I Have Never Heard The Singles In This Big Box Of Mostly British Dance 12 Inches Circa 2001/2002.

really love thomas ingamells doing his thing as avis van rental

j/k

The ones so far seem awful but I'm bookmarking the thread anyway, £1 british house records from this era could yield gems (tho probably a couple years too late for uk stuff)

now playing:

Lazar - And This Is Her, Smiling (C-Rock Mixes) (Stir15 Recordings - 2001)

this is not from england. this is deep dish broken house or whatever. so far so nothing. this could be the revolt of the 90's in 2001. vaguely tribal minimal whatever house. but not the good kind. sax samples...but not the good kind.

Is most of this stuff mostly like clumpy hard house or breaks or trance or something? There was a lot of all of that lying around at the time.

im hoping not, and that a few hidden treasures pop in and say hello

now playing:

DJ Hazard - Kidnap/Slipstream (Inflicted Records - 2002)

tedium & bass. like someone had read an article about something vaguely moody and dark and based tracks on the slight discomfort they felt while reading. into the rubbish bin!

well, i did like the neutron tom single. dunno if it's a "treasure" exactly. fun though.

now playing:

DJ 19 - IC (19Box Recordings - 2002)

yay, Japan! the techier the better, that's my motto. i like this.

this is the remix...

kings of tomorrow also had a popular little classic as recently as last year with 'fall for you' - http://youtu.be/aI0gytwrKXg

dj hazard had this delightfully irritating number last year - http://youtu.be/Sn50Ls_gPVk

The Fareevaders featuring MC D-White - The T-I Tune (Tar Records - 2002)

elaborate concept single about riding the tube at midnight and ticket inspectors. it even comes with a huge poster with an elaborate map of the tube system! very cheeky. good for a larf. DJ Pixie. Garage. Bongos.

now playing:

mhonolink - echoes pt. 1 (mhonday music - 2002)

go Sweden! tribal Swedes! man, this is monomania. crazy, man.

so far, japan and sweden are winning...

except for that Lazar thing. which was also from sweden i think. that stunk.

now playing:

adam jay - ornithopter (placktown sounds - 2002)

uh oh, a brit on a swedish label! will worlds collide? i dig this. hard rockin' tech house. could go for more of this. three tracks on this too which is nice. a good sampling of the adam jay magic.

posted ONE day ago on youtube. you are in luck:
