These are a set of DJ mixes encoded from old cassette tapes which I originally recorded between 1991 and 1993 and sold through record shops or mail order back in the day. It’s a document from those great years as it happened and a record of the journey I was going through exploring and discovering the new music of the day, alternating between my two big influences of the the time, breakbeat hardcore and techno. 

It really is as it happened - tunes I was buying that week and unreleased promos I was being given. There’s even the odd tune I probably wouldn’t draw for now, plus amusingly at one point I play Renegade Soundwave - ‘Phantom’ on 45 (much to my retrospective shock!). But this was the era of Hardcore, it was fresh and different, there were no rules.

There’s no tracklistings. Some are obvious bangers and anthems of the time which you’ll know, some are not, and some are obscure releases which even I’m struggling to remember what they were. The mixes echo what I was playing on Pulse 90.6FM as well as at raves such as Helter Skelter, Labrynth, Slimetime, Knowledge, VFM and Eurobeat 2000.

Things kick off in the heyday of Dutch and Belgian Euro, inter-spliced with the UK Breakbeats of the time - think CJ Bolland, Altern-8, Tim Taylor. Then there’s a slew of 92 mixes that capture the fast pace changes in Hardcore’s golden year with too many names to mention, but as an example there’s labels like Moving Shadow, Reinforced, Rising High and producers like Nebula II, Guy Called Gerald, Doc Scott and so on. As the mixes move towards the end of 92, Techno starts creeping in, so there’s early Underground Resistance, Aphex Twin and lots of breakbeat stuff that was picking up on this sea change. With the 93 mixes, it’s the darker hardcore that was increasing in tempo (and post ‘Sesame Street’ pitched up vocals) acting as the pre-cursor of what would then become Jungle. The last mixes are predominantly Hard Techno and Gabba but tinged with Rave and Breakbeat, possibly not to everyone’s liking at this point but nonetheless a representation of another very vibrant strand of what was happening on the underground by late 93.

Quite impressed I had the foresight to record almost all of these onto metal cassette so given the technology, the recordings are not too bad. Unfortunately there’s a couple of moments of distortion on the early mixes, usually from two basslines in the mix but remember these were the days of mixers with no channel EQ or LED lights. And to be honest the mixes are by no means always perfect but nonetheless capture the moment. They’ve all been recorded as is, with no edits, all from take. 

So over to you to push play and enter the rave….

Old Skool mixes

De Underground was a hardcore and jungle record shop based in Forest Gate in the 1990s run by Mike De Underground, Cool Hand Flex, Uncle 22. and Randall. 

By pure chance, it opened on the very road that I lived on and I ended up being in an out of that shop most days until I moved to a different part of town in 1994, and looking back it was a very important part of my life in those days.

It was much more than just a record shop though. As well as essentially being an important hardcore/ junglist social centre with everyone who was anyone in the scene passing through at some point, it was also an umbrella for a multitude of in-house labels with vinyl being pressed up (on what seemed like a weekly basis) of tunes made in large part by Cool Hand Flex and Uncle 22 in a studio based at the back of the shop. Added to this were contributions and releases from Asides, Lennie D’Ice, Hype, MC Fats, Randall, Marlon and Navigator. Though not one of the shop’s labels as such, Reel 2 Reel Records was based just around the corner and was (literally) part of the family too, being run by John Reel 2 Reel, brother to Cool Hand Flex and Mike De Underground. For those that knew, (it’s legacy is often overlooked in the history of hardcore and jungle) the shop served as an exclusive outlet for labels such as i.e. Records, In Touch Records, Oddball, Pure Energy, Ruff Groove, U No Dat, Reel 2 Reel, and of course De Underground records itself.

This mix set me an a personal journey to go back through over 100 or so records from all the De Underground labels and also Reel 2 Reel. There’s the big ones that I've always gone back to, but then there’s also a wealth of undiscovered gems that with the help of Discogs I could actually work out and rediscover what some of these mysterious white labels were.

There’s definitely scope for a part 2 to this mix. There’s so many more tunes I could have played and you have to think that some of these EPs come loaded with 3 or 4 tracks, plus things very much continue after 1994. That’s an immense back catalogue.

As Asides recently said, the back catalogue is “a mystery waiting to be unravelled”. This mix starts that process, but if you have an evening spare and want to dig deeper, then check these 2 links.

