Basstyler - The Key

This is the forst on a new series of remix eps from Knitebreed. The Hyper-On Experience remix of TNO’s Xenotransplantation is a lesson in how to do a remix, take the best bits, amplify them & add some secret sauce! Then we have 2 of KFR favourites, Paul Bradley – Nobody Else remixed by our very own Beeno, raw, powerful & unashamedly banging. Then we have another headline level remix from Boykz & Chapman. They remixed Breed’s Wislov’s My Mind In Your Eyes & made it a proper Boykz & Chapman classic. Rounding out Volume 1 we have the husband & wife duo of Sunny & Deck Hussy remixing 1 of the tracks that brought Knitebreed back to life, The Timespan That Piano Song. Never was a perfect fit for a remix so obvious!

Tony, who had already had a release on Chill Records with Blame (Murderin MC/Death Row) tells me that the day he went over to work on some tunes with Andrew, he just grabbed a handful of records from his collection and turned up brimming with ideas. "It was quite sampled based, I had a lot of hip hop and just started to collect the original breakbeats". Andrew was already an accomplished producer, releasing quality techno on Chill Records and it's sister label Up-Roar under the names Rotor, Campher & Menthol, and the aforementioned Terra Incognita. He recalls "Tony had a great collection of hip hop vinyl, so we had a ton of great samples to hand. Our “Concrete Jungle EP” as Justice & Mercy was a huge hit. We took some pretty big liberties with sampling other work, but everyone was doing it. The sampler was king. Rather than hook up MIDI equipment, I would just borrow synths and drum machines off friends, and sample the sounds I liked. It wasn’t as flexible as having the real equipment, but it was a lot less hassle. I’d do anything to avoid having a tangled mess of cables everywhere. I can’t remember exactly what I’d sampled, but there was definitely a Roland SH-101 in there somewhere".

The main sample in 'Sooth My Soul' was 'My Love' by Collapse which Tony bought in Soul Sense Records in Luton back in 1991, and he was just itching to flip it into a jungle tune. The vocal in SMS was from 'Shelter Me' by Circuit. "The whole tune just came together. All the samples just worked and we did it in one session, though Andrew would of had to work on the mix afterwards to get it right" Tony muses. Andrew continues "I initially had mixed feelings about Soothe My Soul. It’s a great track, one of my all time favourites, but it was very sampled loop heavy, which is something I’d usually tried to avoid. It was all written on the EPS, and it really came around because Tony found the amazing synth and vocal break and adding the “Soothe My Soul” sample just finished it off nicely! It still sends tingles down my spine 27 years later, and I consider it the best track Tony and I did together. It was one of those tracks that just fell into place. It’s always nice when that happens! One of the interesting things in the track is that a bug in the EPS sequencer timing produced an interesting side effect. The bug affected the duration of notes randomly, as the EPS was not very precise. The lead instrument had a bit of noise after it, that should have been truncated off, but on some of the notes, it played a fraction of the noise, creating what sounds like another deliberately played instrument behind the lead sound".

The EP went on to become a huge release at the time and cemented the names of Justice & Mercy into the heart of the emerging jungle scene. Both EPs were caned at all the biggest raves across the UK through the summer of 1992, appearing on mixtapes from all the big players and energising ravers the length and breadth of the country, as Andrew fondly recalls; "My favourite ever event was Fantazia: One Step Beyond in Donnington, back in 1992. I think there were more than 25,000 people dancing in a field, and this one was actually legally organised. The atmosphere was electric, and to top it off, the second from last tune of the night played was one of ours, “Soothe My Soul” by Justice & Mercy. I was right at the back, on a small hill, watching 25,000+ people going crazy to one of my tunes. You can’t beat that!"

It’s been a year since I was last chatting to Bernie and Terry AKA Serotonin AKA the world famous Krome & Time. The last interview covered their debut release on their infamous Tearin Vinyl label whereas for this interview we are taking a step back, well, quite a few steps back being how quickly the hardcore, rave and jungle scenes were progressing back then. From 1994 back to the glory year of 1992. And what a big change the scene went through over those two years and what an advancement of sound Bernie & Terry went through during that time too. So how did this project come about guys?

“This release was the bridge between us leaving Suburban Base and getting round to starting Tearin Vinyl” Terry aka Krome explains “We wanted to start something new. But we wanted to do it without people knowing it was us. To be a bit more experimental and to try a few new ideas”.

Bernie, also known as Mr. Time adds more background to the project “This was the time when the white label was king. That’s what people wanted. It felt more exclusive and special and we wanted to do something like that, to get in on that scene. So we pressed up a load of copies and filled up the boot of the car and just drove around the country. We use to use flyers to help us. Often these big raves would list local record shops where you could buy tickets, so we used those to build up a list of shops around the country using those as our resource and we would hit the road”.

