bosstrabs Nope. I was listening Cypress Hill, Snoop Dogg and Rage Against The Machine in 95. And I left England in 96.

hugopal The only one of their GU discs which was alright was Disc 1 of Moscow (skipping the Dido if you must).

Nah, that was an absolute shocker. Hideous vocal tracks everywhere. Any good track immediately followed by some absolute unlistenable shite, so you could never listen to even a 3-track sequence.

The Toronto Afterhours mixes were their only acceptable output for GU.

    Weren’t deep dish the ones who remixed the “Nobody Listens To Techno” line from Eminem on loop, over a ridiculous (in a good way) techno beat. This was around 2002? Remember Diggers and Danny Howells playing it. Monster track.

    Also, just saw Moscow’s tracklist, all of us were reaching for the lazers when the vocal on Rapture drops.

      Always loved this off the Sharam effort -

        Think it was them with Danny Howells

          Isn’t one half responsible for the monster remix of System 7 - Spacebird that only Digweed seems to have a copy of?

            Dubfire techno totally put me off techno. Worst come down of my life listening to his set live.

            This however, is the beast of all beasts. Tore the roof off every single time I played it in a club.

            Hursty is that literally taken from the actual mix he did? (Which still stands out as one of Diggers best ever)

              Old-Dutch it was DDD - Techno. Deep Dish and Danny Howells yes. It came out on a white label in 2003 or so, I have it, excellent quality too, so must’ve been put out by them cheekily. Lots of people hated it, but I actually still love it.

                LT42 probably, impossible to get hold it, I did message him on Facebook about 10 years ago regarding it, he replied saying it would be a good idea to release it but alas it never has. It almost sounded as though he’d forgotten about it

                  Hursty sounds like he mugged you right off there lol

                  He never wanted it to be released as he thought it sounded too proggy, lol - it’s head and shoulders above anything else he’s done in about 20 years.

                  Is there a link to that mix? Im due a wank

                    To be honest I’ve never heard anything else like it in my relatively short career.

                    Cheers H

                    Homegrove Thanks hannu. Very cool you blagged it, looked for it everywhere during my vinyl shopping days in that time.

                      rhouses I bought it from a German shop, did not blag it. Decks.de had it at the time.

                      I also have this on vinyl. You could have picked it up handy enough back in the day as a white. Think i bought it in Tag records in Dublin for a tenner

                        Old-Dutch darn tootin, Dutchy. He was in great form. Thanks for that. 👍

                        bosstrabs cream separated was ace. Had the cassettes in my car when I was a yoof.

                        Smallman1 I played this recently at a party I played at, sadly it cleared the floor!

                          gcw I don’t think it was the song which did that - it was probably because Smalls entered the dancefloor when it came on.

                          I was driving home from Chestnut Hill College to Reading pa, and I had this on my cd player. I was bored with it and threw in out onto Route 724 at Birdsboro , Pa

                            hugopal Very odd behaviour if they’d publicly slagged it off not long beforehand.

                              Echo ha, on page 88:

                              “Sharam: [listens to Starecase and Breeder remixes] I’ve never heard a great song go to shit like this, and by two different people.”

                              This was at exactly the same time as they were releasing the CD single in the US with both the Starecase and Breeder versions on it, then the next year they stuck them both on the 2×12 remix package.

                              As I said, very odd behaviour.

                              I will boldly go where others fear to tread. Was overplayed at the time but sounds fucking fab with the benefit of time. Treacles LOVE it too

                                Homegrove Will take a copy if possible please H. Heard it a bit at the time but never bumped into a copy.

                                  I’d never actually checked these out before. Just given them a whirl now.

                                  I’m not really sure what’s meant to be “after hours” about them, both seem fairly run-of-the-mill GU-type discs.

                                  I slightly prefer Sharam’s, but both are distinctly average. I guess that is still an improvement over their main Toronto discs though.

                                  As an aside - it’s a bit strange that Dubfire’s mix has St Etienne ‘Cool Kids of Death’ (Underworld Mix) on it, as per disc 2 of Tenaglia Athens. I’m surprised GU let that slide.

                                  Are there any other instances of the exact same track appearing in two different GU albums?!
