Juno Reactor – Conga Fury

Juno Reactor
Conga Fury
1996 Blue Room Released

Let’s keep the Goa thing going… Ben Watkins aka Juno Reactor has worked with a multitude of artists including Steve Stevens (Billy Idol), Budgie (The Creatures/Siouxsie and the Banshees), Eduardo Niebla & Traci Lords to name a few. On Conga Fury he teams up with the South African percussion act Amampondo. The result… a fast paced tribal masterpiece with killer percussion. Add on a couple tremendous remixes of tracks from the brilliant Beyond the Infinite and you got yourself a righteous single. Remember that Liu Kang VS Jade Battle?

1. Conga Fury
2. Magnetic (Remixed By Robert Leiner)
3. Feel The Universe (Remixed By Koxbox + Ian Ion)

Eat Static – Epsylon EP

Eat Static
Epsylon EP
1995 Mammoth / Planet Dog

Spewing from the Somerset space rock band Ozric Tentacles, the duo of Merv Pepler & Joie Hinton were my first introduction to the Planet Dog label. Since then I've always thought they were the apex of Sci-Fi Goa Trance and still spin Implant on a monthly basis in the home studio. Taking their name came from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (so cool), they span many forms of dance music & showcase great energy & creativity. They also have an abundance of side projects and exclusive mixes out there for our pleasure. These days Pepler continues the Eat Static brand as a solo project after Hinton left in 2008. This US Mammoth release contains the Lost In Time single from 1993 which is brilliant.
