catchall Breakbeat Garage / Dark 4x4 thread

[Littlefoot]

in this thread we share links, opinions and music regarding the early 2000s brief period of Breakbeat Garage / Dark 4x4

to be fair most of this sounds a bit soft and under produced by todays standards, but I always drop some of these tunes in sets and people go OFF

Some youtube clips:

Jammin - Distraction, is a wicked intro tune dropped this many a time in the last month


what about: S and Z ? (sovreign and zed bias) .. to me that stuff is pure Dubstep before it had a name but fits in with this stuff too

[bandshell]

Harry Lime - Spanker (4 x 4 Mix)

[Demos]

beat is evil.

[Littlefoot]

is there any new Narrows 4x4? His dubstep stuff sucked!

the J3di stuff is ok, pretty plain in most respects, doesnt have that spark of the earlier stuff, would pick up an ep though I rekon

If anyone could identify who the 'Badboy' behind this tune is I'd be grateful. Been trying to ID it for ages. The other mix of this is great too.

Edit: Was on Big Apple records if that helps...

[concept_]

DJ South Central - Wicked Sound (UKG)
Sovereign -Carmen
Bogeyman - Disturbed
Exemen - Storm
The 9 - Speechless
Groove Chronicles - Blakjack
Ambidextrous bits
Daluq - Superfine (more brokenbeat but big tune)
Pussy Trak - hype remix
DJ Abstract - Took My Love Away

...these are all good tracks from Breakbeat days

[Pada]

A couple of weeks back Hatcha played some of this stuff on his Kiss FM show, I don't really know about it but fuck me it's good.
