Current mood:  working
before there was a genre called Jungle/Drum & Bass, over 200 12" record releases ago and more years than we care to remember we, Ian 'Da Rebel' Bardouille, Mark 'Marc Mac' Clair, Gus Lawrence & Dennis 'Dego' McFarlane...the original members of 4hero setup Reinforced Records, the blueprint label for things to come...it was a labour of love and still is to this day so we're kind of proud of this little achievement.

we're going Digital in September on all the usual download stores for the 1st time so over the coming months you'll be able to get the previously only available on eBay hard to find gems including at some point what some people regard as the 1st drum & bass long player by yours truly...press release here.

Respect boys been buying your stuff for years so will pick up anything I missed way back.... Thanks for tunes over the years your an inspiration.... Gotta ask though - any chance of a live set in the UK someday? I missed out on a trip to the Montreaux Jazz festival years ago (gutted) and my mates still bang on about your set...

Had a quick look at the press release - it's a blessing to be able to get a hold of these tunes again!! I was only about 10 but I still remember tunes like 'cookin up yer brain' and 'mr kirks nightmare' on the radio.
Those tunes got me hooked!!!!

Has "Look Inside" actually been released on a full CD single release, like HMV has listed http://hmv. com/hmvweb/displayProductDetails. do?ctx=280;-1;-1;-1&sku=823995 ??

Or is it just on PROMO CD single only (http://www. discogs. com/release/1437045 )??

(...real shame a nice double-pack remixes vinyl didn't come for this single, as the instrumentals are well wanted!)

Anyway; thanks in advance,
Jim

as collectors of vinyl we're always striving to put the double packs and service what we'd want to buy....market forces are not on our side...get your friends to buy more vinyl and the ship wont sink.

this was a Digital and 12" only release, instrumentals may appear at a later date on a separate release, currently unscheduled.
