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.

Shut Up & Dance Retrospective Mixtape (Part 1)

Part 2 in my "Back To The Future" mix series. Where each mix I'll be delving in to various upfront genres that I've always played on my Music Mondays shows. Lot's of fresh vibes with an authentic flavor.

For this mix I'm concentrating on Electro, Bleeps & Bass, Acid House and Detroit vibes. 

I hope you feel the nostalgia in a futuristic state of mind! 

We are going "Back To The Future"!

DJextreme - 1994 Jungle / Drum & Bass [Jungletrain Mix EXT063]

A philosophical journey through the cycle of life and transformation.
The womb and the grave speak the same language. We are notes played once in an infinite symphony, questions without guaranteed answers, lightning in an eternal storm.
Built on massive wobble bass, chopped Amen breaks at 174 BPM, and raw street energy, this track fuses jungle, drum & bass, and ragga flow to explore our brief but brilliant existence.
Between the void and the light, we find our truth. To exist, even briefly, is to touch eternity.
Produced by Rooky Flange Sound System
Jungle / Drum & Bass / Breakbeat

DJ Hype - 'The Future is Ours' (1990)

* Message me if you have any copyright issues *

Home of my own mixes - predominantly jungle/hardcore with the odd bit of D&B, plus eclectic sample-digging, breaks and hip-hop, techno & electronica. 

Pre-2001, all mixes vinyl; Post-2016, all mixes digital (DJay 2); Post-2018, Ableton Live. Why? Why not?
I've got an old skool DJ's mentality, early influences ranging from Sublove, Ratty, Randall & Hype to Coldcut, DJ Juice, MK & Primo.  In the early 00s I turned my back on D&B, retired my turntables in favour of family/work commitments, and got into funk, soul, reggae and so on... a lot of this driven by curiosity around the sample roots of hardcore and jungle.  Forward another decade and an early mid-life crisis saw me messing around with virtual decks on my phone, and later acquiring a vinyl ripper, with one vision in mind: making mixes.
Although I'm partial to the odd DJay or vinyl mix when I get the chance, the progression into Ableton Live was a simple means to an end.  My ideas stretch further than the limitations of my physical collection and real-time mixing, and by sequencing I can pick, choose, chip away and structure mixes at my leisure. Which I do... a lot :)

Wait, there's more ... an absolute stack of classic golden era/old skool hip-hop/turntablism, jungle and d&b, hardcore, techno and house mixes retrieved from my dusty tape & CD archives.  This includes (by my reckoning) the most exhaustive collections of classic Full Cycle and Sublove Galaxy Radio shows, live Ruffneck Ting jungle tapes, loads of studio & compilation mixes, all manner of rave tapes, and so on. 

Have fun, spread the love :)
