speed garage C/D, S/D

Todd Terry 'Somethin Goin On In Your Soul (Loop Da Loop mix - THINK thats the right mix)'

? - features the lyric 'Lonely people' - long shot!

RIP Crew 'We R E' (remix of the legendary proto-jungle anthem)

That "Flowers" tune rocked, but that's maybe a bit late for you?

Was also always partial to Underground Distortion's "Everything is large". Super-scratchy snares and timestretch overload on the break.

Finally don't know who produced it, but I've got a white from early '98 called 'Rub a dub' which has the 4beat scratchy snare style, but loads all the snares onto the back end of the bar in a timbo style. Has a horn loop and a dub bassline, and was devastating at the time.

i love it when you buy some records on discogs and instead of using stiff cardboard to line the box they just throw some random dollar records in there. even better it's dance 12s, like this single sided promo stuffed in an order that showed up yesterday.

it might be the worst speed garage i've ever heard!

i think i'm going to keep it

CLASSIC

the infernal honking between the first and second drop

ppl are going to be like “that’s just bad hard house but with the spin spin sugar drums”

in my defense, based on the title alone i was going to chuck in the trash without even listening, until i took a closer look at the promo sticker

actually wait they stole the whole hook from spin spin sugar and disguised it as infernal honking, didn’t they?

BIG UP THE BASS ITS TIME TO GET DOWN

I'm actually gutted this isn't a speed garage mix of "You Sexy Thing" but yes this is suitably awful

Nah that’s a Voodoo Ray rip right?

Terrible example but I have a soft spot for this kind of track tbh. Especially old Loop Da Loop remixes that have barely anything to do with the original records they are based on.

No idea why anyone decided this should be almost 9 minutes long, but this kind of thing:

One of the most fun mixes....ever?

you can get so many amazing garage (speed and 2-step) tracks just by buying cheap millenium chartpop CD-singles, the b-sides always have a remix which bears no relation to the original.

like, who is the market for a speed garage remix of Space?

anyway that neonjoe84 Youtube channel has some amazing examples of this terrible idea:

Also to get all hardcore ‘nuum on it, that Montius Maximus track is by Mark Williams who was in ‘A Homeboy, A Hippie and a Funky Dred’ (who put out the breakbeat hardcore classic ‘Total Confusion’) and was part of Rising High Collective with Caspar Pound (who among other things released some of the first Spiral Tribe affiliated 12”s and some pioneering UK proto trance etc)

No idea how he got from there to ‘Voodoo Ray’ with honking noises but that’s quite a legacy tbf.

Xp I’ll see your Space remix and raise you a completely unnecessary 187 Lockdown remix of Alabama 3
