What about Dee Patten's classic (from about 94 I think) 'Who's the Badman'
on Hard Hands that was re-released last year - wicked bassline ragga
chants. Also check the Sizzla tune that was remixed by the Bronx Dogs
can't remember the name of the tune 'rain showers' maybe. On the same remix
vibe check Dilinger's dope classic 'Cocaine inna Brain' given a dancefloor
mix by Groove Corporation. Also a remix that was given no dues (because of
the jazzanova treatment on the flip-side)but I've played with a good crowd
reaction is Tate's Place the dub/ragga mix.
Heard IG Culture down at Fabric, London mixing some great tunes inna
dub/reggae/house not house stylee, don't have any idea what they were.
Easy