Bernie continues “We use to choose an area and hit 2-3 record shops a day, dropping off records ‘sale or return’. Going back a week or two later to collect our money. With the Serotonin release we sold them all ourselves without distribution. We had pressed up a couple of thousand copies and sold them for about 5 or 6 quid each. It could of even been 3000 units for that releases, I can’t remember! It was so much fun as you were in total control of your money, as long as the shops paid you that is. But you think about it, 3000 records at £5 each, that’s not a bad chunk of change for a couple of kids. It kept us going”. Terry adds “We were based in East London, so we only travelled a certain distance every day. No further north than Milton Keynes but the vast majority of what we sold was either in London or down South. We went down to Brighton, Gravesend, Worthing and Portsmouth, as well as other places down there that I can’t remember right now. Our main fanbase was down south actually and I think that’s a lot to do with Sterns and that we played there a lot. We were well known down that part of the country due to that club and Mensa and the support he gave us. The south had such a vibrant scene which started in Worthing thanks to Sterns and it just spread out from there, along the coast”.

1. Serotonin - 'Dramatical Style' - VFS025 - 192mp3 clip

A1 // FIST FUCK 
A2 // FIST FUCK (BARKER & BAUMECKER REMIX) 
B1 // SHEPHERD 
B2 // SHEPHERD (INSTRUMENTAL)

FURFRIEND is everything you never dared to sex about. From the depths of warm and tight cavities come the two fuck pets DINGO TUSH (vocals) and DAS UBERDOG (production) be it the pleasures of gay circuit life or the sweet feel of sheep in their best years - FURFRIEND covers it all and more. 
The techno duo doesn't know their origin exactly - their memories go back to dark but also jolly times at an animal shelter in antwerp where they were kept until MUM, their recently deceased fostermother picked them up, to have them join her 21 other pets. It was a hard childhood, not even knowing what type of mam- mal you were, but the toughest part was being relentlessly used by 'MUM' as a sex slave, having to fulfill all her sexual desires in order to get a bit of food. 
Then the confusion that arose when MUM was killed having sex with her oldest aquisition ‘Bob’ the german shepherd who couldn't take it anymore and ate her face - the poor guy was put down right in front of their face. Now, being freed from the clutch of MUM Furfriend look into the bright future of being popstars, knowing this is what they were born to do. 
DAS UBERDOG has been listening to MUM's records on headphones ever since he found the power switch for the stereo - it was clear back then he would become an awesome producer. DINGO TUSH, the singer of the duo, howled the melody of 'my favourite things' when MUM was watching her favourite show: ‘The sound of music‘ - they were clearly bound to become a music production team. It just had to happen eventually. 
These times are long past now, but they have left a mark on their souls which they heartbreakingly sing about in songs like ‘GECK’ ‘FIST FUCK’ or ‘SHEPHERD’ which relates to the tough life, herding sheep just after MUM had passed away. 
Originally based in Antwerp the duo has now made a move for Berlin.
“Antwerp was just not the right place for us. As much perversion as there is in belgium, it is the people of Berlin we love for the open sexual deviance present all over Berlin. We think this is the right breeding ground (haha) for our art.” says DINGO TUSH, the band's cockslinging singer. Techno just has a different meaning here - everybody does it, spit in a corner, and you’ll hit a DJ! This is perfect for us because it shows what people really want. and we are here to give it to them.” adds DAS UBERDOG, the musical genius behind the furfriend productions.

KILLEKILL 013 | FURFRIEND - PRAYERS FOR PERVERSION + BARKER & BAUMECKER REMIX- snippets

The label was established in 2018 as a means to release the back catalogue of renowned Jungle Techno label Underdog Recordings, which ran from 1993-1995. It quickly expanded from beyond the original goal and now reissues sought after, rare and classic records from the Jungle, Rave, Bleep House, Techno and Jungle Techno genres.

The Vinyl Fanatiks aim is to track down and work with the original artists from the early 1990’s, to reissue their music on vinyl only, and to support the record hunters and vinyl diggers from around the world with quality pressings and superb mastering; a way to show respect and share the story of those that created these incredible records.

The vision is not to focus on the obvious artists of that time but to dig a little deeper and find those that came and went but their legacy still holds true to this day. Some of these producers only released one record and vanished soon after but their music still resonates into the 21st century, accumulating new audiences across the globe, far beyond the catchment of the UK pirate radios and muddy fields of 25 years ago. What happened to these artists? Its Vinyl Fanatik’s mission to find out!

Each record captures a moment in time, a vibe that was true and innocent from a period when music was far more synonymous with rebellion and anarchy than today’s finely polished productions and conformist club pop. This music itself bred on the outskirts of society, fuelled by the passion of the rave, its lineage stemming from the Acid House era of 1988. Often produced on minimal equipment, with minimal skills and knowledge, its audio blueprint transcends to new generations, a rawness that no expensive audio plug in could ever create in this present day.

Vinyl Fanatiks wants to pay homage to these young producers who forged the foundations of the multi-million pound EDM scene we have now. Each of these artists has their own tale to tell, their own memories to share. Limited by their own geographical status within the UK, they somehow still all managed to connect and influence each other, years before the internet, mobile phones and social media that we have today. But the music knew no limits and had no boundaries, transcending generations to this day.
