The Man From Formation – Darken You With My Presence E.P.

Two killer tunes from this four track E.P on the excellent Formation sub-label F Project

No surprises who “The Man From Formation” is: DJ SS, here using yet another pseudonym.

Dark…

Darker…

I love the horror movies samples on this one, just wish I could work out where it was sampled from

Slayer Shoes!

How could I resist these?

Saw them while I was in Japan

Vans slayer owens hi

and had to resist the ridiculously high prices there. Luckily they were readily available on my return and a pair were bought.

These ones, not so good…

Manowar interview – cringe factor: off the charts

Oh god, I can’t stand Manowar.

They have made a couple of amazing tunes but really they are the worst band ever in my books.

I don’t think I’ve cringed so much watching an interview in years. Remember that these guys must be nearing or in their 40s at this time…

Real Life – Send Me An Angel

I don’t know anything about these guys, except that this tune is a killer.

Big cameo by Chewbacca in this one

De Ryus – Grass Ain’t Greener (MJ Cole Remix)

De Ryus, from what I can remember where a Swedish or Danish boy band (why is there nothing on Wikipedia about them?). The original track was fairly uninspiring when I heard it but MJ Cole’s remix was a stunner. Back in 1999 he could really do no wrong and there was a new classic out from him every week, it seemed. Anyway, this is a lesser known one, although still a bit tune. Enjoy…

Edit: turns out that I was totally wrong. De Ryus is a British singer/songwriter. I have no idea why I thought it was a boy band. It’s possible I was thinking of BBMak who got the Artful Dodger remix treatment at around the same time, but they’re English!

Note: this always makes me giggle as it sounds like it’s saying “ah, ah boobies”.

Yeah, yeah, I’ll grow up one day
