This post is a long time coming. For years an old friend of mine (hello Lisa!) has be begging and bugging me to make an entire mix of strictly vocal sing-along jungle tracks from back in the day especially for her. She'll be happy to find out that the day has finally come. The main reason I dragged my feet for so long is that I am a bit of a perfectionist, and knowing that a full mix of strictly vocal tunes poses some challenges as I don't wanna be that guy playing two vocals over top of each other. I'm also a big fan of my mixes and blends staying in key - something some jocks can't even comprehend.

So this would take some planning, or at least I thought. While I did have in mind a set of tracks I'd hope to play, I fired this mix off in one shot and it came out nicely. Here's to hoping Lisa and all of you get lots of enjoyment from this one.

My first ever mix tape. No, it never had a proper title so I called it what it said on the master tape - the date it was recorded. Yes, the mixing and track selection maybe leave something to be desired but it's really not that bad for a 17 year old who just got his first pair of decks two months prior. Actually, I think I had already played out @ Club Nile (lol) by this point - I took up DJing pretty fast. Mostly because I watched other DJ's I very quickly knew what I was doing technically. However, this mix shows I had a while to go before I understood how to program a set and especially that I was still feeling my way around what records to buy and play. Nonetheless, it's a fun trip down memory lane for me. While hesitant to post such an amateur effort, a few friends have asked for copies over the years so it's nice to have it digitalized...

No full track list as I sold a lot of these years ago and have no clue what they are, but I can say you'll enjoy the likes of Goldie, Remarc, 4 Hero, DJ SS, Ellis D, Leviticus, Origin Unknown, Bizzy B, and some cheeky Toni Tony Tone remix, among others. Enjoy.
