This San Francisco House record cut right through the rest

I received this record initially in 1996 as a promo that came in the box from a music distributor in New York.

I never got to play it much initially but adored how cool and fresh it sounded, so it was parked in my collection knowing that a record of this stature would definitely get heavily rinsed at some stage.

Fast forward a few years and the percussive house sound of America’s west coast blew up on a grand worldwide scale and every DJ and their granny were playing records from labels & artists such as Siesta, Tango, Doubledown, Halo Varga, H-Foundation, Onionz etc…

For me personally, I loved this period, BUT being surrounded daily by music on a grand scale, this San Francisco house sound very quickly got over saturated and a little tiresome as loads of labels wanted a piece of the action and it was increasingly more difficult for it to remain original.

This record was signed, re-released (without this mix) and slowly started filtering into the clubs as this scene was starting to kick off.

I played this Acid Rock Mix to death – the fact that it wasn’t mass available always added a little bit to a records appeal.

For me, It cut right through the hoards of average music and had staying power to weather the passing storm and out the other end.

It was only in 2002 that Grayhound Records included this mix.

I honestly believe that I’ve played it every single year at some stage ever since and probably will continue to until records become extinct (so forever then)

28 years later and this record is still beyond cool.
