mixtape. In a similar-ish vein to the recent GTA Radio Los Santos mix (https://on.soundcloud.com/tnQEMjC4ECVSZx8u9), here's the entire OST, cut up with remixes/bonus beats/acapellas and a stack of movie dialogue threaded throughout. It's possibly one of my favourite mixes I've ever done. Sending this one out to fellow MIIS binge-watcher and heavyweight champion dialogue-reciter Ell @user-994456338, Olly @wiseguisedjs, plus a big shout to Richard for taping most of the soundtrack off for me back in the day - this is where my enduring love for gangsta rap really began.

A 4-crew link-up for the ages... Semtex Sound System x Brothers Records Sound System x Brazen Records x Singularity UK packed out the Green Works venue in Bristol for an incredible night of UK underground music. Featuring 2 massive stacks of pro audio, with 14 subs total, and mesmerising lighting & visuals, Green Works got a full makeover for this event. Appropriately titled 'The Bass Effect', and its easy to see why: 5 hours of non-stop bass absolutely hooning from corner to corner. 

Talented DJs on the night included: Cheetah, Colonel Groove, Dempz, Eminence, Full:Tone, Janhu, Janaway, Seretonin, Silva Snipa & The Bass Injector. Collectively, they played a range of genres from Old Skool Garage to Hardcore to Techstep Drum & Bass. 

If you enjoyed this one, check out the other recordings from this event on our channel !
