Zomby | Where Were U in 92? Mixtape

Where was I in 92? Earning a living for the first time in my life, and thus both shacked up in an apartment in Partick with more weed than Cheech or Chong, and making regular forays to Edinburgh to ‘access the shapes’ in front of the speaker stack at ‘Pure’. Yes, 92 was a vintage year.

I’m fully aware that pounding deeper back into the 90s put me at risk of sounding like a ravetastic hasbeen – however, despite best efforts, it seems I’m powerless to stop myself from being dragged back there. M.I.A. asked me (directly, natch) the question very nicely last year on Kala’s ‘XR2’, and Zomby once again pestered me on this year’s Werk debut of the same name. What goes around, comes around, and sure as fate, it slaps you in the face with a dayglo brick.

Zomby‘s ‘Where Were U in 92?’ is an unadulterated, 100% more hypercolour than hypercolour, Italo-piano stabbing plummet back to those halycon days; almost impossible to consume without experiencing a rush of adrenalised nostaligia to the head. This Dazed & Confused mixtape gives you just the right ’92 hit that you need to make the appalling spectacle of Chrissmukkah all the more bearable. Insert into ears and dance like an atheistic lunatic this Xmas day.
