Old Skool (acid house, acid breaks)

[Logic Theorist]

Someone mentioned orbital having an old skool sound, and that reminded me how much I used to love acid house and acid breaks. Anyone know where I could get some good mp3 DJ mixes of this stuff?

"...... GO! (yeah eah eah)"

I think thou I am not sure being at work and all.....a few of months back Mixmag had a free cd entitled "I Love 1993" or something like that which featured some Acid House......and supposedly this months issue" which I cannot for the life of me find" has 2 cds filled with Acidy stuff..........thou I am not sure...Im going to look thru some of my back issues and let you know if I what I come up with.....

X-MIX released a mix CD called "Jack The Box" by HardFloor like 2 yrs. ago that had alot of the classic Chicago Acid House trax. It still might be available, it was distributed by "!K7"

Okay I found the disc. Its actually called "I Love 1991". Nice little numbers on there........I remember

Here's the track listing:

1. Altern 8 "Infiltrate 202"
2. New Atlantic "I Know"
3. React 2 Rhythm "Intoxication" (Leftfield Remix)
4. Fortran 5 "Look To The Future"

13. Ramirez "La Musica Tremenda"
14. Rising High Collective "Fever Called Love"
15. Nightmares On Wax "Dextrous"

as far as the other cds I was talking about. I located the sonofabitches.....its a 2 cd set entitled "I Love 1992" The first one is listed as Big Tunes and the other is listed as Underground Anthems

some of the tunes included:

Leftfield "Release the Pressure"

Dj Hell "my definition of house"

and on the Underground Anthems cd:
Original Unkown " Valley of the Shadows"
2 Bad Mice "Bombscare"
HardFloor "Acperience"
Cybersonic " technarchy"

I was supposed to get the choons but my girl decided to lift my wallet and purchase the new New Order......so now Ive got to wait till today..........either way let me know if its what your looking for and I''ll hook you up with some burned copies or hell I might even have to hit up my hook up who works at Barnes and Nuts........peace

Holy crap!

I remember 2badMice - Bombscare

Teehehehe. Those were the days yo!

I recognize a lot of those names off of that track listing: Joey Beltram, Pragha Kahn, NOW, Leftfield.

I have a good oldies comp from '93. It was one of my first dance music cd's. It's on smle and it's titled "Best of Techno 3"

It's a lot of old school breaks, with a few trancier house numbers on it. I'm not sure if it's a little too mainstream for your tastes, but here goes.

track listing

N.R.G. - I Need Your Love
Joey Beltram - Get Into Life
Acen - Trip ll The Moon
Psychotropic - Hypnosis
Eden Transmission - I'm So High
Smart E's - Sesame's Treat
Nighttripper - Tone Exploitation (I sooo want this record, it still rocks)
First Project - Right Before
FX Creators - And You Will Enjoy
Project One - Roughneck
Acen - Just Close Your Eyes
Digital Bass - Bass Explosion

Enjoy.

For the record, I hate Sesame's Treet.

The page is still down, but the most bad ass collection of old skool tracks can be found at:

Funny somebody should mention 2 Bad Mice - Bombscare. It was house that opened the door for me to electronic music, but it was this track that got me full swinging into it.

I have a few comps and mixes from "back in the day" if somebody wants to trade copies.

Yeah Sesame's Treat is kind of a whip.

My fav tracks on that are the Nighttripper and Eden Transmission ones.

I bet if someone threw either of those on at a club today they'd still blow the roof off that beeeyotch.

If it wasn't so costly and expensive to get the old skool hardcore....I'd spin it nonstop.
