We are all back at work, after a very nice, long and relaxing weekend. Thank you, whoever decided to create a May Bank holiday. And we've got one coming up soon, in a few weeks. But today will be most people's first day back at work, and it is one of those days that will go on forever and ever. So we are in dire need of something that is energetic and will lift our spirits up. Obviously you immediately think of Scott Brown, or is that just me? I'm not the only one, come on!
But don't you worry. I know you love a bit of Evolution Records and Scott Brown. You cannot deny the impact this man has had on the UK Hardcore scene, and his legacy is still alive and kicking (and so is Scott Brown). I've reviewed many over the years, and it's still a blessing to hear those songs again. He's made some fantastic anthems over the years, and there's a few you'll find in Alex Threat's mix.
It's an hour and a half long, with a LOT of Scott Brown. I do mean a lot. But I don't mind. It's exactly what I needed to hear, WFH. Give me the tunes, keep them coming! It doesn't necessarily need to be Scott Brown anthems, but it wouldn't hurt us to hear more mixes like this one. Maybe we should introduce a daily hour of Scott Brown, that would make so many people instantly happier.
What did Alex use for his mix? Well, these songs:
Plus System - This Is How We Do It (Intro Mix)
Scott Brown - Detonated (Plus System Remix)
Scott Brown feat Cat Knight - All About You (Breeze & Styles Remix)
Scott Brown - Hardcore Hustler (Hardcorevolution Mix)
Q-Tex - Roll The Track
Scott Brown & Gillian Tennant - Every Time I Close My Eyes
Q-Tex - The First Parable
Robert Francis & Scott Brown - Time To Runaway (Scott Brown Mix)
Scott Brown - Synthetic Dreams
Scott Brown & DMO - Fall Into Your Arms
Interstate - Lift
Scott Brown & DMO - Really Need You
Scott Brown & DMO - I'm In Heaven
Scott Brown & DMO - Call My Name
Scott Brown - I Became Hardcore
Brisk & Brown - Back & Forth
Scott Brown - Neckbreaker (Essential Platinum Mix)
Scott Brown - Flow
Scott Brown - Definition Of A Badboy (Hardcorevolution Mix)
Scott Brown - I Call The Shots
This tracklist is a beautiful one. Yes, they are all Scott Brown records, but you can never have enough of Scott. It should definitely be a daily thing, hearing Scott Brown coming at you through your speakers. Would you agree or disagree?
Again, I love hearing Scott anthems, and there's 20 of them. The hour will fly by, and you will feel enlightened. The mix is great, but it's got some tiny errors in it. Nothing too major, more cross fading issues. But nothing to worry about.
It is always difficult to pick one favourite Evolution Records anthem, but today I'm feeling 'Time To Runaway'. Don't know why that one stood out for me today, but it did.
A very pleasant mix, and I'm happy to have discovered it. As the title suggests, this is part 1. Hopefully part 2 will be released soon. Preferably tomorrow, as most of us still need a boost, a kick in the nuts. We need the energy, we need more SCOTT. And we need a time machine, to go back in time. I miss these anthems so much, hearing them at events. Time goes too damn fast.
