Fairly obsessed with Murk and frequently come across really great remixes and bits which perhaps don’t have classic status like various Funky Green Dogs/Liberty City/ interceptor stuff.
Eg I randomly came across this amazing tripped out 11 minute mix they did DSK-Feel so free (Murkatronic dub) - YouTube
What are your favourites beside those in the Reach For Me category?
All four mixes of this:
Lawks that’s a killer record
This is an Oscar solo tune, probably my favourite of the stuff he’s done on his own. Still play this a lot.
One day i’ll tell you the story of the time I nearly appeared on Top of the Pops pretending to be Oscar.
Ha, sounds like quite the anecdote! This is great - less clued up on Oscar solo stuff than Ralph - must get familiar!
I like this one a lot. Not sure if it was big at the time. There’s a dub too.
I’ll be honest, I don’t really rate their remixes at all. I think they did tons of crappy ones. As producers, they’re unmatchable, and I still play a lot of their OG productions. Funny how some studio bods are great remixers but mediocre producers (David Morales perhaps the best example) or good producers but mediocre remixers (see above). I can’t think of many that did both to a degree of competence (Steve Silk Hurley the standout IMO).
Having said that, I do still play this.
Yes true that talents seem to weight one way or another. Sometimes people also do too many remixes, and I think that’s probably the case with Murk.
That’s Romanthony one is belter.
I have no idea if this was big at the time (I was 12 and listening to Green Day) but this one is a favourite.
That was one of the last really good releases on their label, so yeah it’s known and appreciated. I just remembered another great remix(having slated them for their terrible remixes an hour ago!)
One from 93
That’s a firm favourite!!
They did a few tracks with Bobby Pruit singing. That man knows how to bellow.
This Oscar G solo project is a bit different from their trademark sound then:
This was a decent collection of their remixes.
Can get the vinyl cheap if needed. Otherwise best to look for other releases for digital as the CD was mixed.
This is the only remix of any of their originals that I may play over the original. By Angel Moraes.
I commissioned that mix! Angel was a lovely man, miss him terribly.
That Discipline one is a monster
Murk definitely had a winning formula of catchy vocal & bottom end. This was an Oscar G fav of mine from back in the day
Frankie Knuckles surely? He’s God Tier in my mind. 
Hmm, personally I think he’s borderline. Generally speaking, and there are obvious exceptions, his remixes were superior to the productions. The candidate I didn’t mention but should have is MAW, who did both brilliantly. Frankie definitely made some classics, but I’d put them in a generous handful, in comparison to his remixes.
Mood II Swing perhaps?
