the best time of happy hardcore sound! Thanks for that selection @Vinyltrixta! Live it!!!!!!!

Second vinyl I ever bought. Ham if I remember right

Myself & Jimmy J co-founded the Remix Records record shop in Camden opening on the 4th of January 1994. In 1993 the music had splintered into Jungle & Happy Hardcore. Most of the record shops in London were stocking a lot more Jungle than HH, Each shop would only carry a few HH tunes each so you’d have to visit every shop to buy all the release's of that week which was fun but very time consuming. It was therefore apparent that London was crying out for a dedicated Happy Hardcore shop & thus Remix Records was born. It was pretty much an instant success.. Later that year Jimmy started the Remix Record record Label with Cru-L-T and along with its big brother Kniteforce Records they defined the sound of a generation. This mix to to commemorate those wonderful years for the people who were there & especially for those who weren’t… I would like to dedicate this mix to the late great MC RUFF R.I.P. My brother !! Col, Vinyltrixta x 
(P.S… For the eagled ear listeners I know track 3 is a Kniteforce release but I love it so there ! )

DJ A.K. - 93 - 94 Oldskool Breakbeat Hardcore Mix 22.07.23

The 'Godfather Of Hardcore' was a key figure in the development of the happy hardcore sound and one of my favourite DJ's. In my opinion SMD#1 was the first real happy hardcore record when the genre split into two around 1993, Happy Hardcore & Jungle/Drum & Bass.  Aswell as launching labels such as Awesome Records, Universal Records & Benz Records, he also produced some of the finest anthems and remixes of mid 90's. Slipmatt is a true legend of the scene and deserves his place in the hardcore hall of fame.

The live sample I've used at the beginning is taken from his set at 'Helter Skelter - The Past, Present And The Future' 14/4/95.

Later that year Jimmy started the Remix Record record Label with Cru-L-T and together with its big brother Kniteforce Records they defined the sound of a generation. At this time I was playing @ free parties & anywhere that would have me! Diehard Leicester were the first club to give me a break closely followed by my spiritual home Labrynth ... By 1997 I was playing regularly for events such as Slammin Vinyl, Unired Dance, Hardcore Heaven, Destiny, GBH, Dizstruxshon, Illusion, Dreamscape, Helter Skelter & many more.. It was long before I started to get bookings from around the world coming in including Germany, Canada, Poland, Singapore & many hazie visits to Ibiza... All of the above was all about Hardcore & Happy hardcore as the music evolved.. From 1999 I also started to play & produce Hard House as The Trixta with a weekly residency for Substance which was a room for Freedom @ Bagleys which ran for 2 years. In 2003 I decided to stop playing hardcore as the music which I truly loved had evolved into music so far from what it was when I began I felt it was time to move aside and give the opportunity to other that had a passion for it... During lockdown down I've been listening to alot of the old tunes that I love and decided to get myself back out there playing all things Breakbeat Hardcore.. Ive been back in studio & had a record signed by Return of the Vibe Records & been playing up and down the UK with a new residency for Strawberry Sundae .. sesyou on dance floor soon! Peace.
