Arguably the greatest jungle track of all time.

I've been working on this set on and off for over 3 years. I was constantly challenged with the tune selection. I made a 45 min mix in 2018 and loved it, kept it to myself, and then when I went to remix it I totally changed it. Anyway.. this is my '92 Happy breakbeat Mix. I actually played a lot of these tunes back in the day but I've definitely added to my 92 collection over the years. These are some of the best 92 piano tunes that I own, but there are sooooo many more OMG! That said, I'm trying to add tunes that you may not have heard me play before too to keep it interesting. This is Part 2 of a new series I'm creating to showcase some of the best of my collection in each of my early years. I started DJing in 92, but started raving in '88. Part one is 91-92 that I havent finished yet, but coming soon. Also, look out for my 92 darkside Halloween set coming in the next few months too. Thanks for listening. Njoy!

After replacing 3 songs and slightly extending the mix, I've now enabled downloads. The replacement tunes are:

1. Scar Wars (Big ups to Ruff Tactics) AKA Tactical Aspect
2. The Power Within Liquid Crystal - BIZZ 3
And I removed:
1. G-Force (Energy Flow)- Prodigy
2. Kleptomania  - Morf (Plastascene Mix)
3. Drop It - A Homeboy A Hippie & A Funki Dredd

Yes, that's me in 92ish. Those were GOOD DAYS!
