Nightmares On Wax - A Word Of Science
Increasingly critical of the hardcore scene they'd helped to spawn, duo George Evelyn and Kevin Harper countered dance music's 'heavy mental' tendencies by lacing their debut album with delicious doses of hip-hop and electronic soul. "Imagine a world where rap and house were one, two sides of the same three pound note. Nightmares on Wax attitude is slightly different to other DJs-turned-musicmakers: sure, they're hardcore at times but they're mellow too.
Their instrumental hip hop is compelling, mysterious. Their samples are a shade different.

Prefuse 73 - Security Screenings
Security Screenings is a collection of intricate instrumental material that this man is celebrated for. Sun skewed, close-to-the-edit hip hop warmth blessed with the earthy sounds of early 70's Jazz. Prefuse explains: 'its a collection of songs based on reactions to certain things that happened through the course of doing press, touring, and recording for the past year or so.'
An absolute gem of a record. One of the few who is pushing the genre forward into new brighter pastures.

Remarc - Unreleased Dubs 94-96
Remarc puts you in the middle of a warzone.
Remarc continues with another selection of his work from the golden age of jungle, 1994-1996. This time it's tracks that never saw full release for one reason or another and in case you didn't know, Remarc likes a little bit of the Amen break.
This superb jungle could save the world... and possibly make me dance my tits off!
