Drum & Bass 1992
1992 - 080703 Bally Beats (320kbps)

This was and still is my favorite Drum and Bass mix that I ever recorded. It's just so perfect with the tracks and the flow of the set and I'm my own worst critic. At this point in time 2002, Drum and Bass was in full gear with its 1992 / 1993 'ardkore revival so every single track in this set references proper 'Ardkore so the vibe is quite happy! Its also one of the first mixes that I recorded as 320kbps MP3.

I originally had it hosted on niceboots and linked on Drum and Bass forum. It's since been offline for years. I was also revisiting my hobby of building scale model amusment rides (its big in Germany!) at the time so I gave this mix out to several carnival rides. At one point I worked part time on a music ride and played the CD on it. The guidos at the shore clearly didn't get it. I remember when "Lip Service" was playing some Guidettes screamed "This sucks" during the long breakdown. This music is way too good for the Jersey Shore, hence why a DNB scene never happened in that town. Here is the original text from DnB Forum:

Heres my first new mix in a very long time. Since I haven't been buying much DnB records recently you might find these tunes to be a bit old but that doesn't make them any less awesome. Besides sometimes it takes years for certain DnB records to come out as well (Syntax - coming for you / Mason - this is what we came for). So far this year this particular mix has been given out to two Bertizon brand amusement rides, the Super Himalaya of Reithopher Shows and the Rock & Roll (matterhorn) of Casino Pier. Not only do I like the rides but its also a bit of free promotion to people who might not normaly ever go to a DnB night club (like the little kids clapping their hands along to the beats which was nice).

PS: Also unlike previous mixes by me the tempo in this one is actually quite fast (~+2).
