Calypso summer is a tune I didn't appreciate back in the day and absolutely LOVE now

thanks for doing these sets Olly, makes working from home a joy, will you will continue this series up to 99>?

every mix so far has been spot on, couple of tunes I'd forgotten about as well and don't know the name, any chance of a track-list ?

sensational mixing, top set, some fantastic underground hardcore. Nice one Olly.

belter after belter, absolutely cracking set

cracking mix fella, thoroughly enjoyed it. 

Part 2 of my look at the awesome sound of Helter Skelter! My first ever rave was Skelter in March 97 and after that I was hooked, 23 years later I'm still heavily involved in the rave scene, thank you Skelter!

1997 was an amazing year for happy hardcore, here's over 2 hours of my absolute faves on vinyl, all played at Skelter! I've had all of these records since I was 15 and they sound as good today as they always have...enjoy.
