Paul Cronin-Space And Time EP-San Francisco Nights



SPACE AND TIME E.P by PAUL CRONIN

Paul Cronin is back with a mighty boom for a fresh new EP featuring 5 prime cuts of his 1992 hardcore inspired sound and we're loving it!!!! The golden rave era style sounds commence with the excellent title track with Nebula II style pads while my personal favourite 'Raver Come Alive' kicks off with a cool 8 bit video game style intro before exploding into some 160BPM techno pads and crunching amen breaks awesomeness!!!! 'My Chant' is the most experimental tune utilising the Monk chants as per Enigma's 'Sadness Pt 1' but in a tearout amen break fashion. 'Expanded' is signature Paul Cronin raveyness at 150BPM and 'C'Mon Now' takes the tempo down for a late 91/early 92 style rave techno banger. Quality sounds all round and if you love your NuSkool then you don't want to sleep on this!!!!

Follow the soundcloud links to buy the tracks, exclusive to trackitdown.net for the next 3 weeks then available from all good download stores, please support our artists who give away loads of free music week after week, your support is what helps the scene to grow, if nothing else, we humbly request anyone reading this post can share and tweet it to their friends and followers....

Fringe - Stepping Out EP [Hi Headz 012]



Fringe - Stepping Out EP [Hi Headz 012] by Hi Headz

Since having the pleasure of being introduced to Fringe, I have been a huge fan of his sounds and this EP is an absolute must, its free to download and worthy of spending your money on without a doubt. 'No More' is classic Foul Play circa 93 style Jungle, full of atmosphere while 'You Took My Love' takes a well known vocal and wraps it around a 93 darkside beast that Ratty & Tango would have smashed back in the day, the sound is perfect, a faithful reinterpretation of that much loved mid 90s sound and all the fresher for it, big ups to Hi Headz and Fringe for this awesome release!!!

nu-rave,com podcast-Tariq Ziyad

First of all, I would like to thank Glowkid for doing a great job keeping this blog alive with regular posts on all things NuSkool. I haven't posted on here in ages, in fact I've been away from doing radio and podcasting for a staggering 6 weeks!!! So to kick things off, I've gone and done a podcast for http://www.nu-rave.com/'s new podcast page http://www.house-mixes.com/profile/nu-rave-radio, its a bit of a darkside indulgence starting off with Nicknutz' 'Darkside' on the excellent Hi Headz imprint, get it here:

Nickynutz - Darkside [Hi Headz 010] by Hi Headz I have pitched it up quite a bit, followed up with a forthcoming track on http://36hertz.com/ Jem One 'Drop This', a beast of a 140 tune with 93 amen tearout vibes, again pitched up to 145BPM, I had a bit of a margin to play with as the last tune is at 162BPM but we'll get to that, next up is this old skool classic for those who know No where by dj junk

From there I played Sound Shifter's phenomenally good 150BPM roller 'One Nation' soon to be made free for download from his new label https://www.facebook.com/ReShiftedRecordsBcn and then we had another hidden old skool gem Junk04 by dj junk

That was followed by the mysterious DJ Trace - Definition of Living (Amen Remake), can't tell you much about that really asides from the fact that its a sick re rub!!!!! To finish off, a great forthcoming tune on http://www.kode5recordings.com/ by Billy No Mates BILLY NO MATES - CROWD BURST (FORTHCOMING ON KODE 5 RECORDINGS) by KODE 5 RECORDINGS™

And this, an absolute favourite of mine right now

FRINGE - ITS A HIGH (FORTHCOMING ON KODE 5 RECORDINGS) by KODE 5 RECORDINGS™

A bit of footwork action on a 92 classic Acen - Close Your Eyes (The Renegades Mix) FREE DL by Dynamix Records, LLC

And to wrap up proceedings, this beast of a NuSkool Darkside tune by Abyss

DJ ABYSS -GIVE ME A BREAK (OUT NOW) KODE015 by KODE 5 RECORDINGS™

So, hope you enjoy the podcast, go and grab the free tunes from soundcloud and buy the rest, also check out http://www.nu-rave.com/ for the freshest upfront underground sounds from NuSkool to 140 to DnB, House and everything inbetween, our roster is growing week by week, loads of great DJs, loads of great shows, see you in the chat!!!!
