Dunfyboy's Marc Smith Mix

Download from MediaFire.
Scott Brown may have been better known outside of Scotland and he definitely released (churned out?) more music, but Marc Smith was always the King of Scottish hardcore in my opinion. He was a DJ first and foremost, but even from his first release, "Breakdown", he produced some of the best hardcore tunes and remixes of all time.

So here's a little mix in his honour, featuring his work from 92-97.

01 - Breakdown (The 'Sounds Nothing Like The 'A' Side' TTF Mix) - Marc Smith

Dunfyboy's Finger Lickin' Mix

Download from MediaFire.
I thought I'd better get this mix up by the end of the year as it's a celebration of Finger Lickin' Records, the breaks label who are celebrating their 10th birthday this year. They've released a triple album mixed by Soul Of Man to mark the occasion which you can pick up direct from Finger Lickin' for under £9 or from Amazon for under £7. I've never understood why buying direct costs more than involving a 3rd person. I saved £40 last week by not buying my new monitor direct from HP. I assume they make less profit this way. I'm just glad there isn't a worldwide recession. Idiots.

Anyway, enjoy.

Dunfyboy's Hvnly Brkbts

Download from MediaFire.

Some of these tunes appear on a compilation called Chemical Dance Culture - Test 2: Heavenly Break Beats. A bit of a mouthful, but it did give me the idea for the mix's title.

It's 80 minutes of early happy hardcore and when you listen to the mix, you might notice some D & B influences as most of these tracks are from the time when the breakbeat hardcore scene was splitting into happy hardcore and jungle.

Anyway, enjoy, and remember to not leave a comment.

PS - Defo the last old school mix for a while

Dunfyboy's Naughty Naughty Mix

Download from MediaFire.

I know, I know. I said I wasn't posting any more old school mixes for a while but I'm going to reinstall Windows and as I had a couple of old school mixes already recorded on my PC I thought I'd upload them first.

Besides, the last couple proved so popular (well, 4 people leaving coments is good going in these times of lurkers, leeches and ungrateful cunts), I thought you might like a couple more breakbeat hardcore/early happy hardcore/whatever the fuck you wanna call it mixes.

This one features the 11 Naughty Naughty bootleg 12"s that came out in 93/94. If you've never heard of them, they're basically unofficial happy hardcore remixes of dance tracks from the late 80s/early 90s.

Surprisingly, this is just the 2nd mix on the site with a constant tempo. This time, 160bpm.

Enjoy.

As this mix is more 4-on-the-floor than the last mix, I've decided this will be the sequel to my Old Scool Rave Mix pasted back in March.

Dunfyboy's Old School Classics 2

Download from MediaFire.

OK, after a bit of a lay off, Dunfyboy's Mixes is back in action.

This is the 1st of 2 old school mixes I'm putting up this week. As this one is mostly breakbeats, it seems the natural sequel to my Old School Classics Mix that I posted way back in January, or maybe my Big Four-Oh Mix.

These tracks are mostly from 91/92, but a few exceptions. Starts of at 125bpm, ends at 152.

New Mixes Soon

As I predicted, the PS3 has eaten into my spare time. Performance wise, I'd say it's no better or worse than my 360 (hell of a lot quiter though). I prefer the PS3's interface and the pad just feels more natural as I've been playing on one Sony box or another for over a decade so the 360 may be getting eBayed soon.

Anyway, I've been looking out some more old school tunes and hope to get a couple of new mixes up here within the week. After that, who knows what the next mix will be, but it'll be a little more up to date whatever it is.

Dunfyboy's Old School Mix 2

As I mentioned last time, these tunes were all hits in the dance charts and the proper charts that the big labels spend so much time and money rigging. Top Of The Pops-tastic :)

The exceptions that prove the rule are Flute On and Nightbird. I don't think either artist has ever dented the top 40, but I forgot to include them in the last mix.

While I'm proving the inaccuracies of the mix's title, I wouldn't call the last 3 tracks old school as they came out in 96, but I couldn't be arsed making a "Not Quite Old School Mix". 36 out of 39 isn't bad. Besides, I can do what I want. I'm god around here.

Enjoy

02 - (I Wanna Give You) Devotion - Nomad

PS - Don't think I'm gonna get the next mix up before the PS3 arrives, so Dunfyboy's Mixes could be quiet for the next week or two. If you haven't already done so, remember to check the archives. There's bound to be something you'll like.

Dunfyboy's Old School Mix 1

Download from MediaFire.

It's been a while since I've done any old school mixes. I've got another 2 or 3 planned and hope to get them up in the next week or so. I'd better, as the 80Gb PS3 is on order and I plan to lose at least the next couple of weeks of my life to it (£330 for the console, GTA4, MGS 4 & an HDMI cable, if you're interested).

I was going to do a follow up to my Classic House mix, posted back in January (it seems so long ago) but, as the next mix will have a more commercial sound, I've included some "breakthrough" tracks here, too. That's why this mix has some 80s house, a bit of acid, some "cut n paste" tracks, along with stuff that broke though to the mainstream (Top Of The Pops even!).

So, no Classic House Vol 2, just plain ol' Old School Mix Vol 1.

Enjoy.
