Drop Acid - private mixtape

Also found in the Dalston Oxfam Shop tape bin some time back but I didn't record till now because unfortunately one side of the cassette is mono, it only works in one channel. But I went back to it recently and realized I really am feeling this sound right now so I posted the one side that sounds ok.

This is a private mixtape done by someone probably very late 80's maybe early 90's and there's no tracklisting but it's someone in the comments put the following tracklisting (thanks).



Good life (one of the mixes on the US 12") - inner city
work it to the bone - LNR
----?----
in the name of love - swan lake (champion) 
pump up london - mr lee
Acid Man - Jolly Roger 
Ride the Rhythm - This Ain't Chicago
---?---
can u party - royal house (champion)
---?---
keep me hangin on - kim wilde (?)
Illusion - R-Tyme

But the most bangin of all is the Jolly Roger - Acid Man track.  I can't believe after all this time that it's not even available on the US itunes store.

Listen to the whole thing as it gets much better about 3/4 way through. This obviously done by the same people who did this earlier Acieed cassette I posted. If anyone has any info on who did these, I'd love to know.


Side ? - Drop Acid mix

Also, I'm into ghetto tech right now and have been djing this lately. Here it is as requested by various friends.

A good bit of the tracklisting is in the comments below.

Great post, nice blog. I still love all that old Todd Terry stuff like Royal House, Black Riot etc. and play it whenever I can get away with at DJ gigs.

This is great stuff - I love a bit of acid! The tune at 19.00 is Acid Man by Jolly Roger, and the next track, at 23.10, is Ride the Rhythm (Acid not Placid Mix) by This Ain't Chicago - I over posted it at Dilated Choonz a while ago.
