Thread: First ever tape you heard from back in the day?

Dougal @ Fusion II. still one of my fave sets.

My first tape was easygroove and Lisa from fantazia new year 91/92. Still listen to it now.

Mine was a mix tape i bought in a skating shop in Bournemouth back in 1991.It was titled 'junk hardcore' by dj junk.

.It got me well & truly hooked for life!

My first mixtape was this badboy way back in 1994....

Side 2

I can remember being so enamoured with this and the other load of Edge mixtapes I had grabbed. The speed and heaviness of the mid-section just totally blew me away. The fact that the only tunes I had heard were 'Music' and 'Mystic Stepper' made it feel that I had just discovered a whole new avenue of music that had never seen the light of a compilation.

Great times and a tape that I still hammer on me iPod today!
