I picked up a new release from the makers of the Volume and Trance Europe
Express series last night, called "Breakbeat Science".
6 slabs o wax, 21 tracks, with the likes of 4 Hero, Spring Heel Jack,
Omni Trio, A Guy Called Gerald, Soul Slinger, Plug, the list goes on and on...
To my ears, this is all top notch stuff. I am not deeply versed in the
history and ways of the past 3 years or so of how jungle and breaks have
evolved, so to me, this sounds like a pretty good selection. Diversity among
the tracks is what I've noticed most, with some being what I guess
you'd call "techstep", to the more ambient-jungle of LTJ Bukem style.
Here's the tracklisting:
4 Hero- Universal Love (Goldie Remix)
Omni Trio- Red Rain
Spring Heel Jack- Galapagos II (in special isolation)
Tamsin- Innocence
Solo- Dominion
DJ Pulse- Planet Funk
E-Z Rollers- Spin Out
L Double & Younghead- New Style
Roni Size & DJ Krust- Formulate
Hidden Agenda- Vindication
Aquasky- Sea Monkey
DJ Trace & Nico- Area 51
Boymerang- Blue Notes
Plug- Dark Matter
Soul Slinger- The Singer
Phume- Movin' On
Skycutter- Independence Day
A Guy Called Gerald- Fabio
Witchman- Burnin' Headz
Ed Rush- Comatone
DJ Sappo- War Declared
I also managed to get the deal of the century today... two used Technics 1210s
for $500! I can finally mix proper, and I'm going to start with these six
choice pieces of vinyl.
on: Secret Knowledge- Sugar Daddy (Disco Eruption Mix)
