DJ Ratty - Mythology 1992

Way before Robbie D turned into a crack ridden shouter he actually added something to a set, this is demonstrated in this wicked DJ Ratty mix. 

Loads of classic trade mark cuts and quick mixes from the oily crossfader veteran

Lost Tapes, the type of tape you find at the bottom of a box, under a pile of clothes in a wardrobe or a re recording lost in time… until now

This week I’ll be attempting to rediscover some lost tapes from the vaults of ‘92 - ‘94 with some rare audio footage from the UK rave scene.

I’ll start with this Rat Pack, Ellis D and Kev Bird tape - found in a box of stuff that I should have unpacked a year ago. I really need to listen to it properly to try and figure out where the recording originally came from, I do however remember this was a firm favourite in the School playground and did the rounds for some time - my copy must have been a 5th or 6th generation duplicate!
