PASTRAMI MAN - PASTRAMI MACHINE (FREESTYLE LTD) FST 005 (1994)





Ah the Idjut Boys!! As this blog develops you will no doubt see a lot from this name. They pretty much got me re-discovering house music again in the mid 90’s, when drum’n’bass, techno and (tr)hip hop ruled. Since then they have stuck to what they love and have a devastating catalogue.

This one is more on the edit tip and comes from a few years back on the short lived Freestyle label. 2 tracks – both killer – touched up for the dance floor.

Although the edit of Hamilton Bohannon's 1979 disco tune ‘The Groove Machine’ is ace, it’s all about the flipside here, where Tina Turner’s raw take on the Led Zep tune, gets stretched out. I played this to death when it came out and now it’s re-discovered, will again.

A big part of this blog is about rediscovering my vinyl collection. I only DJ with CD’s now which are burnt from MP3’s, so I have a massive amount of lost classics in the old format that need dug out.

Watch out…….
