I have got bags of old vinyl i'm playing through (off my mate i mentioned from those Frenzy nights). He has loads of old vinyl but mainly 93/94 onwards... Already found some gems though. I stumbled across the below & am assuming you're connected to it... ??

If at some point you want to put your tune out, then that's no problem, although if you plan on selling it (Via digital), then I'd say use your own mixdown/mastering as we have to pay out for the mastering our end, so would be a bit rude if someone then used that file to profit from.
Perhaps stamp every entry with a voiceover mentioning it's part of the 2017 compo that you set up.

i love how Ray always gets confused.
He asked Pilgrim about midlands MC's and Pilgrim started talking about baseman and Lenni, Ray interupted saying big up Lennie D - original DJ.
He also did it with Slipmatt when Slipmatt was talking about Dance 88/89 at Sankys in Ibiza and Ray Keith got it confussed with another Dance 89 from back in the day.

Quick question: do we still own copyright to our songs, in case we want to fork the ones we made ourselves and put them into our own EPs at a later date?

Last year Symmetry festival was pretty good for oldskool but thats not on this year I think it may be back on next year. Sunday was superb for oldskool on the Clockwork stage and I was lucky to play with my partner Louise +1 on there.
Freekuency at the beginning of the year in Portugal the last 2 years has been great too a fair bit of oldskool with all sorts of other techno/dnb will deffinately go to that next year.
Glastonbury has its fair share of oldskool in Shanri-La and the Common. Really enjoyed playing on Bloc 9/Brainwash in 2015 and again Brainwash in 2016 ... Brainwash was a micro venue for about 100 people in Shangri-la but they seemed to have done away with the micro venues this year. It was great we had Friday night Techno and Saturday Oldskool/Drum and Bass the sets were recorded and are up on mixcloud

Boomtown seems like the big one coming up there is bound to be lots of oldskool there.

I am pretty sure I can remember that charting and like they said in the interview when the majors realised the content of the song they where playing versions where it just dropped out on key words like "Rizla","spliff" and "ganja"
I can remember their follow up ep "changing styles" .. didnt have quite the same impact

Yeah I have been checking them out love stuff like this. I was suprised to see a Mark Ryder one on there as he rarely seemed to do anything in the line of interviews! The Ratpack one was funny too as the camera seemed to pick up a lot of banter at the beginning that I dont think was intended for the broadcast then someone fiddled with the camera and the real stream seemed to kick in !
A few of us used to play as part of Let the bass kick crew on Originuk.net on Friday mornings before Rays show at 1pm and we used to love a bit of banter with him a genuinely nice guy. The 1st time I met him I was asking really nerdy questions about the unreleased version of midnight and he said on the mic "this guy knows more about me than I do" ... will be keeping tabs on this show for sure .. very similar to the Dugs RCFF interviews which I have loved listening to

PS - I did just notice that a bunch of last minute samples have not gone into the actual folder within the zip - but they still can be used.
There should be around 80 samples in total in the zip

+1 for L.S.D. Jesus on Es. Watching that round a mate's house in a darkened room on shrooms and my taste in music changed instantly.

Went to the Southport Weekender at Finsbury Park last month. There was a bit of old school there and I caught some of Bukem's set, which was decent. I mainly went to see Juan Atkins though and spent most of the time in the Detroit Techno arena.
The big one was Glastonbury, had a great time there and was one of the best ones I've been to as well. I didn't only go for the old school but saw a fair bit, Mark XTC, Altern8, Goldie's 92-94 rave set at Arcadia (the big fire breathing metallic spider) which was nuts. One of the best things I saw was Billy Bunter's acid house set at 4am on Bez's stage, absolutely loved that. Also a special mention to Hacienda Classical, I wasn't sure if I'd like it as I thought it might be a bit gimmicky, but it worked surprisingly well and went down a storm.

The Production Compo July 2017.
Rules :
1 - Must use at least 4 samples from the sample pack.
(You can also use any other samples / vsts / hardware at your disposal).
2 - Tunes must be in the "old skool" style - 91-94 (Old Skool Hardcore / Bleep / Techno / Jungle).
3 - Tunes must be under 6.5 mins (Or thereabouts).
4 - Finished tunes must be returned back to me by the end of August 2017 via PM.
5 - Top 3 "Winning" tracks will be featured on forthcoming Paranoid releases.
(Plus anymore myself or Gaffer really like).
Please don't enter if you do not wish your track to possibly be featured on a forthcoming "Free" Paranoid release.
Tunes must not be uploaded anywhere else for people to hear.
The compo tracks will all be uploaded in a pack once ready & uploaded labelled up as Track1, Track2 etc.
This way, no one knows who did what track, so voting is fairer.
Voting will be by regular or known members only.
Again, this keeps things fairer, to stop people re-registering under new names & voting for themselves.
Hope you have fun with the samples & look forward to hearing the tunes
** Ask for the sample pack if you're happy with the above & I will PM it over **
