Smoke 'em if you got 'em


As threatened, some persistent sounds of yesterthen.

Rock To The Beat was an anthem to those who spent hours stepping from one foot to the next, while nodding, in a freezing Blackburn warehouse, or Manchester’s Hacienda, during the late 80’s and the earliest years of 90’s. It sounded terribly exotic to me when I first heard it, like the coolest, most deliberately underground and bleak track ever… Still love it.

Reese & Santonio: Rock To The Beat

This next track was released during the bleeps and bass house movement of 1989 – 91, which sprung from northern UK cities Sheffield, Leeds and Bradford.

Rhythmatic: Take Me Back


Couldn’t find the original Push Push, but this M.A.N.D.Y reworking pretty much does the job.
