First Down - Mad Dogs & Englishmen EP

Posted by admin on Sunday, May 30, 2010

Somebody made a request for some First Down a while back and I've eventually got around to uploading this and only this as it's the only wax I have by them but it's a corker. There's some real bass heavy tracks on here, especially on 'Lessons In Agression' which you will be pleased to know is my pick for tune of the week. Another thing worth mentioning is the instrumental selection on the flip which is one track on the label but there are actually about five or six short bursts of 'Advanced Instrumentality' so I split them with letters of the alphabet beginning from the letter 'A' onwards so it's not random or confusing. Oh and I ripped this at 320kbps too so it'll knock your socks off.

A1 - Mad Dogs And Englishmen
A2 - Lessons In Aggression
A3 - See Sense
B1 - Kingdam Of Madness
B2 - See Sense (Instrumental)
B3 - Advanced Instrumentality

NSO Force - Here We Go

Posted by admin on Sunday, November 1, 2009


More NSO Force, this time from 1994 and I think I would have to single this one out to be my least favourite apart from '400 years' which I never actually bought but I was never overly impressed with that particular tune either. I think that one might've only been available on a promo pressing, I only ever saw the white label, maybe someone could clarify this?

A1 - Here We Go (darkside mix)
A2 - Here We Go (laylow mix)
B1 - Undaground Attack
B2 - Here We Go (instrumental)

Ahmad - Back In The Day

Posted by admin on Saturday, October 31, 2009

For Doctor Okeh (and you), apologies for the label photo, I didn't have a scanner when I took this and I don't have the vinyl anymore. I also appear to only have a scan of side 1 so if there are more versions on the b-side then it looks like I didn't rip 'em before ebay-ifying it. I like the Teddy Pendergrass sample, that makes the record for me.

A1 - Remix
A2 - Jeep Mix
A3 - Album Version
B1 - Remix Instrumental
B2 - Album Instrumental

Stone Risk - This Is Stone Risk

Posted by admin on Wednesday, October 14, 2009


Prime Cuts's debut outing on wax is a decent effort and not too difficult to pick up if you look hard enough, the vinyl I mean. Just two cuts on here, vocal and instrumental, it's also considered a crown jewel.

3PM - Better Late Than Never

Posted by admin on Saturday, June 6, 2009


I think this was quite possibly the last record I bought from the old Warp records shop in Sheffield before it's demise sometime around 1994-95. I bought it without giving it a spin first and the sticker they put on there just said 'UK Hip Hop' and I remember getting it mainly because there was nothing else to buy at the time as the hip hop section was being eaten up quickly by the dreadfully awful house music section. Bristol churned out some good stuff over the years and although I don't think it's 3PM's finest release, (check '3PM' and the DJ track 'lynx, quite frankly'), it's a decent example of the UK style of the time and worth a listen if only due to it's 'rare' status nowadays, (I sold my copy just this week for twice as much as I paid which was a little disappointing but a sound investment nonetheless).
