This episode salutes one of the wildest and most instantly recognizable labels of the 90s underground: Tinrib Recordings.
Founded by Captain Tinrib (Jon Bell) around 1995, this wasn’t your polished trance label, it was hard house with a grin and a gut punch. Tinrib fused hard house, acid techno, and hard trance with a hint of circus chaos into a sound that was as theatrical as it was floor-destroying.
Everything about Tinrib screamed personality, from its cheeky artwork and nautical puns to its unapologetic wall-of-sound production. It was the sound of late-night warehouses and too-loud systems, where the fun was as important as the drop.
This mix celebrates that era: the Captain, the crew, and the records that made the Tinrib fish swim forever upstream!
