A massive thank you to the Legendary
'2 Bad Mice' for there awesome guest mix on Oldskool Sundays Radio Show on: www.renegaderadio.co.uk
2 Bad Mice bought us some the biggest dance/rave anthems of the early 90's including the massive track 'Bombscare' from the early 90’s.
Do not be alarmed this is a Bombscare...
2 Bad Mice formed in England in 1991, and was comprised of Sean O'Keeffe, Simon Colebrooke, & Rob Playford, also owner of Moving Shadow records. 2 Bad Mice were widely credited as among the first UK hardcore acts to begin heavily incorporating breakbeats into their style. They were a staple on the early to mid-90s hardcore scene, and were instrumental in the music's steady mutation into jungle/dru...m'n'bass.
The group's very influential approach to sampled beats, cutting them up into shards of rhythm and rearranging them in novel combinations (first appearing in mature form on the 1992 hit Bombscare), is generally considered the blueprint from which jungle's characteristic manipulation of breaks was assembled.
Although 2 Bad Mice for the most part stopped producing as the hardcore scene began to wane, a best-of compilation of the group's work appeared on the American Sm:)e Communications label in 1995. Playford continues to record as under the alias Timecode, while O'Keeffe records under the name Deep Blue and as a member of Black Rain.
In 1994 DJ and producer Paul Rhodes alongside Rob Haigh (Omni Trio) remixed Bombscare under the nom de plume of The Parliament Squares. This record was sold to record shops as a (fake) US import and sold 3,000 copies in one week alone.
