Energy &#038; DNA &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/release\/246252\">The Bastard<\/a> (Remix Records)<\/p>\n<p>This is the first mix that I did in the Rampage Turbo series of freeform hardcore mixes. Sadly, I have been unable to find the original minidisc, so this is only in 128 kbps, which is certainly adequate, although not quite as good as I would prefer. <\/p>\n<p>A few notes:<\/p>\n<p>* The Moonrise tune is an old M-Zone classic and is, in my opinion, probably the finest tune to be released on EDM. It is also one of only two non-UK releases on this mix. The other one is the Tilzs &#038; Plastic Portal tune, which was released on their own label in their hometown of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Although they only managed four releases before going under, they put out at least a couple of really good tunes (for instance, I used &#8216;Infected&#8217; by Sunrize on Rampage Turbo 4).<\/p>\n<p>* Trance Masters was a collaboration between Billy Bunter, Rob Vanden, and M-Zone. Incidentally, the Rob Vanden tune featured on this mix is relatively obscure, certainly in comparison to the big anthems released on GBT (like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/release\/148692\">Body Slam<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/release\/34999\">Better Day<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/release\/148635\">Droppin&#8217; Bombs<\/a>) but it bangs like a mutha and even ten years later I still think it is one of the finest ever trancecore releases.<\/p>\n<p>* &#8216;I Don&#8217;t Care&#8217; was at one point super-rare and cost over \u00a340 second-hand! Then it was re-released on Tidy Trax and its second-hand value fell through the floor. Still a killer tune.<\/p>\n<p>* &#8216;The Bastard&#8217; still fucking rules. That is all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pearsall presents Rampage Turbo 1 right-click, save as to download Mixed in Edinburgh, March 2002 (60:40, 55.75 MB, 128 KBPS MP3) Cue file Style: freeform hardcore<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[6,36],"class_list":["post-67","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-mixes","tag-freeform-hardcore","tag-rampage-turbo"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=67"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6159,"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67\/revisions\/6159"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=67"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=67"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sonicrampage.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=67"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
