Signals From Southwark #25: Rushathon 2010 – A Mix by Mark Hawkins (http://signalsfromsouthwark.com/2010/06/23/signals-from-southwark-25-rushathon-2010-a-mix-by-mark-hawkins/)
"Dj Rush was always one of the artists that was really inspiring me when I first started trying to write my own music. Off-kilter, wacky, way out, with a big (6′6″) Stage presence, he could even be considered as the Godfather of so-called “wonky techno”. For me, back around 1997, that was the appeal for me, trax that were so swung and out there that it almost sounded like the record was out of time with itself, particularly displayed in this mix with track 33 “You’ll Catch On” taken from his 1999 release on Djax-Up-Beats which was aptly named “Swingin’ the drums”- Yes, it’s not one of my bum mixes, the track is SUPPOSED to sound like that!
Over 2 hours, the wide variety of Rush’s styles are displayed, Chicago house, Jack Tracks, Disco Techno and straight up Banging stuff are all here. Rush is often easily dismissed, with people saying “oh, that’s just Schranz”, and whilst in recent years he has often gravitated towards the harder stuff, it’s easy to overlook the fact that many of his early works were highly influential, and always full of character and showmanship, which is often lacking in electronic music.."
