The sounds of the summer suburbs circa 1999.
JEDI
ED CASE- SOMETHING IN YOUR EYES (RED ROSE RECORDINGS)
This was a brooding effort from Ed Case, touches a little deeper than many UKG tracks. Lest it be forgotten. I notice this got a rehash for the bassline house lot last year, and it sounds gash compared to the original.
COLOUR GIRL- JOYRIDER (4 LIBERTY)
Girl anthem here. I was speaking to Simon Reynolds (as one does) and he pointed out, that the approval system for UK Garage always seems to centre on the the opinion of the 'laydeez', which is perhaps unlike any other underground music.
MASTERS AT WORK- TO BE IN LOVE [MJ COLE REMIX] (DEFECTED)
In my humble opinion MJ's finest 'early' hour.
DARKSIDE
DJ ZINC- KINDA FUNKY (BINGO)
Not strictly darkside by todays standards, but definately went off down your local underage gig at the bingo hall.
RESEVOIR DOGS- THE BUDDAH FINGER (RESERVIOR DOGS INC)
Sampled some old Depth Charge record, itself probably sampling some old kung-fu movie. 'Went off' lots.
LIVEWIRE- DEVASTATE (HARRY LIME)
Had some bait sample on it but didn't take away from drop and subsequent bassline.
Make sure and go and support these artists by buying these relea... sorry I'm trying to keep a straight face.

how about you post some of these tracks?
taaaa!
I love the K Warren remix of Something In Your eyes, probably better than the original one... Even I've always been a great fan of Ed Case's sound (aaah Trust We, his suburban lick remix...).
DJ ZINC - Kinda Funky is one of my favorite track ever (I must admit that I'll hesitate with 138trek)...
Can I Add my contribution
Tuff Jam - Need Good Love
:D
Zed Bias - Neighboroud (2K mix)
:D
;)
Cheers from France
Nothing by Dr Venom on there? :S haha

Good classic choices though
Hi Etienne :P

How can SFA's Flowers not have made the list? Maybe it came later than summer 1999? Otherwise there's no excuse really.
The remix of Shola Ama - Imagine was a goodie as well.
Aaaaand K-Ci and JoJo - Tell Me It's Real. That was a beast.
I had them on vinyl. Ha, life?
Oh and Poison was well good. But I can't remember who that's by...
Wasn't it DJ Luck & Shy Cookie who done Poison?
Got some good UK G tracks there. 'To Be in Love (Mj's mix)' is one of my personal faves to this day! Unlock with Kinda funky and a few more of the Bingo tracks.
Mikeyvaliant, I used to be on Uptown (More UKGarageworldwide.com - Was admin there), but im sure i remember you from Uptown / UKGWW!
