It's Friday . . . Let's Dance

Today's piece of vinyl was one of those records you picked up having not heard but everybody else had been raving about or in this case raving to. When I eventually got around to listening to it I was more than a little disappointed.

Forty Miles is built around a looped piano sample from Jimi Polo's Better Days and was originally released on Inner Rhythm in 1991. I have posted the instrumental version as the vocals on the other side add nothing to the track and are in truth awful.

Have a good weekend people.

It's Friday . . Let's Dance

I don't know if it's the return of the sunshine but I have a yearning to be standing in a field in the middle of nowhere listening to some old school break beat emanating from humongous speakers, which is kind of strange because I never really got into the breakbeat/hardcore scene although I did take a shine to some of the tunes, such as Trip To The Moon by Acen,  SL2's On A Ragga Tip and Far Out by Sonz of a Loop Da Loop Era.

Another track that I bought in 1992 and played quite frequently was Don't Go by Awesome 3. The track has a great breakbeat, a catchy piano hook and extremely simple lyrics to remember when you are out your tree, what's not to love?

Have a good weekend people.
