Anytime a dance track gets remixed over 10 times (and each released on 12"), you know it's an anthem. 1996's "Funk Phenomenon" is one of those tracks, one of the most successful blends of house and hip-hop sample (Redman)... it was...   click for more

Up from obscurity and straight to your digital crate comes B.O.S.E. in all its electro-bass glory. Goddamn this shit just blew my mind. First off - the cover is the sickness, with bad 80's CG robots, gradient fonts, keyboards and UFOs. Secondly...   click for more
