Old Skool Rave Mix #15 | 1991–1993 Hardcore & Breakbeat Classics (SL2, Manix, Nebula II, Ellis Dee)

Step back into the early 90s UK rave scene with this old skool hardcore DJ mix, packed with breakbeat hardcore, rave piano anthems and warehouse energy from 1991–1993.

This mix is a straight-up tribute to the golden era of UK hardcore rave, featuring heavyweight tracks from SL2, Nebula II, Sonz Of A Loop Da Loop Era, Manix, Terrorize, Ellis Dee & Swan-E and more. If you were sweating it out in a warehouse, under a motorway bridge, or clutching a whistle at 3am… this one’s for you.

Expect rolling breakbeats, hands-in-the-air piano riffs, euphoric vocals and pure rave pressure – the sound that laid the foundations for Jungle, Drum & Bass and UK dance music as we know it today.

I’ve mixed this in the spirit of how these records were meant to be played: energy-driven transitions, proper flow and zero filler. No gimmicks. Just timeless rave music doing what it does best.

💬 Let me know in the comments which track takes you straight back to the rave – or where you first heard this music.

If you’re into old skool rave, early hardcore, breakbeat hardcore, UK rave history and classic DJ mixes, you’re in the right place.

NOTE: If you're seeing ads during this video it's because the labels and artists are making money - not me! I do NOT monetise ANY of my DJ mixes. (Please don't hate the player - hate the game!)

I'D LOVE A COFFEE IF YOU'RE OFFERING 👍❤
