4TCR welcomes on board a young artist who goes by the name of DJ Semah!
Semah has mastered the art of 'ardcore bangers and my goodness 'arrie, they're bangers alright! '
A New Hype combines the '31 Seconds' break with 1991 style Landlord riffs, big mean hoovers, some 'proper oldskool subs and samples of Blue Rinser boomers from the early 90s!
C'mon! layers 3 classic breaks together for some 91 inspired action. Like a young Doc Scott, Semah brings the Proto Jungle darkness with HUGE subs rumbling away, 303s and a bit of Italo piano to lighten things up here and there!
Crazy gets deep and melodic on the UK Hardcore tip with a tune similar to the kind of material Slipmatt played as the millenium approached.
On The Edge settles for a bit of dark 91 style with eerie samples, nice clean and crisp breaks plus some quite unique synth stabs alongside the tried and tested mentasms.
Reach Out has a Slammin' Vinyl vibe going on. Once again, Semah utilises some really interesting sounds that elevate this track above some of the more familiar choices. There is a nice replay of the piano from 'We Are Hardcore'with claps in the background plus some pad manipulation on the vox.
The Escapist channels that point in time just before Hardcore and Jungle broke apart with an amen heavy roller complete with Hardcore bleeps and Junglism combined in a tune that sounds like Billy Bunter used to spin it down Dalston Lane!!!
Big Thanks to DJ Semah for allowing us to release his music on the label. Trust me this is one lad your going to see going from strength to strength in the hardcore scene.

The Keith Flint thing, the sound of my youth. It's this inner core project volume 3. Thank you. You made a 41 year old remember the good old days. Noel Barnes
Fuck me what a record!!! Cant get a copy on vinyl anywhere, I missed out :-(
Heavy as fuck, all of it.Terminal Velocity is pretty huge however, Stay Tuned is, quite frankly, off the planet. Well done peeps - big up.
(If you repress or have any spare I'll pay good money in a second!) Milezee
