Hailing from Oxford, Graham Mew started life as a producer as Doctor G producing vintage breakbeat hardcore in 1991 and ’92. The Invisible Man alias surfaced that year with the launch of his new label Timeless Recordings in late 1992. The labels first release was the seminal On A Mission EP which helped laid the blueprint for the [...]

Tidy mix here by Evade Roughneck tracks from the Kemet crew, Remarc, EZ Rollers and more. A word from the man himself; I gone done did a mix, ennit. There are a few lesser known tunes in there along with some classics. It’s available to download and stream from Soundcloud. The track listing is as [...]

Inspired by listening to both J- Rolla and Blick’s excellent All Peshay Mixes todays bargain jungle tune is Ruby – Salt Water Fish (Peshay Remix). Ruby was the collaboration of singer Lesley Rankine and Mark Walk.

Origination consisted of a certain Rupert Parkes AKA Photek and Rob Solomon (Lexis & RJS) before they both found solo success of Certificate 18 and beyond. The tune in question is ‘Music Takes Control’, a classic mix of rugged early jungle vibes with tough beats and bass, combined with uplifting strings and of course; the all important [...]

I do the miss the designs of flyers like these, especially the old Fantazia and Dreamscape ones that look like across between Gamesmaster and The Lawnmower man. Early 90′s CGI was [...]

A great mix from Recoil here cross all styles from 92 to 94 with some deep from the crates. A word from the man himself… Late 92 -> early 94 – all original plates.  It was basically an excuse to rinse out some recent arrivals in the mail, so there’s a variety of oldskool styles [...]

A mix I knocked up in 2007, showcasing some of the darker Headz tunes up until around 1996. I have re-upped this one in anticipation to Metalheadz History sessions at Cable on 19th November 2011. More on the official Facebook event page. As you would expect, plenty of Rufige, Photek , Source Direct, Dilinja and co. [...]
