DJ Scud - Hardnoize Analogue Techno 1994
Hardcore breakbeat dilettante Toby Reynolds is the most successful of the several producers who've recorded EPs (and occasionally, CDs) for South London's Ambush Records. His version of impossibly dense, chaotic Amen madness is within sighting distance of DHR (Digital Hardcore), home of Alec Empire and Atari Teenage Riot. Reynolds, a frequent hardcore clubgoer, had begun producing in the mid-'90s and hooked up with DJ Aphasic (aka Jason Skeet), and the two founded Ambush in 1997. The second Ambush release was Aphasic and DJ Scud's co-production EP Welcome to the Warren. By 1999, the single "Mash the Place Up" had earned reviews in NME and The Wire. In 2001, he remixed a track for Asian Dub Foundation and released a split EP with Panacea. The Rephlex label did vinyl-phobic listeners a favor in 2003, issuing the Ambush! CD compilation.

Jungle was on the rise; the CJB was looming; The Spirals had just emigrated to France; but the bunkers and warehouses were still dripping with sweat, blistering hard analogue mayhem and pounding kick drums. Neck that wrap of speed, put on your urban camo and dance into the strobes!
