this is the 9th chapter in my 'trust me i was there' series - this is the part 1 from 1991.

91 was the year i started on pirate radio with my dj partner swift (not mampi swift btw, a different one!) we were on impact fm and our first show was the first time i'd touched a pair of technics - till then i'd been using decks without pitch, or if i was lucky some soundlabs. the studio mixer was an mrt 60, futuristic business at the time :D

swift and i did 4 hours every sat night and 4 ours sunday night, plus any cover shows we could do. keen...

music wise - 91 was a real turning point, you can really hear the uk sound starting to take off, most tracks had a breakbeat instead of the 4/4 kick that had been more common before and it sounds like the samplers were getting used in the studio more and more - for me, the music up to this point was great, but from 1991 its just becomes exceptional. the golden era of the jungle sound has now begun :D

please share this and any other music on my soundcloud with anyone you think might like it.

this is chapter 10 in my series of mixes called 'trust me i was there' - this one is pt 2 from 1991. as i said in the last one, you can really hear the sound changing, more breakbeats and to my ears a more bedroom studio sound.
included in this mix are tracks from doc scott, shades of rhythm, shut up and dance and blame, to name a few. 

please share this mix and any other music on my soundcloud with anyone you think might like it.

if you're a promoter and you'd like to book me for a 'trust me i was there' set please contact charlotte or belinda at echo. not on here or Facebook etc.

thanks for all the messages about these mixes, glad you're enjoying them as much as me :D

this is part 11 in a series of mixes called 'trust me i was there' - the tracks that were big in the clubs i was going to and the london pirates i was listening to at the time.

in 91 the music was morphing from the previous housier/US sound to a more UK vibe, with baselines and breakbeats shaping the sound. as a punter/dj back then, I had really liked the earlier music in these mixes, but from this point I felt like i was part of a scene that was largely people like me, in areas like where i lived - i was well and truly hooked!

if you think someone you know might be interested in checking it out please share with them - likewise if you have any of my music on your hard drive please share with anyone who might like it.

this is the 13th chapter in a series of mixes called 'trust me i was there' - tracks that were big in clubs and on pirate radio where i was - east london mainly - but in '92 this sound was taking over the country.

1992 holds a special place for a lot of people and its pretty clear why when you check the music that was around that year - previously there had been house influences but now the music was almost all made in the uk, all breakbeats baselines and samples, it sounded like a new and totally different music - the kind of thing that your parents say 'what the hell is that, its not proper music'...

another aspect of the music round this time is that the bpm of the music started speeding up - i'll do these 1992 mixes in rough bpm order so the speed doesn't jump around too much, and as with the other mixes no triple drop acrobatics, just simple mixing.

thanks for all the messages about this mix series, such a pleasure to share the music :D