Threads Radio - July 2021 Part 1

Well it's not all from London I know, but like many a scene, London has often been a processing point for what's being generated elsewhere. In this case, very much courtesy of Frankfurt, Detroit, Rotterdam, New York and of course the UK itself. This is a fairly close recreation of the regular sets I played at VFM, Dead By Dawn, Eurobeat 2000, Institute Of Goa, Helter Skelter and various squat parties (Spiral Tribe, Bedlam) in and around London. Hard banging techno leading up to some of the decent first instances of gabba.  It's at a point where things were quickly splintering off from the highly successful UK Rave Hardcore sound of 92 and reconnecting with a harder updated version of what had previously been coming out of Detroit, Brooklyn, Belgium and Holland around 89/90/91. Looking back, though it seemed such a very separate sound from breakbeat hardcore, with the distance of time they were both very much shades of the same rave. Ah the memories….

Originally recorded 26th August 2021

Threads Radio - Aug 2021

For this months show, it’s an excursion into some forgotten 90s Techno gems. It was a very much off the cuff session with no planning, just pulling records off the shelf and mixing them as I found them so it’s a bit rough round the edges, but there’s some real memories in there. Mostly 93-96 material, The sort of tunes I played at Eurobeat 2000, Helter Skelter and Analogue City around that time. It was a real rediscovery for me so I hope you enjoy the journey. Top tracks from Cristian Vogel, Subhead, Claude Young, Mark Bell, DJ Hell, Djungle Fever and the like.

Threads Radio - April 2022

Check out this set from our party last November by DJ Warlock.
Warlock took the Distant Planet ravers on a journey of all things breakbeat hardcore starting with 1992, a year that many involved weekly trips to shops like De Underground to get the latest wax to play at parties around the UK and on his weekly show on Pulse FM 90.6.

You can catch Warlock playing alongside Louise +1, Hughesee, FFF, Dwarde, Gand and Equinox on Friday night @ Bangface Weekender 2022 as part of the Distant Planet takeover of The Queen Vic.

Warlock @ Distant Planet - Venue MOT Nov 2021 - Bangface Teaser

Originally broadcast 17 Dec 2013.

For this show, I went back to the mostly Dutch and Belgian sounds of 1991. Plenty of vintage business, turn it up :-)

Threads Radio - May 2022

Turning back the time machine for a visit to the early noughties (2001-2006) and the classic sound of 2-step, broken beat, breaks and a touch of breakstep. Music that was in a large part the precursor to dubstep. Music from the likes of Horsepower, Darqwan, Afronaught, Zinc, El-B and much more.

Warlock - Peckham Heights (Kick + Clap)

Winding back the time machine just a few years to the heyday of the breaks music that was going on 2001-2008. Heads down breakstep riddims heavily influenced by the dark d&b of the time meets jump up garagey breaks plus some fusionistic electro-breaks.

Too many big tunes from the likes of Darqwan, Vex’d, Zinc, Mark One, Tipper, Drop The Lime, Milanese, Noyeahno, Aaron Spectre, Chase & Staus, King Cannibal and many more.

Warlock: Kool London - Breakstep Breakbeat 2001-2008 retrospective

This week on another retrospective mission. Focusing on one of those genres that never overly thrust itself out there with a bang, but stealthily and self assuredly bubbled away for over a decade and has steadily emitted its signal ever since. We are of course talking about the second wave of Electro from approximately 1995-2005. Moments of vintage brilliance from the likes of Drexciya, The Advent, Dopplereffekt, Dexorcist, Anthony Rother, Radioactive Man, Voice Stealer and much much more.

DJ Warlock - Studio Mix Vol 7 - Side A - originally recorded February 1993.

Techno is firmly getting a foot hold once again, at least in my mind anyway. This really reminds me of the great period that 'Knowledge' was running at SW1 club and the few sets I played there. Music from Labworks, Experimental, Frankie Bones and some of the first emissions out of Rotterdam before it got all silly.

Warlock - We Buy Gold mix

This show was so much fun. So many memories. Focusing on the early days of dubstep, so lots of style setting legendary moments from the likes of Digital Mystikz, Skream, Coki, Loefah, Caspa, 6 Blocc, Benga and much more. Largely UK-centric on the golden years right up until when the sound got gnarly and ignited the American scene. Deep and heavy low slung vintage beats all the way.

