The original sister label to Ram Records from the old Ram HQ studio in Essex, Liftin Spirit Records now celebrates it's 25th year with a special 'RELOADED' limited vinyl series of remastered classics, alongside rare and previously unreleased tracks since the beginning in1992.

DATs from artists such as Andy C, Ant Miles, Shimon, Joint Venture, Interrogator and Red One have been located in the archives. Also from the Ram & Liftin HQ came tracks for the Deep Seven label in 1993 and all these rare DAT masters have been located and now re-cut by Simon, the original Ram & Liftin vinyl masterer at 'The Exchange'. Initially, Deep Seven remasters will present on a printed white label and unreleased tracks will have a black label.

Cup-A-Cha: In 1995-96 the tracks were flowing out of the studio and Ant Miles would often sketch out beats while waiting for Andy C to return. Cup-A-Cha literally fell out of the computer one day and Andy felt it needed to go out as was, especially with the emotion laden piano trills towards the end; reminiscent of the sound of Foul Play who Ant adored. This track actually got Moving Shadow's attention and Ant was invited over to release various tracks as 'Higher Sense' as a result of the vibe of this tune.

The Futurist (Ant Miles Remix): Originally the title track on Red One's debut Liftin Spirit release in 1994, 'The Futurist' was indeed a sound and rhythm ahead of its time which inspired Ant Miles to load up the track for a special remix featured here. This went on to be backed with a remix of 'Alive 'N' Kickin' that Andy C and Ant created as 'Origin Unknown'. This mix captured the sound and vibe of The AWOL raves that are cherished greatly by all of D&B/Jungle heads of the time.

Soon Come:A collaboration between Ant and Andy C that went on to inspire yet another alias for them as 'Concept 2' on Liftin Spirit. Ram was often swamped with releases for months to come, so this found its way to the sister label. 'Concept 2' smashed it out the park in later years with tracks such as 'Cause and Effect'. A Desired State production in full effect.

Bad Influence: Originally a B side for Stakka & K-Tee on Liftin Spirit, being in a similar vein to 'The Futurist'. This track also became an anthem at The Awol nights back in the day with its heads down, haunting, roller vibes.

Its U: This track was a collaboration with 'Rainbow Country' and Ant Miles from the very early years 1991-92. This track was actually released on a first label attempt starting life as 'Etheric Records' that Ant later morphed into 'Liftin Spirit Records'. A Hardcore stormer of the era, smashed by DJ Randall and Grooverider back in the day.
Highlander: Again from way back in 1991, although under the guise of Desired State, this track featured on Ant's friends label 'Strategy Records' which was inspiring Andy & Ant to formulate their own labels.
Turntable Overload: A remix from 1992 by Andy C and Ant Miles for Royal T & DJ XL originally released on Strategy Records. Once again encapturing that early 1990's Hardcore sound that Strategy became well known for.

Ant Miles's last Hardcore production under the guise 'Ironik' comes in the form of 'Feel the Feeling'. Uplifting original vocals feature over pumping basses and funk breaks capturing that '93 Hardcore vibe. The flip 'Inspiration Station' again features original vocals encompassing the Junglistic Hardcore flavours emerging from that era.

* Whilst scouring through the Ram and Liftin Spirit master DATs, we have come across one of the most requested and unreleased tracks that never made it to vinyl. Shimon's 1995 track 'Flava' is now available to own after 26 years of obscurity. This Amen smasher that preceded 'Nightflight' also comes with a track that forms an early incarnation of what eventually morphed into 'Recharge'. This has been aptly named 'First Charge'. This release is anticipated to be one of the hottest and in demand slabs of wax emerging from the whole of the Liftin Spirit Reloaded series.

Further out from the early 90's these two 1998 tracks still exemplified the established D&B Junglist vibe that Ant Miles (Liftin' Spirits) adored and honoured. Only recently located in the DAT tape archives, it's focused production of twisted up organic bass lines has a foot in the present as well as the past.
