DJ Overdose - Best Of Hardcore Breaks 2016 - January 2017
As promised this month celebrates the Hardcore Breaks and Jungle Techno releases of 2016. This mix isn't to say I don't like the rest of the releases, more that these ones stood out to me. This year has brought lots of quality tracks from all the big names, as well as a few sneaky ones from lesser known producers. If I had to pick an overall favourite for the year it would probably be, DJ RAVE IN PEACE - GIVE YOURSELF. Despite being a fan of the "Dark side" this track stirred the hardcore in me. It's not a 'happy' track, very ravey but its got a massive sound. Like the real hardcore tracks I used to love and mix. One of note is the massive Sharkey remix of "Vampire (Sy & Temptation?) - Teknostorm".
Anyway, before I get lost in the nostalgia...
Another track I feel needs a mention is Wolfman by Sidestalker. This comes from a massive EP released near Halloween. So well produced and captures the vibe of break beat hardcore.
Dave Nexus, Pursuit, CRIP, Impact Beat, Sparki Dee, Gareth Monks and Nicky Allen. Hats off to you all for your work this year.
Enough rambling...

01 - Let It Hit Em
02 - DJ Red Alert & Pepsi - Don Gorgon Sound (Sparki Dee Remix)

So this mix officially starts off the 2017 releases. There were loads of tracks released this month as is usual for the time of year. All those producers poking away at their computers and gadgets in studios all nice and warm... My selections this month are of the usual breakbeat/jungle theme. Not as dark as things have been, and to cheer up all those happy heads in the winter months I decided to do a little half hour happy set:) Just goes to show the mix of tracks being made these days as well as the quality.
Tunes to note are a couple from Dave Nexus, who always has a very high standard of releases. As well as Gamma909 who has a few tracks on offer and Cocoina who also has set a very high bar in terms of jungle mania.

DJ Overdose - Hardcore Breaks - March 2017 (+ Bonus)
Late again with these releases! Been a hectic month for me in one way or another. While I have had the mixes done, the upload and tracklist were put aside. Some great releases this month though, with a little raid from Strange Rollers soundcloud page to get a fair chunk of the tracks this month. Both in the main mix and the bonus (Another bonus, am I mad?!). Usual suspects Paul Cronin, Impact Beat and C.R.I.P. featuring their using high quality works. Nice remix form a Jimmy J track, Ool Lortnoc (Control Loo backwards), which was the B side to Take Me Away on Remix Records, many moons ago. Good to see producers are not afraid to revisit quality tracks and make a mark on them. Remix of "Papa New Guinea" another example on the bonus mix.
Shouts to them in Canada, them in Tottenham and them that make the music happen:)
Tracklist:
01 - Let It Hit Em
02 - Jimmy J & Cru L T - Ool Lortnoc (Insane & Mind Remix)

DJ Overdose - Hardcore Breaks - April 2017
Rather than do a separate bonus mix this month (its all down to having a lot of tracks to mix from, some varying in style) I've tried to inconspicuously stitch a couple of mixes together. Upshot is a 2 hour + mix, crossing different BPM's. Many tracks from Cronin, and other usual producers hitting up the scene. A few anthem remixes, which really are a pleasure to mix. Track "Nobody does it better" special dedication to DJ Gunnee, as he has a super squidgy soft spot for the original. :)
Shouts to Ricky Bwoy and doris, Gunnee and doris, Me and doris, Dream Crew, Strictly NuSkool Crew (glowkid), NuRave Radio Crew, and all the other Crew doing the work to make the tracks, promote the events and climb the tower blocks "helping pigeons".

02 - Rhythm 4 Reason - Feels Good
03 - Redshift - Ruffer
04 - Richard Champion - Ruff Beatz

DJ Overdose - Technological Junglisticness - May 2017
This mix caused me some grief this month! It was originally meant to be a 100% pure vinyl mix, but after repeated fails with the Metronome track I ended up trying to re-edit it on my PC. This also went sideways so I went back to vinyl. In the end we have a half and half mix of vinyl and MP3. I think in part the problems are caused by some bad encodes of some tracks in my digital archive and some jungle records I have with random levels of produciton quality... That's my excuse anyway.
Shouts to the 1993 Jungle Techno fans. Bloggers, reviewers, producers, mixers and radio pirates. Keep on rolling and all that.
Tracklist:
01 - Kemet Crew - The Box Reopens
02 - International Rude Boys - Drum Program
03 - Metronome - Warning
04 - Ed Rush - Bludclart Artattack
05 - Harmony And X-Stream - Treats
06 - Noise Factory - Breakage 4
07 - Noise Factory - Straight From The Bedroom
08 - Kemet Crew - Hold On
09 - International Rude Boys - The Paragone
10 - Oaysis - The Jungle
11 - Secret Squirel - Zombie Assassin
12 - Twisted
13 - Enity - The First Instalment
14 - Parallell - Eeze the Pressure
15 - Human Being - The Box Opens

DJ Overdose - Hardcore Breaks - June 2017
Back to the nu-skool breaks this month. Pretty hot days we have had as well so good to be outside and not indoors mixing! That said had a lot of tracks to play, so this mix is the usual mix of various speeds/genres.
Some mental tracks released of late, Jedi Knight from Paul Cronin to name one. What a banger! I like his style as he doesn't seem to get hung up the production too much, just does it how he likes and he clearly likes it hardcore! A nice Super Sharp Shooter remake as well from Phibes. The mix ends with a full on hyped up remake of Prodigy classic, Charley.
Shouts to all of the producers and a special Birthday shout to Gunnee this month (June). Shout to Ricky (He didn't get shot) and Ginny. Shout to my "time capsule" for a surprisingly seemless recovery from a failed HDD in my Macbook. Shout to Mad Keeran, back in the UK for summer. Respect to Nu-Rave radio, Only Oldskool Radio, Dream FM massive, Monita, Jedi, Gl0WKiD and Ricky the DPD delivery guy.

04 - Indigo Virus - Jaded

DJ Overdose - Happy Hardcore - July 2017
Had a bit of a boozy afternoon the other weekend and recorded this little mix. Load of happy tracks from thr mid 90's, really quite a breeze to mix. Only issue was that in my "excitiment" I completely failed to notice I had damaged one of the cables from on of my 1210's, meaning one turntable was effectively missing a channel.
Playing it all so loud, and being a little intoxicated meant it was30 mins into the mix before I noticed. Then, being the pro, I got out the soldering iron mid-mix no less to repair the cable. carried on like a trooper...
Anyway so if you can put up with the first half hour being "mono" (I did some work in Audacity to try and make it sound a little better), it's not a bad mix for the happy heads from then on.
Shouts to everyone that understands!

DJ Overdose - Missing Mixes
Hi everyone,
Here are the missing three months mixes. I was way to busy with other things to get this done and uploaded. Due to the time constraints, tracklists are not included as I cannot be arsed! Releases have been good building up to Christmas, but a bit of a slow down recently. No doubt other people besides me are busy...
October is a slower BPM mix, November is a bit more 93 style and the December mix is tracks pulled from the distant vaults. Some Nu Skool, but well over 5 years old in the most part.
December:
