Its Time To Bring On The Rush...Ecstasy, it really gets me going, its gets me so i dont know what i'm doing

its on a DJ Seduction tape

it's Xenophobia's "Rush in the House" on Kickin'. The voice is MC Scallywag, who later did a tune with Spiral Tribe. Love the cheeky Kinks rip. Great bibbly bassline. Flipside "The Wobbler" is also good -- "are you feeling w-w-w-w-w-w-wobbly????". Summer of '92 -- sigh.

hold up.... is this the simon reynolds who wrote a book called "Generation Ecstacy," several years back?

oh of course, i knew i had it somewhere, i just couldnt place it...

incidentally, simon, i'm curious about the absence of Criminal Minds ~ Baptized By Dub in energy flash/generation ecstasy...

'Baptized By Dub' and Dance Conspiracy's 'Dub War' are my two favourite rave/hardcore tracks these days

the wobbler, thats "oh no, not you again" isnt it? dont really like that, it has the sound is for the underground break and a cockney going "oh no, not you again" and yet somehow manages not to be great:( who'd have thought?

>the absence of Criminal Minds ~ Baptized By Dub

oh there was so many great tunes (like that one) that i had to leave out -- i could probably have filled the entire discography's space with just hardcore -- also many mystery tunes on pirate tapes i would have liked to have included that i've since identified

hey simon do you happen to know what this is? (3mb mp3)

My favorite track of all time was something that came out in 1996 and I heard it on some techno radio show - a speed freaky track with a sample that went "you'll never take me alive copper!". The DJ said that it was called "1000 Bars" or "A Thousand Bars" or something like that. Probably some compilation track that'll never surface again. Any ideas? anyone..... anyone? :)

"A juicy red apply is nice, but...not every apple is red!"

Thoughts?

that'll be apple", then...

"a juicy red apple" - skin up.

No, it's the one that looks like him, writes like him, thinks like him,....

no, thats eminem

Good grief, I hate that Skin Up track. But anyway...

minna, a lot of your mp3 is from Asmo featuring MC XL - "Rush the Dance" (the Italo-housey piano chords and Black-Boxy vocals, the piano arpeggios, the "2 Bad Mice Take You" break and the "A to the S to the M to the O, you know it's Asmo... go to the beat, move to the beat, rock!" MCing), but I don't know what the other tune(s?) mixed in with the "see you shining like a star" vocals etc is.

Be sure to snag "Rush the Dance" and not "Jam the Dance": "Rush" is the ruffed-up remix with MCing, JTD is slower, MC-less, kind of plodding, and doesn't have that nice plump flanged and reverbed synth riff.

This is probably the wrong place to ask, but if anyone has the tracker .mod file by substance aka kuu of mono and kinky which quotes the thread title lyrics in its sampletext I'd be grateful for a copy. I think it's called Babylon and it's not on the Aminet mods/sbc archive. (Speaking of .mods, I bet tons of these rave classics were written in Protracker or similar - I know Trip to Trumpton was tracked on an Amiga - and, well, wow, what I'd give to get my hands on a copy of the original files, heh.)

One last stupid query: where's that "don't want to lose you now, I've come on all delusional" (or similar) vocal on 2 Bad Mice's "Hold It Down" from?

I was really hoping this was a thread about Rush.

Urban Shakedown's 'some Justice' was written using just two Amigas :)

Not directly relevant to this thread, but:

simon r, re-reading "Energy Flash" the other day I noticed a reference to a Spiral Tribe rave in Surrey in the summer of '92, which was apparently "on private land at at the owner's invitation". You don't have any idea who the landowner was, do you? It ***might just*** be someone I know.

I was hoping this would be a thread about Bobby Rush.

i was hoping this thread would about exactly what it is about

it was in your hands.

no, I messed it up :).
