Review: A rare slice of authentic breakbeat hardcore to be threshed among many chaffs, DJ Rap & Aston's premier collab from 1993 hears a perfect remaster and reissue via Suburban Base, who initially released this gemstone just two years into their publishing career. A powerful rave rouser which commands an almost equally reassuring quality, the leader is Freestylers' remix of 'Vertigo', which irons out the OG tune with a breathaking, synth pipe organ-powered view out and above the squat party; the track soothes the collective listener with repetitious "baby, we're fine" affirmations, providing august contrast to the much nimbler, spryer 1993 version, which humours us rather than quashes us: "show me... show me... show me how you laugh!" Then, of course, Rap & Aston prove how far they've come with a wild UK hardcore version of an unprecedentedly fierce, post-Kaybug weight.

Review: Suburban Base Records opens the archives with a heavyweight double release from DJ Rap & Aston, spotlighting some key moments in drum & bass history. 'More Time - Boomshaka Dubplate Versions' brings the original 1993 track back into focus, complete with unreleased dubplate and demo cuts that have taken on near-mythical status among jungle enthusiasts. These versions don't just resurrect the past; they bottle that raw, frenetic 90s energy and let it loose once more. There's something visceral about these tracksian unfiltered sound that defined a scene, now repressed for those who live and breathe the genre's legacy.
