It is Wednesday, and I'm off. And so is the wife. We had to do some last minute shopping, and due to COVID we still had a few annual leave days left, hence why we took today as our shopping day. So while everyone else is working, we decided to have a day to ourselves. And after a day of hard shopping, I decided to search for a mix (with a tracklist), and this mix had to contain some Jumpstyle anthems. After scrolling through a few (without a tracklist) I stumbled across this mix by DJ Henk. God knows who DJ Henk is, because I don't.
His last mix on Soundcloud was 9 years ago, so I'm guessing he stopped Doing, or lost access to his account, or used another alias. Who knows. If anyone knows DJ Henk, tell him that it's been too long, and we need more Jumpstyle mixes. Until then, let's focus on one of the seven mixes he uploaded nearly a decade ago.
So, let's see what DJ Henk used for this 2012 Jumpstyle mix. If you are reading this, it must mean you are a Jumpstyle fan too, and miss the sound as much as I do. So this mix might be a flashback to the glorious anthems which one day dominated the charts. As the style disappeared quicker than you can imagine, there's not enough time for me to go into detail on how much I have missed when it was hot. And therefore this mix contains records I've never heard before.
Here's the list:
Lethal MG - Voices Of E (Q Ic Remix)
DJ Dess - R8
Fuzzy Hair & AM feat Joe Taff - Mad World (Juno's Remix)
Marlon S vs DJ Mars - Slammin' & Jammin'
Teka B - Scratching DJ
Karl F - Lies
Davoodi - 9mm
Bad Boyz - Jump Up!
DJ Ba Back & Greg Kalas - Fuck The Poing
Darius, Finaly & Shaun Baker - Show Me 10 (Jenns O Jumpstyle Mix)
For A Jumper - For An Angel
Lobotomy Inc. - Sliced Beat
Mark With A K - How To Read
CM Traxx - Needle Destruction (Lethal MG Bootleg)
Demoniak & Jones - Hello (Bootleg)
Yes yes yes! It might be a tad cheesy, but oh so delicious! I always say that it's a sound from the Millennium, but Jumpstyle really increased popularity around 2005. And I'm so happy I lived when it was big and hot. Why, you might ask? Well, because it brings a huge smile on my face. Memories galore.
I do love myself a bit of cheese, unless it's too cheesy, and I have to literally turn stuff off. Thankfully Henk did not play too cheesy stuff, but 'For An Angel' is cheesy, and so is 'Hello', and maybe a bit 'Mad World' too. To me the darker stuff is more appealing. Especially Lobotomy Inc.'s 'Sliced Beat'. That's some underground Techno sounding Jumpstyle. Me like.
A very nice mix. Thanks Henk for this mix. A few tiny mixing errors, but nothing major. And also a trip down memory lane. Loving it!
