Soul Assassin 
Final confrontation
Knor 62
It's been a while since the ruffneck fans have had anything
new to listen to..but this E.P. will solve their problem.
All tracks on here sound exactly like a Ruffneck production :
fast breakbeat, phat sounds and ragga vocal bites.
The production is once again tops and nothing bad can
really be said about this release.
Will we see a new Ruffneck release soon???
 
G. Town
Punks and Bitches E.P.
Madness 02
This E.P. has a very strong hip hop influence the
title track which features "Dont' call me punk,bitch..
don't call me bitch, punk" vocal, I really dislike but the
other tracks are good. Be this type of G features rap
samples, good juno melodies and is the strongest track
for me. The A2 track is also good, on the slow tip this
time. If you like hardcore in a gangsta style, check this
E.P. out.
 
Man of Steel 
Pain
Rotterdam recs
68
The first track on the A side could have been a good
track for me but 2/3 into the track, the James Bond
theme kicks in and this has been done 10.000 times
before and it still sucks and ruins the track...The Attic
& Stylyy remix is pretty original, they're at least trying
something different. The best track by far is the title
track "Pain" sampling Hellraiser once more but it
real works well. The main melody is also good and
will stick in your head!
 
Dj Isaac & the Viper
The real shit
Baby Boom 032
   If you like the new style sound, Baby Boom 32 is defi-
nitely worth checking out!!! This E.P. is in my opinion
really good. 3tracks out of a 4 one playable. All show
nice production old skool noises and rap vocal samples.
The best track is the B1 which uses the famous "Rock 
the funky beat" sample really well. After the second
break a MASSIVE kick drum comes in and i can see
this becoming a big hit. The other tracks are just as
good apart from the B2 track which is a remix by BASS D
& KING MATTHEW. With 3 good tracks out of four you
can't really complain !!!
