- Updated the site with news of the
forthcoming 808 State "So Hot" EP and "Prebuild" (LP/CD) album due out
on Rephlex later on this year. No release dates or information as yet,
but "So Hot" is actually the vocals that appear throughout their
version of New Order's "Blue Monday"!

no info as yet, as not enough time today, just thumbnails for the time
being (!):
- Remix Discography:
- Taste Of Paradise - Reach Out (features
Gerald on keyboards)
- Black Uhuru - Reggae Rock - the Antler
records release also appeared on 12" single, as well as CD.

sampled "Voodoo Ray". This was subsequently removed from the
reissue on Warp Records)
- Naughty Naughty Volume Ten - A-side
liberally samples "Voodoo Ray" - naughty, naughty! :)

DMC DJ-only CD compilation is the only place (that I know of) that

vinyl version.

of single/EP reviews of a lot of the Juice Box singles from various
Mixmag's/Muzik's lying round the place! :)

May from Muzik magazine in 1996 at the time of the "The Curse Of
