Sounds like an interesting remix single.
I've got a compilation called "7 Hills Clash: Deeper Signals" with a
catalogue # DRC 1. It's a pretty tasty collection of tracks from the
Sheffield labels Earth, Wholesome, 10 Denk, and Breakbutt; the back
cover also says that there is another comp called "7 Hills Clash Signals
from the Sheffield Underground" (DON 1).
The music is drum and bass but not as uh annoying (in a good way!) as
the fungle stuff or as commercial as all the rest. Lots of wacky sounds
and colour and a lot of fun, I guess you could say. I would say that the
music there is closer to the original jungle approach, if my knowledge of
that wasn't limited to one or two compilations (eg. DJs Unite vol.3 -
which isn't bad either). Anyone else have an opinion on this?
More to the point, can anyone ID the artists? I'm sure DJ Parrot of
Sweet Exorcist fame is present - Earth is supposed to be his label - but
his name doesn't appear on the credits, many of which look like
pseudonyms (eg. Screwface, Moonstomp, Rudolf Rude Nose etc.)
