Crazy mix from Stimpy, featuring over 100 jungle tunes looped and mashed up, this is more of a project than a mix.
Huge effort gone into this.

Total Science might not be at the same standard these days, but from 1992 to the turn of the millenium they were (along with Dillinja) the most consistent and productive producers around, and they could easily turn their hand to any style.
Split Personality came out on Timeless in 1996, sounding very much like Source Direct’s [...]

This is one of three dubplates I bought from Phil Aslett about 2 years ago on eBay, surprisingly they had gone unnoticed so I got them for a cheap price.
Anyway, 2 of the 6 tunes on the dubplates were fully unreleased, one was a downtempo thing like Modus Operandi, and one was a jazzy D&B [...]

Now, first of all I must make this clear, this interview is by the lovely folk at www.kmag.co.uk , check out the site, its a huge resource for contemporary drum and bass.

According to http://mediacontender.com this is the only Photek (oldskool) live set in existence, so obviously I had to link it.
I haven’t had a chance to listen to it yet so if anyone does a tracklisting before I do, let me know.
So, the ONLY old school Photek set in existence, Live @ Muse in Hollywood [...]

RollDaBeats returns to Camden’s Lockside Lounge for another session of old skool vibes. This time around we’re super excited to having two true legends playing – Tango & Ratty. These boys, infamous for tearing dancefloors apart in the early 90s and pioneers of the 93 darkside sound, will be playing a special two hour back [...]
