Joshua Ryan – May Mix

joshuaryan Joshua Ryan   May Mix

In 1999 techno/trance producer Joshua Ryan created ‘Pistolwhip’ a monster of a track that quickly became an underground classic getting plays in dark, dank warehouses around the globe. But ‘Pistolwhip’ didn’t stay underground for long. In 2001 the track was re-released on NuLife Recordings & grabbed the 29th spot on the UK pop charts it’s first week.

Since then Joshua has stayed busy releasing a slew of his own works & producing many others. I was happy to discover that Joshua is still actively producing, mostly under the handle ‘The Brothers‘ with his sibling Eric. Most recently they’ve produced !!!’s ‘Myth Takes’, Professor Murder and Radio 4.

Aside from being a production virtuoso he’s a cracker jack DJ as well and was kind enough to bestow upon us his latest mix filled with his own personal remixes & edits of some of todays best songs. Enjoy.

Actual Rave.

rave Actual Rave.

Everyone’s talking new rave this & new rave that. Can’t help but be reminded of old rave, or as I like to call it actual rave. I partook in my fair share of parties & even had a short term career in the field of street pharmacy, which ended up with a brief stay in the big house. I have since reformed my ways, got rid of anything I owned that glowed in the daylight & stayed as far away from dark, damp warehouses as possible. However I still kept all my old vinyl, & every now & then I take a trip (ha, trip) down ‘what I can remember’ lane. Here’s a few cuts that were in every dj’s arsenal back in the day.

(these are vinyl rips, the needles are pristine, but some of the vinyl isn’t. If you hear some cracks & pops. My bad.)

Joshua Ryan – Pistolwhip (a.k.a Fragrant #11) (Download)
Josh doesn’t shy away from laser noises in this cut. The track is long, but the break is the shit.

Bassdropper – Lovin’ You (Land of Oz #9) (Download)
Appropriate name for an artist who does just that all over this track. Drops bass.

Prezioso – Raise Your Power (TEC T) (Download)
Remember the Mortal Kombat soundtrack? This shoulda been on there.

As with most old dance records you have a few option as to where you can get them, old collectors, dig through crates for hours or spend a little dough on shipping & get them shipped to you from the source of dance music; Europe. Best sites to obtain records like this: HTFR, Juno, Satellite, Humpty & Dance Records. If those links fail you hit up ebay.

So, in your opinions which is a better musical movement, old rave or new rave, or no rave? Let’s discuss.
