Growing up as a teenager in the 90's, I was huge follower of the D & B scene. Starting off with the show on Radio 1 hosted by MC Navigator, 1 in the Jungle. While I gravitated to the stuff LTJ Bukem put out on good looking records, the tech step sound of the mid to late 90's rally hot the spot! Dark, melodic, spacey, and serious. It all sounded so futuristic.
I was at 6th form college, had started going to clubs, and was lucky enough to see the likes of Doc Scott, Dillinja and Adam F at venues such as Fabric and the End, and more locally in Oxford, at The Coven, Po Na Na’s and the Zodiac.
So I've put together this mix of my favourite 90’s tech step tracks that encapsulated that era
These still sound absolutely amazing now, and . The mixes are a little loose but it’s good enough for me and for playing in the car / on my runs. A bit of a nostalgia trip. Enjoy!
