Its thanks to him sprinkling magic onto Persian’s earlier project’s, they got to see the light of day! There’s not much that can get past the very skilled & international DJ Dlux when it comes to the underground sounds of London. A genuine specialist in underground music & production (Legendary Brain Records stable, Public Ememy, Kele Le Roc, Wiley) who is also known for mentoring some of todays Urban superstars.

Its due to his continual support of the ‘underdog’ that see’s this talented Producer, Engineer, DJ, Artist, being respected amongst his peers.
‘Monkey Kung Fu’ is just Genius! Written in 1991 on a Commodore with only 2 Meg!! Persian / Artist Formerly Known As P.P. / Persian Prince, is the First ‘Underground’ Iranian Artist from the West to appear on the Electronic Scene with an innovating unique sound that still release’s Tune after Tune!
Persian only had 4 tracks to work with in ‘Octamed’: All singing & chatting was recorded onto a Cassette Machine, before being sampled & used in the Amiga. “When 8 Bit, low quality, crusty sample rate ruled the day; you had to be really inventive with what little you had. Limited sampling time forced you to be Creative”
This E.P. displays DJ Dlux & Persian’s writing ability from a young age to write Big Tunes!

A True piece of Hardcore History, Reminiscent of the early Rave era, a time when there were no rules. ‘Hardcore’, just before the fruition of what Jungle came to be. Experimentation in Rave music was at its utmost: chopping up 8 Bit beats & breaks re–inventing a fresh Drum Sound, Bassline’s that make your eye socket’s shake, idea’s that followed no rules. This is some of that missing History...
Originally produced in 1992, this was scheduled to be Dlux’s first official solo release on ‘Brain’ records. With lots of hype about ‘The Darkness e.p.’ (Bizzy B & DJ Dlux) 1993, The Fontage E.P. release was delayed, & finally shelved, making way for Dlux’s updated sounds of ‘The Realtime E.P.’ which got released back in 1994 on Brain Progression.
The Fontage E.P. is Dlux’s earliest material to be featured on the ‘Lost Dat’s’ series. The Dat’s have since corroded beyond repair, this was salvaged & lovingly restored & remastered, so this piece of History could get an outing on ‘Existence Is Resistance’.
Don’t miss out on this authentic piece of music history from a true Underground legend!

Kicking off the EP we have a Jungle Techno track from 2007 ‘Revolution’ made by Persian & DJ Staf, ‘Kool London’s finest DJ’...
‘D dub retwist’, see’s a minimal Break Heavy Dub amidst a Trippy background soundscape from a Japanese Movie.

‘Milton 21’ This track dates from 2001, this is a rare glimpse of what Jungle Techno may have become, a direction of futurist sound play amidst Bone Crunching Heavy Bass! Again, Genre pioneering stuff, from True Underground Artists.
