Whilst looking through the endless Rurals DAT boxes Andy Compton recently found a batch of totally forgotten songs that never got released!  These Jams are from The Rurals farm/countryside era, 1995-2001 and many songs feature silky smooth the voice of Marie Tweek.  You can also hear the players Pete Morris, Charlie Hearnshaw, Gurner, Alex Pamplin, Matt Cundy, and of course Andy Compton on this album. The music was mainly made on a 8 track cassette machine, so the quality is very fuzzy, warm and lovely!  There was no editing functions on the analogue 8 track!, so expect the odd human mistake here and there.  Andy’s decided to make this the follow on album from ‘Farmyard Flavours’, which was released in 2000. There’s plenty more unreleased music from the archives coming soon as well! So, watch this space! released July 14, 2017 Vocals- Marie Tweek  Keys- Pete Morris, Andy Compton  Bass - Pete Gurner, Andy Compton  ...

Celebrating the landmark 25th anniversary of the influential house classic "City Streets", Brutha Basil has teamed up with Mark Francis to create the all new "City Streets 25". This re-creation of the early 90’s iconic classic compares what living in the city was like back then to what it’s like now. Basil's message is perfectly delivered with the passion and integrity needed to capture the thoughts of anyone listening. Produced by Jersey's own Mark Francis, "City Streets 25" is a modern day, percussive driven experience reminiscent of The Last Poets' style from the 70's. This package contains their Original mixes along with DJ Spen's Impressions in Asphalt versions that are the absolute bomb and aimed directly at the dance floor. This is a message that needs to be heard in these volatile times. Dance and Don't Sleep!! Written by Brutha Basil Produced & Arranged by Mark Francis Vocals by Brutha Basil Keys by Shaun Luca...
