If I was pushed to name the one DJ set that inspired me the most both with my musical tastes and style of playing records on record players I would have a list of 5 sets. 4th on that list would be Grooverider @ Sterns 1992. Why 4? Because this was the 4th live 1992 DJ set I had heard and so as a result of this, this was the first time I heard 90% of the tracks in this set.

The track selection was decent and you can clearly see how Grooverider was trying to change the sound through his track selection. Early on you see a strong reggae flavor going on while later in the set theres a real darkside vibe. When Oaysis "Jungle Mash Up" comes on the MCs go nuts and Rider abruptly ends the track by going into DJs Anthem. I have a feeling those MCs were Oaysis and Rider didn't like the MCing and/or the track so he "shut them down" so to speak. I found it surprising the amount of chipmonks and happy hardcore sounds in this set. Previously I didn't identify Grooverider with any sort of happy hardcore sound so this was a treet and it made me like him a bit more.

It took me about 12 years to collect this vinyl. I actually could have made this set last summer but I made "Summer Vibe pt.8" instead which is the same bunch of records mixed the way I would have mixed them. I have yet to upload that but I plan to this summer.

It cost me somewhere around $800.00 USD to get these records due to the fact that I paid top dollar for most of them on Discogs.com. The New Era remix cost me an unheard of $75.00USD+ whatever sercharges for currency conversion and shipping ($100.00 at the end). I normaly don't pay this much for records but I really wanted to make this mix. Also I wouldn't have even wanted to have done this mix if it wasn't for DJ Nee who made an extremely authentic remake of the classic unreleased version of Tronik House "Straight otta Hell". It has been said to have been made by Simon Bassline Smith however after hearing this remake I wonder if Nee made it in the first place!

I did my best to mix these records like Grooverider however in some places Rider mixed very badly so I did not copy that aspect of his mixing.

This August I plan to upload my newest and old unpublished mixes at the rate of Kleez-One so if you like this stuff, keep checking my threads.

Related personal trivia about the enjoyment of this set:
For a while while in collage I was working at Radio Shack and they had this rip off of a Casio keyboard
in the store. At one point I was playing with it and I discovered that it had the sound from Dica & Big Vern "100 M/PHr" so I was playing the tune in the store on the keyboard till I was scolded, good time! Now I have to track down some of those Radio Shack Casio keyboard copies on Ebay.
 
Kudos to you, my man. You are a genuine enthusiast, seeing how you've gone through much trouble (and expense) to acquire this collection. I met Grooverider at The End shortly after he got out of jail in Dubai, 2008. Keep up the good work mate!
