J's Kinda Music Almost Everyday

Title: Mooki!
Artist: Noggin vs Kaya
Album: Mooki!
Date: 1997

Happy Hardcore Rave Saturday track. This was an early brush with staying up til hours to make a track for no other reason than it has to be made NOW. DJ Kaya aka Brewer was over, and I have to say, this dude was the biggest champion of techno/electronic music in our little Texas town. So basically we had only each other to talk to / jam with (the majority of kids at school were still totally hung up on Smashing Pumpkins and it would take a little Crystal Method and a lot of Moonshine [not to mention likely doses of x] to start bringing them around).
We sat down at the pc with Buzz generating sounds and then sequencing these loops in Acid. I’ll never forget how much fun we had that night, and how absolutely crazy it felt to go from idea to 100% fully realised (and packaged!) cassette-single in just a few hours. We celebrated by going to Jack-In-The-Box, getting some milkshakes then heading to the movie theatre parking lot and doing donuts in Kaya’s souped-up Trans Am (the closest thing to a spaceship I’ve ever been in, seriously).
I think Kaya actually ending up parlaying this one happy-hardocre single into a pretty fruitful dj career in the late 90s. Props buddy! This one’s for you.
