5 tracks from 1991 Rave/Hardcore mix
Hello,
I recorded a mix of mostly Rave/Hardcore tracks from radio station WITR here in Rochester, NY back in 1991. The show was Ultrapulse with DJ Deep Dish (he is now known as Nev). There are a number of tracks I would love to identify. I tried cutting together the most relevant/distinctive parts. If anyone wants to hear different parts of the tracks please let me know and I will post them.
Maybe this one is not technically a hardcore track (Hi NRG? House?) but I'd like to know what it is... main distinguishing feature is the vocal sample "Givin' it all I've got". I have heard the bassline at :19 in the sample used on other tracks.
ID: Norty Cotto "Giving It All I Got" from DJ's Delite - Volume 1 (12")
The next one does not have a bassline, just a looped break layered with samples from lots of sources. I know the melody at the beginning is from a house track; Frankie Bones also used that sample on "And the Break Goes Again" from Bonesbreaks 5. Then at :07 there's a sample from MC Lyte, "Name is crack" (from I Cram to Understand U). Then at :16 it's the intro of "Hall of Mirrors" by Kraftwerk, back to the house sample, then followed by "Take Me Away (A-Capella)" by Bridgett Grace at :25. I don't know what the rap at 1:02 is sampled from.
Note that the DJ starts mixing in a track with heavy bass at :25. I am not particularly interested in that one (which features a sample of someone saying "sometimes I feel like I could explode").

Track number 3 is an Amen-driven hardcore track with "murder" and "this is London" samples. One of my favorites and I hope someone can ID it for me.
ID: Sonic Experience "M.T.S (murder those speakers mix)" on Protien (12")
On track 4, the DJ played the acapella version of "Don't Hold Back!" by the Blapps Posse from :23 to 1:07, so that is not part of the track I'm looking for. The track does have a sample of Liz Torres saying "no more mind games" and the track also periodically samples the drum loop from a techno track I have (don't know the name of that one either but it's not important to me).
ID: Arthur Baker - Silly Games (12", Promo)
The last one is pure instrumental and unfortunately the DJ is talking over most of the unmixed part. This one is a very intriguing track.
ID: Indo Tribe – I've Become What You Were (Insider Mix)
Thanks everyone!
