Here's one you don't hear too often!
Kraftwerk. Les Mannequins (1976)

Sounds wayyyy better than the English version. . Showroom Dummies imo.

I picked it up recently at a record fair in Blackburn. Some twonk had written KRAFTWERK all over it in Sharpie but I did get it for a good price. Records NM.

Was all set for the #raveyardshift but I fell asleep 😴😴 so here's my offering (better late than never)
Black Riot. A day in the life(1988)

Had a mixtape with this on which got played to destruction back in the day.
Todd Terry was the master of samples!

This is pretty good IMO.
GW Edits. Gotta keep workin' it.

Has bits of Imagination, just an illusion with vocals by Miss Elliot.
Says 2025 on the clip but it first came out in 2022. . . My bad🙂
All 3 tracks on the 12" are great👍

#Raveyardshift tune!!
We went to Hard Times in the church at Huddersfield a few times round 1994. I think it was called club bel-air or something.
Anyhoo, I used to go nuts for this one, (still do!!)
Todd Terry. So Everybody (get off it).

This one's guaranteed to fill a dancefloor.
Dawn Penn. You don't love me (no no no) 1993.
Re-released recently. Was reading on discogs that she first wrote this in 1967.

November 4, 2025 at 10:24 AM
Another one of the recent reissues. .

Wayne Smith. Under Me Sleng Teng
Originally released 1985. It was a massive dancehall floor filler, been sampled quite a bit as well🙂

Here's a nice slow one for a sunny Sunday. Love these quality recordings. . Zero noise and there's a deep, rich sound.. .

This one's a Breakbeat version of "Dancefloor" by a taste of honey.
No idea of the year, there's no sleeve notes and nothing on discogs 🤷

Apparently it's by Madox (aka Riva Starr) real name Stefano Miele.
I like it. . . Got funk 🙂🕺

Sunday morning vibes 🎵🎶

Nothing beats the Joan Armatrading original, however, I'm a big fan of Izo Fitzroy and her version is well worth a listen 🎧

Izo Fitzroy. Love and affection (2023)

Some early progressive breakbeat 👇

Slacker. Psychout. 2000

Tryna work out where I've heard the vocal sample before 🤔🤔. I'm sure it's froma hip hop track.
#MusicSky #saltybeats #breaks🎧
July 31, 2025 at 5:07 PM
Long shot but does anyone know what the tune is playing thru this!!???
I've asked the DJ but unfortunately haven't heard back.
I know what the vocals are but not the music.
Shazam won't touch it😕

(Btw, it's a great mix. . .the whole thing is well worth a listen 🎧😊)
July 30, 2025 at 5:07 PM
This one hits the spot (for me anyway).
It's a Breakbeat remix of Kool Keith, Don't crush it.
Would go well in a house or techno set IMO.
