DJ Faydz & Stu Allan

For the eighth Rave Kid mix I inadvertently created the love-letter to 1993 hardcore that I'd been meaning to do for almost 30 years. 

I cannot understate the influence of the Sublove Galaxy shows on me around that time, so when selecting from this era it's hard not to make a mix that sounds like a rehash of Jody Wisternoff's selections, but the digging has been deep and think I've got the balance right, for my own personal tastes at least (what else do I have?). It all deserves a few words, so some honourable mentions among the selection follow - frankly I could talk about them all at much greater length but I have got other things to do y'know ;)

4 Hero's 'Journey From The Light' had to come first. It's hard to express the impact this one had on me - an absolute masterpiece of imagination, sampling creativity and engineering ability. All four tracks on the EP are beyond superb, each utterly unique, and I've called them all my favourite at various points over the years, but really it has to be this one. Having heard JFTL twice on the radio in early Jan '93, it felt like an eternity waiting for the official release, pestering the Replay staff every Saturday to no avail (although picking up Enforcers 2 in the interim went quite some way to alleviate the agony). To paraphrase the words of many others, Journey From The Light will *always* sound like the future. 

Basement Records, dominating the jungle techno sound in these golden years, come next - it was hard to pick a couple of tunes not present on the Sublove tapes, but here they are. Sending 'Breaks The Unbreakable' out to Ciaran, I still have that tape you made mate, 'apologies for poor sound quality as all my records are fucked because I scratch with them' :) Tek-9's Rude Bwoy Remix... been wanting to drop those incredible opening pads in a mix for so long - a sorely overlooked, foul-mouthed gem from Dego; always conjures memories of picking up the 'Return of Tek-9' EPs in HMV for 49p each on a trip to Bath with my Mum. 'Sheet Metal' is one of those I've not heard in many sets, an unabashedly ravey darkside gem. Bay B Kane's 'Nowhere' - absurdly ahead of its time, interestingly the only amen-led track here. 'We don't need a crowd to have a party'.. *sigh*... Megadrive's classic Mega 2 and Rhythm For Reasons on Formation, a pair of absolute killers with one foot in the rave era, eternally looking to the future. Being quite the Nebula II superfan I can't not mention the X-Plore H-Core Remix, a particularly deranged darkcore workout even by their standards - absolutely brutal rave stabs, Dirty Harry sample and that LFO breakdown. God-damn!

Closing out with the hugely-underrated Untouchables 'It's Alright' (a relatively new one on me) and then Metal Heads' beautifully poignant 'Kemistry' as the only possible bookend to equal the 4 Hero intro. No words left for that one and I don't think you need them.

Enjoy the mix <3