Warlock: Kool London - Dubstep 2005-2008 retrospective

This is the recording of me DJ-ing at one of my favourite techno clubs from back in the day. Finally got round to encoding the cassette. For those that don’t know, KNOWLEDGE was a weekly Wednesday night techno haven and I was there religiously almost every week. This was one of the occasional all nighters I played at and I remember getting together about 10 pages of guestlist comprising listeners on Pulse FM and loads of mates (shouts to anyone who was there!!). It was such a good night, the place was rammed and I think Aphex was playing a live set before me. Kicking off with some faster techno and acid of the time and leading up to some full on gabba and distorted 909 kick drums. The mix isn’t perfect but it captures the time. Recorded 7th April 1993.

DJ Warlock set at Knowledge SW1 April 1993

This one's a journey! Nearly 6 hours, it's the recording of the whole night down at Peckham's Rye Wax, me and Jerome Hill bussin out all shades of the rave new and old b2b from start to finish at JERK. Saying you've got White Line's to Trace's Sonar doesn't even start to scratch the surface. And talking of scratching, there's decksterity a plenty with Jerome bending it. And talking of talking, well, listen in and let the blend of music do it....

Final Blow - Warlock

This is a vinyl excursion from the faster Hardcore of 93, through Jungle’s heyday of 94 and 95 and just edging up to the beginnings of drum & bass. Plenty of amens, lots of darkness, obligatory big bass and a ton of my heroes. 

Bad ass music from the likes of Dillinja, Ed Rush, Face Records, Remarc, Juice Records, Lemon D, Krome & Time, D Bridge, No U Turn, FBD Project, Legend Records, Pascal & Sponge, Metalheadz, M.T.S, Krust, Technical Itch, Marvellous Kane and more.

Warlock - Jungle 93-96 Mix

New vinyl only four-track acid EP out on Kalbata's Brush & Broom label. 

As the press release says....
"Ex-amount of jaw-grind action.  "Violent Rays" and "Swearings" are both straight-up warehouse workouts, comfortably placed next to reflective after-hour gushers "Run DC" and "Cave Tone". Once again, Warlock demonstrates stunning crisp production, touched by old-school heritage, dating back to pre-94 legislation times. Essential."

Tsugi Premiere : Warlock - Shock Headed

Utterly astounded by the amount of new and forward thinking music I’ve found this month trawling through promos and what’s out there online. People have been busy and making good use of lockdown!  

So much so, this one is more of a mix than a show, it had to be.  Two hours just wasn’t enough.

Coursing through electro, breakbeat, dubstep, 2-Step, bass, DnB and more. 

Show downloadable.

Threads Radio - Sept 2020

This is a mix of 91/92 tunes I used to rinse back in the day at such places as Slimetime, Roller Express, Labrynth and of course on Pulse 90.6FM. There's no let up, it's full on face melting nut nut hardcore, as dirty as you like.

Future Sound of Breakbeat Mix

Here's a mix of some of the heavy, jackin techno tunes I was playing in the early half of the 90's. Roughly 1991 to 1995 and the sort of pounding analogue 909 beats I was dropping at Eurobeat 2000, Knowledge, Analogue City and Helter Skelter's Technodrome. Loosely speaking, it's on a Beltram -Armani - Landstrumm flex. Great days, great days…..

Warlock - 91-95 Classic Techno mix

Warlock takes us deep into 2 step territory. Lush bass and tinkling beats wash over you. Deep and meditative.

WARLOCK - Das Booty Valentine's Special

A true hero of UK underground music we are thrilled to have the one and only Warlock stepping up to the plate providing a special 2 hour session of all things dark in garage. A seminal figure in uk rave scene since the early 90s Warlock has carved unique path whether being involved in the early free party scene playing warehouse techno, playing forward thinking electro at vital parties such as haywire or even nowadays where his productions can be found on labels such as Sneaker Social Club; all of this only scratching the surface.

This one is not one to be missed, read more about the mix from the man himself below

“This mix captures the really exciting times that were the early 2000s. That 2-Step sound was a perfect melting pot for all the garage, breaks and drum & bass that had come before it. A cross section of producers taking influences from left right and centre. I’ve got fond memories of traipsing around Soho record shops like Black Market and heading down to Croydon to Big Apple, picking up these tunes, blagging promos, and then times spent at FWD particularly the early days at Velvet Rooms next to the old Astoria (all now sadly demolished).  It was a big influence on me at the time - just as I was setting up my label Rag & Bone Records which it was also a big influence on. Great days, overlooked for years but finally coming of age.”
