Original released on Underdog Recordings in 1993
The second ever release by Mad Dog and the third release for Vinyl Fanatiks. Originally released in
1993 on Bournemouth based Underdog Recordings, this record brings Dave ‘The Rave Doctor’
Wallace and Shaun ‘Aurora’ O’Hara back together again. Recorded at 116 Avon Road, Bournemouth
AKA The House Of Rave.
This record is the last of the Jungle Techno tunes they made together. They dropped the 4/4 bass
drum for their next release together (Fugitive – forthcoming on Vinyl Fanatiks in 2019). As Shaun
reminisces – “I don’t have much memory of this recording session but I do remember being heavily
influenced by the breakbeat patterns and use of reverb that was coming out of the ‘dark’ scene that
was being led by people like DJ Trace”.
Olly Underdog recalls – “All the early Underdog tunes got hammered on the pirates and made it onto
tape packs of the day which is pretty impressive, we never posted any promos out because we didn’t
know any of the DJ’s, so they must have bought them, although I think Mo’s Music Machine, who
distributed the first 2 Underdog releases, did allow for 10 records to be paid for for promo use”
Vinyl Fanatiks brings you two more highly sought after, classic UK Jungle tunes that are fetching high
prices on Discogs. Remastered for 2019 and cut by Simon at The Exchange. Simon use to cut all the
classic jungle tracks from the 90’s and he still has the same cutting equipment in his studio which
helps create a highly authentic end product.
This will never be available digitally!!!
Released in a black paper inner sleeve inside a Vinyl Fanatiks housebag. The record is pressed on
heavyweight 180 gram vinyl.
