***SHIPS END OF APRIL***

Cup-A-Cha

In 1995-96 the tracks were flowing out of the studio and Ant Miles would often sketch out beats while waiting for Andy C to return. Cup-A-Cha literally fell out of the computer one day and Andy felt it needed to go out as was, especially with the emotion laden piano trills towards the end; reminiscent of the sound of Foul Play who Ant adored.  This track actually got Moving Shadow’s attention and Ant was invited over to release various tracks as ‘Higher Sense’ as a result of the vibe of this tune.

 

The Futurist (Ant Miles Remix)

Originally the title track on Red One’s debut Liftin Spirit release in 1994, ‘The Futurist’ was indeed a sound and rhythm ahead of its time which inspired Ant Miles to load up the track for a special remix featured here. This went on to be backed with a remix of ‘Alive ’N’ Kickin’ that Andy C and Ant created as ‘Origin Unknown’. This mix captured the sound and vibe of The AWOL raves that are cherished greatly by all of D&B/Jungle heads of the time.

 

Soon Come

A collaboration between Ant and Andy C that went on to inspire yet another alias for them as ‘Concept 2’ on Liftin Spirit. Ram was often swamped with releases for months to come, so this found its way to the sister label. ‘Concept 2’ smashed it out the park in later years with tracks such as ‘Cause and Effect’. A Desired State production in full effect.

 

Bad Influence

Originally a B side for Stakka & K-Tee on Liftin Spirit, being in a similar vein to ’The Futurist’. This track also became an anthem at The Awol nights back in the day with its heads down, haunting, roller vibes.
