SKY HIGH

Blaoww!! I´d been on the hunt for this one for quite a while before I managed to find a copy in Kyoto´s Jet Set - banging drums, great looping, excellent track choice and loud pressing. Perfect.

RUN AWAY

I´ll be posting some edits in the next few days that I think are lightyears apart from the usual let-me-extend-this-kinda-rare-average-drum-intro-so-I-can-have-a-12"-with-my-name-on-the-record-or-even-better-my-dumbass-"edit"-name..

Altough this one is more on the remix tip, I think this works perfectly as a kinda mash-up rhythm track. All I know that this is most likely from ´96, anybody have more details about this? Check the charming video of the original too..

YES, YOU THRILL ME

I´ve been contemplating a long time whether this could use an edit in couple parts (the dub is off the hook) - maybe I should just get another copy and start rocking doubles..

- No Señor, Don Quixote y Sancho Panza no estan aqui!

YOU´RE SO RIGHT FOR ME

Damn. I´ve been stuck with a diabolical fever for the last three days and mostly focusing on not getting anything done..

But here´s a classic.

Check the actual record pool sheet from Rampart´s Eddie Davis that came along with the record in 1978 - highly entertaining.
