Rave Rewind - is a high-octane journey back to the golden age of '90s rave culture. Channeling the gritty, adrenaline-fueled energy of the era, this album is a sonic homage to the old skool rave sounds that defined a generation. Inspired by the raw power of The Prodigy and the underground rave scene, Rave Rewind blends relentless basslines, pulsating rhythms, and rebellious spirit into every track. It’s a celebration of neon lights, warehouse parties, and the unapologetic freedom of the dancefloor. For those who lived it, and those who are just discovering it, this album is a timeless blast from the past, reigniting the fire of the rave movement.

For years I have tried to remake the original, but the rave organ riff that comes in at 1 min still eludes me. So I remade the 93 Ray Keith Mix instead - Simply Rolling!
Here is a new link as it has reached its 100 DL limit. EDIT 2021 found the original file and remastered it as I wasn't happy with how quiet it was.

Back in 1992 I moved to Bournemouth to go to Art College. I knew a few people, one of those being John Issacs AKA DJ Junk. I use to go over his house in the evenings and listen to music and hang out with the rest of the Second To None Breakers, most I had known since 1987/1988. One evening John took me over to a house in Bournemouth where there was a studio. I always remembered that evening but had no idea who the guy I had met was, it was just one of those random nights and I was always meeting new people. I knew this person was a rated producer signed to a big label. It wasn’t until I was signed to Moving Shadow myself and was chatting to Rob Playford around 1996 that he told me about a chap called Rog from a group called Tone Def, based in Bournemouth, who he use to work with on tunes back in the early years of the label. Thats when it clicked who that guy I met all those years earlier actually was! Rog Mogale from the group Tone Def, who made one of my all time anthems from my teens when I was out raving every weekend as a pony-tailed punter. That tune is ‘Big Love’ and it still makes the hairs on my arms stand on end (which it is as I write this, listening to it as I type!) Takes me right back to 1992 standing in a field, swaying, throwing shapes whilst my mud covered feet are going ten to the dozen!!!

It was only earlier this year that I managed to track down Rog again and after a bit of a chat (he remembers me going round his house, even though at the time I was just some random tagging along with John!) Rog mentioned that he thought that he had some old DAT tapes and 1/4″ reel to reel tapes with some music on that they wrote while on Moving Shadow but they never submitted to the label and subsequently it had been filed away, never to be heard of again. He didnt know where they were or even what the tracks on those tapes were like, but there was a small glimmer of hope that something could come to fruition! The lost Shadow Tapes!

A few long weeks went by and the occasional email from Bournemouth over to Gran Canaria (Rog’s present location) and back again before I got the email that I was hoping for. The DAT tapes had been found and Rog had gone through them and about 8 unreleased tracks were discovered! Not only that but Rog had remembered about some other tunes they had done which he had files for and would soon be collecting the Akai disks on his next trip back to Bournemouth! So, this is just the start of a few releases by Tone Def on Vinyl Fanatiks. The Bournemouth Moving Shadow family dropping megabombs!

Since their last release together as Tone Def on Moving Shadow back in 1992 Rog went on to set up the hugely successful audio company Void Acoustics, who supply the best speakers on the market to clubs, festivals and live venues. He now lives in Gran Canaria and is still producing in his rather incredible studio and enjoying the benefits of running a successful business. But he also still does the occasional gig as Tone Def alongside Paul Smith (weirdly enough whose brother I use to work with when I was a Countryside Ranger in Dorset!) though the location of the third member, Tony Davies, is presently not known, though the guys have tried to track him down over the years and would love to hear from him.

Tone Def 'Can You Feel It' - Vinyl Fanatiks 007 - 192mp3 clip

Here's the last thing I'm gonna knock up for 92 Remix Project. I remember the first time I heard this out raving near Xmas time totally loved it. Should be cheesy but it's not.

My version ain't a patch on the original and my sample quality is well rubbish cos I can'f find the original Cutty Ranks acappella. So if anyone has that or this version of the Xproject track in decent quality let me know and I'll improve stuff! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imvqhCT9ggc

Jungle bells, jungle bells, jungle all the way....................

X-Project - Walking In The Air (Simon Harris 2012 Remix) - FREE 320

Remix of a fave tune of mine from 93, strayed quite far away from the original for me for a change. Slight different flavour to my normal remixes.

Have always sworn blind that the sample in this says "Idi Amin gonna mash up your bass bins" anyone saying differently is just wrong!!!

Sonz of a Loop da Loop Era - Bust that Groove (Simon Harris 2013 Remix) - FREE 320

Hi I'm Simon Harris, no not that one, but the one that's "famous" for a really badly produced old skool record released in 1992 on Bhive Records - Logical Beats EP, http://www.discogs.com/Simon-Harris-Logical-Beats/release/314179  have had another piece of vinyl released on Paranoid Recordings in January 2011 (go buy it!)

Only just got back into producing the old skool rave sound in the last couple of years think I must be having a mid life crisis,I have all the signs, a car thats way too fast, a rapidly expanding waistline, wonderful kids that live with the ex, drink and smoke far too much for someone of my age and now really love listening to the same type of music I used to listen to as a teenager..........

Just to confirm I am not Simon Harris as in Bass How Low Can you Go. Simon Harris is the name that I was born with and my record label in 1992 made me use it so as to confuse people and get some more copies sold. It still confuses people to this day!
