Mix twelve sees the series continue where eleven left off – enjoying a little more time in the warehouses and service-stations of the Techno/Breakbeat/Hardcore scene of the early 90’s.

Things kick off with those Electro B-Boys, World Class Wreckin’ Cru and their track We Call Him Yella played at 45 rather than 33 to introduce the Son’z Of A Loop Da Loop Era classic, Far Out – another one of those little tricks from back in the day!

After a little classic meeeoww action provided by the Prodigy, the first use of the title ‘On A Ragga Tip’ hits the mix and is provided by the E-Lustrious boys. SL2 also get their first outing with Way In My Brain and then the sound of DJ’s U-Nite’ing can be heard with their classic stab anthem of the same name.

Next it’s clean up time as we hit the ‘hoover’ section. Classics such as Dominator, Rave Alarm and God Of Abraham guarantees things are all nice and tidy before we return to our friends Slipmatt and Lime with their second track in the mix, DJ’s Take Control.

We continue to take control as the BPM creeps up and undisputed back-to-back heavyweights are dropped in the mix in the form of Sweet Harmony by Liquid, Don’t Go by The Awesome 3 and It’s Just A Feeling by Terrorize. The roots of D&B can be found in Jonny L’s classic ‘Hurt You So’ before the BPM continues its journey north as we visit SL2 for a third time and their take on the aforementioned song title ‘On A Ragga Tip’. 

We then drop in on the likes of Elevation with their hands-in-the-air classic Can You Feel It, Tango with their heart-attack inducing Can’t Stop The Rush and the ground-breaking Dub War by Dance Conspiracy.

After a quick trip to outer space, things are wrapped-up by two of the era’s massive end-of-night vocal anthems - and just so we don’t finish on a predictable note, proceedings are concluded with the giants that are 808 State and their landmark track Cubik. 

...Whose got the Vicks?
