10 track mix<<<
1. King Heroin - James Chance & the Contortions
Just for Cardboard Adolescent, a track about the downfalls of heroin. Twisted James Brown cover version.
2. B-I-D Spells Bid - the Monochrome Set
This band were like a big existential joke, at our expense.
3. The Pot Head Pixies - Gong
Certainly my favourite progressive-psych band of the Canterbury scene... Has anybody got a life I can borrow?
4. Alkaline Loaf in the Area - Essential Logic
Lora Logic was the saxophonist in X-Ray Spex. She left and formed her own band, who were better.
5. Bastardo - Charlotte Hatherley
Words fail me, so here's a football
6. I Meant to Kill Him - Henry's Phonograph
My peeps. They put out one mini album in 4 years and I don't even have to pretend to enjoy their music.
7. Play To Win - Heaven 17
Formed by ex-members of Human League, from debut landmark
Penthouse and Pavement. Say no to yuppies!
8. Pack the Pipe - the Pharcyde
Don't smoke crack either, just listen to this psychedelic hip hop classic.
9. Uno Fi Move - Shabba Ranks
So what is the difference between ragga and dancehall? Ragga is drum machines, guns and sex. The toasting style was massively influential on hip hop.
10. Joyride - Slew Dem
East London's sons of the Caribbean still going strong with Jammer's patented style of skanked-out 2-step.
