Hi everyone, With all this talk of that Dope Dragon mix up, I thought it a pertinent time to put out my appeal for information. I am currently in the process of collating information for a web site dealing with the music of Roni Size, DJ Krust, DJ Die, DJ Suv and others, and I need your help. This post is fairly big, but I'm trying to cover everything, so bear with me and apologies for the big bandwidth usage (although it's not unnecessary crap, this time!). To those of you who are not interested in said artists, I urge you take a look at my remixography below. If you have ANY release not listed featuring a Roni Size, Reprazent, Krust, DJ Die, DJ Suv, Bill Riley remix, I'd be eternally grateful for the full details of it(title, tracklisting, catalogue number etc). Especially if you buy stuff on CD... Anyway, here are my questions. 1)Dope Dragon 001. It's by Roni Size and DJ Krust and may be under their Mask/Gang Related alter ego. The A-Side would seem to be entitled Selecta Boy, but the flip I have no idea about. Also, is the release credited to Roni Size + DJ Krust or Gang Related / Mask. Plus, does anyone know if it recieved a repress along with most of the back catalogue? 2)Full Cycle 001. Conflicting reports on this one. I assumed the first release on Full Cycle was Scorpio's Music Box, but I have seen the record described as having "11:55 (Gangsta Mix)" on the A Side, and "11:55 (Roll Out Mix)" on the flip. Which is true, and on the label info, was the record credited to Scorpio or Roni Size and DJ Die? 3)Anyone know the true identities of Swabe or Bigger Star. At the moment I am assuming Bigger Star is DJ Suv and Swabe is DJ Die, until someone says otherwise. Any solid, or even shaky evidence to back this up or refute it would be appreciated. 4)I noticed DJ Krust's 'Warhead' appeared in the 1 In The Jungle chart last week. Has it had a full release yet, or is this advance promo's being sold? 5)Any up to date release dates/tracklisting info on: DJ Suv's "Freebeat" EP (Full Cycle) DJ Die and DJ Suv's "Music First" (Full Cycle) Scorpio's "Trouble" (V) Ed Rush and Opticals "The Funkster" (V) DJ Suv's "Output" (V) remixes of Krusts "Maintain" (V) 3 Way - Sargeant General (Dope Dragon) the Dope Dragon LP and the forthcoming Breakbeat Era stuff on XL *** Discography Appeal For the labels listed in the title of this posting I am missing the following releases. Full Cycle - 001 (Music Box), 004 (DNA's DNA) & 005 (Bill Riley's 'The Chill'). Dope Dragon - 001 (Selecta Boy), 003 (Oh My Gosh), 004 (Terradome EP), 007 (Reasons For Living) 008 (One People/Raid). V Recordings - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 (Jazz Note), 8, 11, 12, 13, 17. Philly Blunt - All except 5, 5R and 9. Chronic - All except 9 (Krust's "Shooks") and 12 (Ray Keiths "The Professional"). Fall all the above I really require *accurate and comprehensive label information* (bar Chronic, where label information isn't even provided!), but anything you have will be welcomed. In the case of Chronic I'd appreciate rumoured artist info (artists featured on Chronic so far may include DJ Krust, Dillinja, Ray Keith and Lemon D) or anything else you can come up with. *** Remixography Appeal I have the following releases which contain Roni Size, DJ Krust, DJ Die or DJ Suv remixes. If you have remixes that are not listed, or the CD counterparts of the ones that are (or in the case of promo 12"s, their officially released counterparts) please e-mail me with as much release info as you can give. As you will see, all of my stuff listed below is on vinyl...

I have the newly released Versatility comp, Breakbeat Science #1 and Telepathy which all have exclusive tracks on by said artists. Info on the Gang Related remix from the new Trouble on Vinyl "Code of the Streets" LP would be appreciated... Finally, if you know of anywhere where I may be able to get a better response, I'd appreciate it if you'd forward this message on, or tell me where would be best to post it. Cheers if you helped or wanted to help but couldn't, Gb. -- ______________________________________________________________________ Sammy Rawlins' "VIRTUAL JUKEBOX" Nescape Only (For Now) RA's & WAVs of *cylob* *squarepusher* *full cycle* *turn on* *lemon d* *etc* ----> http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Gallery/8587/4musjuke.htm plus The Busted Worldview of "LOOK WHAT THE CAT DRAGGED IN" ________________ http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/7691 __________________
